The Plateau State Government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with two companies to implement the controversial grazing reserve policy in the state under the National Livestock Transformation Programme of the Federal Government.

The Director of Press and Public Affairs, Government House, Dr Macham Makut, in a statement in Jos on Friday, said the companies would start operations at the Wase and Kanam Grazing Reserves.

Governor Simon Lalong expressed delight that the initiative was gradually becoming a reality after the initial setbacks occasioned by misinformation, politicisation and scepticism that drew unnecessary resistance.

He said through robust engagement, enlightenment, and dialogue, the earlier fears were dispelled leading to the acceptance of the programme by the farmers, pastoralists, and businessmen.
