The Osun State Government on Thursday outrightly rejected the cattle colony being proposed by the Federal Government (FG).
The state Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Adelani Baderinwa, in Osogbo said the state government would not buy into the idea.
Baderinwa disclosed that Governor Rauf Aregbesola had foreseen the kind of herders-farmers’ crisis being witnessed in many states and had since established a committee comprising of government officials, farmers and herdsmen to resolve whatever issue that might lead to conflict.
He said the committee had been in existence for almost two years, saying it had resolved thousands of cases, stressing that that was the reason why there had not been herder- farmers’ clashes in the state.
