A group of herders from the Gan Allah Fulani Development Association of Nigeria have taken the State Governor of Oyo State, Engineer Seyi Makindo, to court over the anti-open grazing law that was passed in the state.
The suit included the Governor, the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice in Oyo State as defendants.
The state government passed the anti-open grazing bill into law in an effort to curb the repeated farmers-herders clash in the state.
