The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to step up on security in order to stop herdsmen killings.

They made this call following the recent attack of Fulani herdsmen in Taraba state.

Speaking to newsmen in Niger state, NANS President, Chinonso Obasi declared that the Cattle Colony proposed by the federal government is dead on arrival and would not hold as government have no right in placing priority in any group of farmers.

He faulted the delay of government towards ensuring that security is sustained in states that are under the attack of herdsmen.

Obasi said: “A government that cannot proffer security to the people cannot be proud to call itself a government. NANS is charging the President to step up in security, he should stop being presidential and listen to the yearning of the people.

“There are issues and aot of questions that are being unanswered and instead of discussing them, they are busy discussing about 2019 election. It is only those who are alive that will vote in 2019.”

Speaking on the Cattle Colony proposed by the federal government, he said that government have no business doing business.

He called on the government to create an enabling business environment and leave how to run the business to individuals saying that, “a farmer is a farmer. Cattle rearing is farming and there should not be any priority placed on any group of farmers. Imposing cattle herdsmen on the people is not the way forward.”
