Group calls for increased funding of Livestock Development Ministry
To address the escalating insecurity in Nigeria, Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria, KACRAN, has called on the National Assembly to allocate adequate funds to the newly created Ministry of Livestock Development.
The Association through its National President, Khalil Moh’d Bello, made the call on Friday in a statement made available to newsmen indicating that prioritizing the Ministry is essential for fostering peace and stability in the country.
It said insufficient funding could severely hinder the ministry’s ability to fulfill its responsibilities, which would have negative repercussions for the entire country.
KACRAN added that the livestock sector is vital for the country’s economy, contributing significantly to revenue generation and providing essential products consumed by nearly all Nigerians.
It noted that the Ministry currently lacks essential infrastructure necessary for its effective operation, hence providing special consideration and favorable budget allocations is key to ensure the ministry’s success.
“We are appealing to members of the National Assembly to consider multiplying or tripling the proposed budget for this ministry. Such action will pave the way for increased agricultural production, job creation, economic growth, resolution of conflicts between herders and farmers, and the establishment of lasting peace in Nigeria”, it appealed.
The Association also called on all Northern Governors to expedite the establishment of similar ministries in their states.
Recall that, Borno and Yobe States have since replicated the federal government’s gesture by establishing Ministries of Livestock Development.
