While announcing the online voters’ registration on Wednesday at the Association’s 4th annual general congress in Damaturu, Bello disclosed that; “We’re committed to bring an end to the perennial conflicts between farmers and herders in the nation.”
On the peaceful unity of herders and farmers, he said that the Federal and State Governments should collaborate to work and make sure that they reclaim the encroached grazing reserves, including the blocked used up cattle routes.
