Maharaj Ji made the plea on Sunday in Lagos while addressing newsmen on the 20th anniversary of the destruction of the Maharaj ji Temple by suspected hoodlums in Iju area of Lagos.

He also commended President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration for suspending action on the proposed RUGA settlement scheme.

Maharaj Ji also advised the Federal Government to map out some areas in the north and develop them as ranches, instead of locating RUGA in all parts of the country.

“The Federal Government should map out land to create ranches either in Kaduna or Kano,” he said.

With good roads and effective railways system, he said that people from other parts of the country could travel either by roads or rail to the designated settlement in the north to buy the cows.
