e’s anti-grazing law.The bill, which was recently signed into law by the state government, aimed at checking persistent clashes between the farmers and the herders in the state.In a suit marked M/744/2019, they asked the court to declare the new law as illegal, null and void.
They urged the court to grant them an order of perpetual injunction “restraining all the respondents, whether by themselves, their servants, agents, officers or otherwise from carrying out any acts or omission which is likely to aid the enactment of the anti-grazing bill into law as this would amount to a denial of the fundamental rights guaranteed under the constitution of Nigeria.”
They also prayed the court to declare the law as a coordinated attempt to hinder their means of livelihood against section 33 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended. They asked the court to grant them N100,000 against the respondents jointly and severally for the violation of their fundamental rights.The herders said, “As a matter of cultural heritage, open rearing or grazing of livestock, having been passed onto generations to generations, is the life and economy of the Fulani group on which the Fulani survives.”
The Open Grazing Bill, which was mooted in October 2019, prohibits open grazing of livestock in Oyo State.
If all Southwestern states in Nigeria can do this, it will be a great thing and we serve as a control measure for them dragthemoutofsouthwest

Move them.out of that state immediately, health hazard disforestation, accidental pollutions, threats to human life, traffic obstructions, farm damages should be on Oyo state sue. Drive them all out, withdraw all their opportunities immediately sack them from available places now
This is what happens when an illiterate rules. Even terrorists will think they have legal rights to what is not theirs
Nonsense, they should go and protest in their state.
This isn't funny at all. What's the contribution of this people to the GDP of Nigeria?.
Oyo is not Benue state.
Niger delta youths are fighting to control oil in their land. Herdsmen are fighting to take over lands that are not theirs simply because a fellow herdsman is at the helm of affairs in Nigeria. Surprisingly, many southern non herdsmen are helping the herdsmen succeed in d agenda.
I wonder wat ppu like DeeOneAyekooto think wen they read ds kind of confidence exhibited by terrorist!
But up north y’all can make laws that violate the fundamental human rights of non-Muslims there? Why always the double standard? If Nigeria is a truly democratic and secular state, what is Hisbah doing? Let the south enact their own laws as they deem fit.
Terrorists suing their victims. Chai
