The Miyetti Allah cattle breeders association of Nigeria (MACBAN) has lambasted Fulani lawmakers in the National Assembly for failing to protect the interest of herdsmen.
The Secretary-General of the group, Saleh Al-Hassan, said this during an interview on Sunrise Daily, a Channels Television programme, on Friday.


He said, “Our elite have failed to protect us. Our National Assembly members that are of Fulani background are just there collecting money. They can’t protect their people. They don’t want to come out to say the truth.”
While insisting that herdsmen don’t bear arms, Al-Hassan said there would not be peace until those who feel cheated are given justice,adding that any attempt to chase them out of the country would fail. Al-Hassan added, “If you have injustice in the land, you can only end up with negativity. There is nowhere you will find citizens being denied their economic rights and then you expect that there will be peace in that kind of place. What we are saying is give us a share of the land resources in this country.”
He also said herdsmen were the victims of the killings in Plateau and Benue states, saying no one had been brought to book for the killings of Fulani in Plateau State.
He said it was for this reason that the group decided to drag the state government before the ECOWAS court, where he said they were claiming N40bn for the killing of 5,000 herdsmen on the Plateau.
“So, no Berom man should begin to raise any moral justification. They are the ones that don’t want peace,” he added.

When they say a share of the land resources in the country, what land are they talking about? Don't they have States where they came out from? Are they still harping on taking people's land?

This is so dead on arrival, never going to happen.

He not yet done ooo.....continues...

Miyetti Allah Demands Apology From Benue State Govt.





We Warned Ortom Not To Proscribe Open Grazing ‘Overnight’
Apart from linking Tiv people to the attack on the Catholic church in Benue State that left two priests and 17 other worshippers dead, Alhassan accused the state government of propaganda against the association.
“I have always insisted that Governor Samuel Ortom is on a voyage of propaganda against our association,” he said. “And today, if you look at the arrest made in Benue, with respect to the perpetrators of the conflict there, you look at their ethnicity and background and you look at who is employing them, we have been vindicated.”
Alhassan’s comments come in the wake of attacks that have gripped the north-central state in which many people have been killed and many others displaced.
Allegations making the rounds say that the killings may be connected with the Anti-Grazing Law signed by Governor Samuel Ortom last year that led to a faceoff between the state government and herdsmen.
War of words
Since January 1, 2018, when suspected herdsmen attacked villages in Benue State killing 73 persons, Governor Ortom has repeatedly accused the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore of being responsible for the attacks, vowing not to go back on the prohibition against open grazing.
The governor has also rejected claims that the state government armed militia groups in the state and that it had a hand in the attacks.
To back its claim, the state government said it had documentary evidence linking the association to the killings and it engaged the police in a war of words earlier in the year over the failure to act on the evidence.
In April 2018, the state government filed a case against the association at the State High Court in Makurdi, accusing it of murder and widespread violence across 14 out of the 23 local councils of the state
On its part, Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore has rejected all allegations against it insisting it is a peaceful organisation.
As far as it is concerned, the prohibition of open grazing and subsequent actions by the state government are responsible for the violence, claims Governor Samuel Ortom denies.

SalamRushdie:
Lol

honestly I thought you're intelligent but today you just exposed yourself. Here I think you will make point but instead you're laughing what funny in what this man said? Back to the matter like I said if northern leaders I mean sultan of sokoto and emir's and political gladiator not come out and address this issues of killing the blood shield will not stop, now Fulani herdsmen's thought what they are doing is right because they felt they are cheated.

All this shit still goes on because the president & his government are backing these killers.Otherwise fulanis should not even be heard of.

Am ashame
This people are not even nigerians

Salt upon injury.



I need to get tf out of this useless country for now. Look at all the most successful and influencial people today. They had to leave this shithole at some point.

5000 miyeti members killed? Where is the police report? Where are the bodies? These terrorist can lie! Buhari is the one sponsoring these terrorist group.

Stupid set of people. They are trying to cover their tracks. We know the truth.

I must say that this cattle breeders association looks organized and tactical on all fronts.

Where are the Niger Delta militants to speak up and balance out powers cattle breeders have suddenly come into.
