The Federal Government has revealed plans to launch a large-scale resettlement programme known as the ‘Pulaku Initiative’ aimed at addressing the root causes of farmer-herder clashes in the country and fostering national unity.
Vice President Kashim Shettima who inaugurated a steering committee to coordinate the implementation of the initiative at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Tuesday, said the initiative was in fulfillment of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s promise to improve the lives of all Nigerians.
Shettima noted that the word ‘Pulaku’ which is also called the “Fulani code of conduct,” is an integral cultural and ethical value system specific to the Fulani people.
