By Omolara Adasofunjo

The Speaker of the Ogun State House of Assembly, OGHA, Mr Oludaisi Elemide had called on relevant authorities to ensure a holistic implementation of the Ogun State Anti-Open Grazing Law, with a view to controlling the movement of herdsmen across the state. 

Mr Elemide made the call while reacting to the report he received that some herders were moving cattle on the major roads in Ogun State.

The speaker also reacted to the menace of land grabbers terrorising some residents of the state as reported by the member representing Ewekoro State Constituency, Mr Yusuf Amosun.

Mr Elemide urged the people to approach a court of competent jurisdiction on matters relating to land grabbing and forceful evasion of landed property for redress.

He noted that it was high time everyone saddled with the responsibility of enforcing the Anti-Land Grabbing Law braced up and ensured sanity in land administration in order to avoid unlawful exploitation of the people and possible breakdown of law and order.
