Group tasks farmers, herdsmen on peace vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
The Chairman of the association, Mr David Boka, made the appeal on Saturday at the stakeholders meeting of the community at Ezhiba, Akun Development Area of Nasarawa State.He said that the appeal has become imperative considering the commencement of farming activities in some parts of the North and the importance of peace to the socio-economic development of any society.
Boka explained that without peaceful co-existence between the farmers, neighbours and herdsmen, agricultural production and the socio-economic development of the country would be affected negatively, hence the need for all to embrace peace. “Your investment could be in form of initiating people-oriented projects in this community or any positive way that can bring development to the community and the state at large,” Boka said.
Chief Paul Angbre, the Village Head of Ezhiba, called on his subjects and Nigerians to embrace peace and tolerate one another, irrespective of their affiliations.
