Dr. Umar Abdullahi Ganduje, the governor of Kano State, has issued a formal warning to Fulani herders not to engage in cattle rustling or banditry, warning that “anyone caught in such deplorable crimes will face death penalty or life sentence.”

Governor Ganduje made the remarks while vaccinating one million cows in the state’s Kadawa Garun Mallam Local Government Area during the weekend’s ceremonial launch of the State-Wide Mass Cattle and Small Ruminant Vaccinations.

“Kano has seen peace and progress since our deal with Fulani herders to end cattle rustling, while government continues to do good for the herders,” he said. “Any move to get involved in criminalities would be met with heavy penalties.”

Ganduje reminded them that his government had done a fantastic job in Kano with Fulani herders, from creating a full Ruga town for them to ensuring that they had annual vaccines, and that the herders had no cause to be criminals.

The Governor reminded them that they vaccinated 703,000 cattle and 664,000 ruminants last year and had no infectious outbreaks, prompting them to set a goal of producing one million healthy cattle.

“We have succeeded overtime in combating Cattles Rustling and Banditry in Kano, and anyone who entertains the thought of being engaged in either rustling or banditry will be imprisoned for life or sentenced to death without the option of repentance.”

He went on to say that open grazing is an old model that is progressively being phased out, thus Kano has recently embraced a new model known as Ruga settlement, which provides economic viability to herders.
