Chief Oguh pointed out that, as the Southerners rear goats, they cannot go to seek for land all over the country to feed their goats. In same manner, he said the Fulani herdsmen should not demand for special lands to feed their cow. The school administrator pronounced that reading of the bill by the Senate was disgusting and called on the Senate to use their time, opportunity and resources to make good laws that can improve the economy of the country adding that, cattle rearing by the Fulani herdsmen is a private business and as such the herdsmen should provide space for themselves in the North to feed their cows.

Chief Oguh, who is also an engineer, asserted that, looking into the grazing bill was madness and the Fulani herdsmen should do their business in the North and not in the East, he concluded. A tricyclist (Kekedriver) who decried the disadvantage of the bill said, that grazing bill will cause trouble in the country instead of peace and the herdsmen can always encroach into more lands.
