Co-Chairman of the Presidential Livestock Reforms Committee, Prof ATTAHIRU JEGA, on Thursday presented a 152-page report to President BOLA TINUBU, detailing reform measures for the livestock sector.
Part of the report recommended a ten-year transformation process through which Nigerians and the government can harness gains in the sector, including the recommendations on how best to resolve issues that result in the farmers-herders crisis amicably.
The report also includes operational guidelines for the Federal Ministry of Livestock Development, a new ministry created by the TINUBU administration.
JEGA equally recommended that livestock grazing and ranching should continue side by side, while the country promotes a long-term objective of having an intensive livestock sector.
Recall that Prof. JEGA who is the former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)was appointed Co-Chairman of the Presidential Livestock Reforms Committee in July this year.
