The Benue and Cross River State governments have pledged to work together to avert major crisis in the border communities of Vandeikya and Obudu Local Government Areas, LGAs, of both states.
“Our Livestock Guards have instructions to apprehend any cattle that graze on our land.”
The Special Adviser to Cross River State Governor on State Security (North) Comptroller Jude Chinebe (retd.) said that cattle from Obudu crossed over to Benue though without damages.
He noted that “Benue state has a law against open grazing and we must all learn to obey the law of another State.”
