MAYETTI ALLAH DEMAND #150 BILLION FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The Mayetti Allah has made demand of the federal government to make provision for financial assistance for the Organisation.
Fulani socio-cultural group, the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, has asked the Federal Government to budget the sum of N150bn for the ranching of cows, and the development of the entire livestock farming value chains in Nigeria.
Spokesman for the group, Saleh Alhassan, spoke on Wednesday while featuring on the round table, an online gathering organized by punch news paper. According to him, ranching comes with many benefits including lesser risk and loss, adding that herdsmen are willing to rear cattle in a “modernised way”.
Alhassan, however, said the common herder does not have the resources to ranch his cows, adding that the infrastructure for ranching has to be put in place by the government for stationed cattle rearing to be successfully implemented.
Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria sometimes called MACBAN is a loose partisan advocacy group centered on promoting the welfare of Fulani pastoralists in Nigeria. The organization was founded in the early 1970s with headquarters in Kaduna
