MACBAN VOWS TO COOPERATE WITH SECURITY AGENTS FLUSH OUT CRIMINALS

The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders’ Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), on Monday, said that it would give maximum support to government and security agencies to deal with outlaws, bandits and other criminals, making the lives of pastoralists unbearable in rural areas.

In a statement by the President and the Secretary of the group on Monday, Alhaji Hussein Bosso, and Baba Ngelzarma, respectively, they said the group had evolved strategies to curb the incessant security challenges confronting pastoralists.

The group, while expressing appreciation for the support it had received from well meaning Nigerians, including the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar III, stated that the State chapters of the group were also directed to address factors affecting the well-being of pastoralists and invoke the culture of ‘Pulaku’ against any family that harbours or aids criminality.

It expressed serious concern about the continuous displacement of thousands of pastoralists’ families as a result of rustling, banditry, kidnapping and the activities of outlawed groups.

It appealed to the Sultan to organise a national conference involving pastoralists’ leaders, the intelligentsia and other stakeholders with a “view to addressing issues of insecurity, economic empowerment and the negative profiling of pastoralists on social and mainstream media.”

The statement assured the Sultan that the association would do whatever it takes to restore the dignity and the culture of Fulani people and address issues affecting pastoralists with all the seriousness it deserved.
