To sign a law is very simple, it doesn\u2019t make sense to put out a law you cannot enforce.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe best way of enforcing a law is to bring everybody together to be part of that law. We have a crisis in our country, it is deeply rooted, there are different causes why these are happening, let us go to the root of the causes and resolve it from there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople have said that we have lived a hundred years together in harmony before now, why are we now having this problem today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we don\u2019t go to the reason why, then we will be scratching the surface. Let us start by understanding why we are having this challenge. To sign a law is very easy, it doesn\u2019t make sense to put out a law that you cannot enforce.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe anti-grazing law in my view is to deal with some perception. I just want to tell you that this is not an issue between Christians and Muslims, it is not an issue between north and south, it is not an issue between Edo people and Fulani people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs long as we have decided that we will eat meats and drink milk, we will now have to sit down and rearrange the business on how we will get the people who are producing the meat on how they must organise themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us not play politics with this issue, let us deal with this issue honestly and openly. There are security implications because some people have now joined and using these herders to perpetrate insecurity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The governor said there are cattle herders who are carrying out legitimate businesses, hence it is important to identify the criminals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor of Edo state, Godwin Obaseki has revealed why the anti-open grazing law is yet to be enacted in his state.
