FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SUSPENDS RUGA SETTLEMENT PROJECT

Following public outcry and the seeming misconception about the Ruga Settlement Projects, an idea designed to stem the tide of herdsmen/farmers clashes across the country, President Muhammadu Buhari is said to have suspended the idea pending further notice.

The president, after consultations with stakeholders resolved to put away the idea for a thorough review and well acceptable approach to the menace constituted to national security by the constant clashes between herdsmen and farmers.

Well meaning Nigerians such as Prof. Wole Soyinka, have openly condemned the RUGA project from the onset and he claimed that the plan of the federal government is enough to cause an explosion in the country.
