Former Aviation minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has lambasted Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello for dedicating 15,000 hectares of land in the state for the proposed cattle colony.
The Federal Government had proposed the establishment of cattle colonies as panacea to frequent herdsmen/farmers clashes across the country.
While many northern states expressed interest in hosting the cattle colonies Kogi’s neighbours in the North Central zone, Benue and Plateau had refused to be part of the arrangement.
However, Bello said his state would benefit from the cattle colony and earmarked land for it.
But in a statement on his verified Twitter handle, Fani-Kayode said the Kogi governor was “looking for trouble and courting disaster” with the move.
He said, “Gov.Yahaya Bello of Kogi state is looking for trouble and courting disaster. His gratuitous insult on hardworking and tithe-paying Christians has not gone unnoticed.If he does not sheath his sword we will unleash a verbal blizkrieg on his ugly head from which he may never recover.”
