KACRAN call on other Governors to emulate governor Buni’s directive on the palliative distribution committee to be fair and just.
We absolutely believe that, with the exception of very small children, all Nigerians are fully aware/feeling the painful negative impact of total removal of oil subsidy by His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCON, President Federal Republic of Nigeria and his plan to give palliative to about 50, 000,000 Nigerians in order to minimally reduce the untold shardship brought by the removal of the said subsidy.
Nigerians will recall that, there was a successful meeting held in Lagos sometime last month between our President and Governors where they mutually agreed that, the palliative will be distributed to Nigerians through our State governors probably for the fact that, the rulling party is in control of more than twenty states in the country and because the State Governments are more closer to the grassroots than the federal government and that the President wanted to create harmonious working relation with all the state governors of the federation regardless of their party affiliation or for the reason only best known to the President and his close aides.
So, for what ever reason that led to the federal government agreeing to allow the states to hundle the issuance of the palliative under discussion to their subjects that is not the center or point of our discussion.
But, before we state what motivated KACRAN to issue this press release, let us hurriedly and categorically state that if there is any time in the over two hundred years of the history of Nigeria where most of the people of the country are disparately/blindly in need of palliative, it is this time around. Sincerely speaking, Nigerians are currently faced with serious pressing problems on how to survive because the prices of food stuff and social amenities are on daily basis rise beyond reach of the common man.
And because of the above mentioned reason, million Nigerians as we are talking now are finding it extremely difficult to afford one meal on daily basis.
We have being sorrowfully/sympathetically receiving calls from our members from various states intimating us that, sometimes some Nigerians will stay for several days without cooking food in their houses.
More so, it is an open secret that hundred thousands Nigerians, if not millions, are now painfully forced to resort to begging for their survival.
And it is on such sad development that His Excellency, President Bala Ahmed Tinubu due to his magnanimity and serious concern on the aforementioned sad situation that, in his bid to drastically reduce the numerous sudden hardship caused by the total oil subsidy removal introduced a plan to massively distribute palliative to million Nigerians.
We are also aware that most of our state governors have already started distributing palliative through various ways or means.
In Yobe State for example, His Excellency, Hon Mai Mala Buni, CON, (Chiroman Gujba) in his good intention to see that all people of the state regardless of religion, tribe, political inclinations are treated justly and equitably, wisely formed the palliative distribution committee whose membership were drawn from various Political Parties in the state; labour Union; NUJ; Lawyers; people with disabilities; Women Associations etc and warned them to give palliative to all Yobean and those who are living in the state without segregation.
Impressingly, when swearing in the palliative distribution committee in Damaturu, the State Capital, Governor Mai Mala Buni boldly stated that, the palliative is for all people of the state so that the members must make sure that they carry out their assignment with objectivity and fear of God so that they will be fair and just to all.
In view of the above positive development which Hon Mai Mala Buni displayed an his examplary Sterling leadership quality, we of Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria (KACRAN), wish to appeal to all Nigerian state Governors to kindly emulate Buni’s example to graciously advise their distribution committees to make sure that they treat their people objectively, because, it is only by so doing that all Nigerians will enjoy the gesture of His Excellency President Bala Ahmed Tinubu, who wanted to cushion the suffering of millions Nigerians resulting from the total oil subsidy removal.
In conclusion we want to use this medium to express our deepest appreciation and commendation to our able Deputy Governor, Hon Idi Barde Gubana (Wazirin Fine), and Secretary to the State Government, Alh Baba Malam Wali mni, for their total commitment towards making sure that the palliatives are taking to the door steps of good people of Yobe State to insure the workability of the strong directive given by His Excellency Hon Mai Mala Buni.
So help us God

KARAN Appeals for Support for the ministry of Livestock Development

KARAN Appeals for Support for the ministry of Livestock Development
By: Michael Mike
The Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria (KACRAN) has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to urgently support the Ministry of Livestock Development in getting its office ready.
The association decried that nearly eight months after the establishment of this crucial ministry, the renovation of the permanent office allocated to it for its operations is yet to be started, noting that this delay has impeded the
implementation of essential policies and programmes aimed at promoting the livestock sector and its value chains across Nigeria.
KACRAN, in a statement on Saturday, signed by its National President, Hon. Khalil Bello said: “When the Ministry was established on July 9, 2024, we, Nigeria’s pastoralists, viewed it as a long-awaited answer to our prayers and a significant step towards addressing over 50 years of
neglect in the livestock sector.
“However, the lack of progress since then has been disheartening, preventing the Ministry from fulfilling its critical role in ensuring food security and contributing to
the national economy.
“Currently, the Ministry functions more as a Directorate of Animal Husbandry Services, lacking the resources and infrastructure necessary for it to operate independently and effectively.
“Despite the critical nature of its mission, the allocated office space/building remains unrenovated and a timeline for starting the renovation or completion has not been provided. This situation severely hampers the ability of the Honorable Minister, Permanent Secretary, Directors and staff to coordinate effectively and execute
their responsibilities.
“Moreover, the financial resources allocated to the Ministry for the 2025 fiscal year are
insufficient for the Ministry to achieve its objectives.
“KACRAN is deeply concerned that without immediate attention to these challenges, the foundational goals of the Ministry will remain unattainable. As the political landscape evolves, it is vital that the focus remains on policy timely implementation rather than allowing the future of this very important Ministry to be muddling through uncertainties.
“We urge President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to prioritize the renovation and operation of the Ministry’s office so that the Honourable Minister and staff can effectively promote and develop the livestock sector.
Additionally, we implore the President to invest significantly in the livestock
sector, for enabling the Ministry to actively engage in ensuring food security, enhancing the nation’s GDP, and reducing heavy reliance on imported milk and food products, which costs Nigeria billions of
dollars annually.
“Finally, KACRAN expresses gratitude to President Tinubu for appointing Professor Muhammadu Attahiru Jega as an Advisor on Presidential Livestock Reform Programmes. We hope that under his
guidance, the Ministry can achieve its goals and bring tangible benefits to Nigeria’s pastoralists and the wider population.”

Security operatives in Kaduna have rescued a former Executive Chairman of Kaura Local Government Area, Seimon Matthias, from a kidnap attempt at his Kagoro residence.
Intelligence sources told Zagazola Makama that the attack occurred on February 14 at about 11:00 p.m. when an unspecified number of kidnappers stormed Matthias’ residence, shooting sporadically in an attempt to abduct him.
However, the sound of gunfire attracted the attention of police officers and other security operatives stationed nearby, leading to a fierce exchange of fire.
The assailants, overwhelmed by superior firepower, abandoned their victim and fled to the mountains.
Police said the victim was rescued unhurt, and a joint operation involving the Army and Kaduna Vigilante Service (KadVS) was ongoing to flush out the criminals from the surrounding bush areas.
