President Bola Tinubu on Saturday met Gov. Hyacinth Alia of Benue to receive reports on the state of affairs in the state.
Briefing State House correspondents, Alia said the neeting with the president focused on the return of peace in Benue and the return of the internally displaced persons to their ancestral lands.
On ranching, the governor said that the state was being innovative about it because of its peculiarity as the food basket of the country. “The farmers will provide bountious and nutritious fodder for the herds of cattle as well as make some revenue for themselves. So, you see the idea of ranching will be a win-win situation for us in the state,” Alia said.
“Similarly, we are engaged in a campaign for the AFCON championship for Nigerians to support the athletes to victory. It is called the ‘Let’s do it again’ campaign.”The sports minister said he had no intention of tampering with the technical crew of the Super Eagle “for now”.
