The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, has spoken on alleged threat to stop supply of cattle to the southern part of the country.
Its Katsina State chapter debunked the rumors on Wednesday, explaining that it was not aware of such decision.

State Chairman, Atiku Abubakar, told Vanguard that he had not heard or received any communication from its national leadership.
The offical, however, assured that any information on the directive, if any, would be made public.

Meanwhile, MACBAN has condemned what it called blanket criminalization of herdsmen nationwide.

The group said there were good people among them, and that people should not take advantage of the infiltration of the group by some criminal elements to label all herdsmen as killers.

Chairman of MACBAN, South East zone Alhaji Gidado Siddiki, in a statement, pleaded for “better understanding in information peddling, so as to avoid the often misinformation, half-truths and outright falsehood that the gullible public very often gets fed with.

“I plead with Governments, Traditional and Religious leaders, as well as other influential groups in the South East not to relent in their advocacy for peaceful coexistence amongst Nigerians wherever they choose to live and ply their legitimate businesses.

“I plead for truthfulness, fairness and restraints in information management so as to avoid tendencies of unfair blanket criminalization of any group of people.

Siddiki advocated that criminals, wherever they are identified, should be made to face the full wrath of the laws of the land.

I don’t know if they still teach comprehension in schools nowadays!
Someone issued a threat to the entire south, the southeast chairman of the group “Sidika” is BEGGING that his zonal chapter is not with those that issued this threat and ‘something’ is talking about IPoB and how it will affect who!?

Some pipo passed thru school, but the school nor pass thru dem, that is if they went at all!

Reading thru the comments from peeps here I just came to the realization, that there is no way a Mark Zuckerberg would have emerged with a Facebook and the attendant financial accomplishments from the Nigeria I see today! What a pity!!

Are dis ones high on cheap weed?

Nope, they’re exercising their basic rights as citizens of a country supposedly governed by the rule of law. If the president’s authority comes from the constitution, he is under the constitution and not above the law. These people have a right to air their grievances and are democratic heroes for refusing to be disenfranchised in the political arena. They deserve to be applauded by the youth, not insulted.

I think this man is just a lackey and political jobber, and most of his statements are tailored to suit his boss Tinubu. However, if you remove the ‘tribal lens’ covering your eyes, Joe Igbokwe has made a lot of sense. The confab report recommended the same thing. As a Nigerian, state of origin should not be an issue where you have been resident for at least 10yrs. And if you decide to contribute and make a positive impact on your immediate environment, your antecedents & capabilities alone should be the determining factor and not if your forefathers were the first settlers on that soil. We can’t continue with the way we have been carrying on, Nigeria needs a total overhaul to survive this century!

My country is eff’d up but I thank God I’m a Nigerian! See occasion wey VP of a full country grace just be like primary school graduation party! The VP sef resemble headmaster kon wear COAT! Like seriously!!?

Nigerians are the best na! Who govt epp? Is d mantra nowadays. We don’t wait for shii to happen, we go out and make shii happen!

65m that originate from where in Nigeria na? Every tribe & ethnic group can trace their origins to a portion of the soil of this country (whether in the north or south), where do these ones come from na!?

Why is the Op being mischievous? Shehu Sani said South, and not Southwest.

Which kyn rough play bi dis one na!? I thot it was Sade Adu!

Crazy Op!!

FUNKÉ!!!!

Why all dis scamming scammers dey try demselves unnecessarily? A swing would have convincingly convinced you!

HeyCorleone:
What is new about that?

We are worried about not corrupting our kids, but what future are we giving them?

Nigeria is like a man going out naked with nothing but socks on and is worried people would find him weird because the socks is torn.

Lol Best comment so far!! Tiri gbosa for u!!!

Nigerians are the all time best when it comes to people that know how to major in minor things!

Breaking news: Tekno with 3 strippers is now a threat to national security!

Bayelsa and funny sounding names are like 5&6.

Mr. Nigeria Kia!
Mr ThankGod!
Mr. Goodhead!!

As pathetic as this story indeed, one can’t help but feel ambivalent that a third world raised kid with poor internet connection & a 2nd hand laptop can repeatedly extract money from educated, smart & technologically advanced people even when they have been sensitized by their govt on what fraud & online scam is!

Really beats the imagination!

I’m sorry to say but you are clueless.
Awolowo was not the tribalistic one. Zik actually was.
Let me take you to school a little:
Your question was what would have prompted West people to vote Azikiwe and not Awolowo? The West voted NCNC the party they started with Herbert Macaulay as founder. Herbert Macaulay, a Yoruba, was the head and without any tribalism gave Zik the party leadership when he died. The NCNC was the biggest party then. Won in the East and the West. There was no Midwest yet then. Ojukwu is mixing timelines here. However Zik should have left the West for the Yorubas that founded the party. However he wanted to rule from Lagos, being the capital. Which was in the West. Hence wanted to be premier in the West as well. This would have led to a situation where Igbos were ruling in both including the West where the Yorubas that founded the party were.
Of course that was not acceptable to the Yorubas. If you are wondering why that was not acceptable, would you found something and then because your founder died and a “foreigner” was leader, abdicate all rights to even your own land?
Isn’t the right to rule your own land what Igbos and Yorubas are clamoring for now and hating the Fulani herdsmen for trampling up and down? So that is a basic want of a people? Self-determination and self-representation?
Ask yourself, why didn’t Zik offer the Western region to the Yoruba deputy Akinsanya instead of trying to be greedy for his own tribe?
Only a greedy person would want everything to be in his tribe’s favor but that seems okay to most Igbos since they appear to be very greedy.
The Yorubas voted along party lines and voted NCNC, their party they founded. It took Awolowo to convince them overnight that Zik was greedy and they voted with their feet. I’m sure convincing them must have been easy since Zik had in 1949 at an Igbo National Congress speech said the God of Igbo had destined them to dominate Nigeria and Africa. If Zik had given the premiership to a Yoruba man, NCNC would have won the West.
The problem was Zik who saw nothing wrong with putting an Igbo man as premier of the East and then an Igbo man as premier of the West despite the fact that a Yoruba man founded the party and he inherited it from a Yoruba man. He had no sense of justice and fairness and was rightly put in his place

This attitude is exactly why the yorubas can’t be trusted by any other tribe that deals with them, especially the easterners. The NCNC had Herbert Macaulay as its 1st president and Nnamdi Azikiwe as its 1st Secretary. That it was formed in Lagos doesn’t make it a Yoruba party.

The NCNC was made up of a rather long list of nationalist parties, cultural associations, and labor movements that joined to form NCNC. The party at the time was the second to take a concerted effort to create a true nationalist party.

It embraced different sets of groups from the religious, to tribal and to trade groups! It wasn’t a Yoruba party, but typical of little minded individuals, that idea is what is being paraded upandan like that is what the founding members contributed their blood & sweat for!

If this news goes wide which am sure will , the senator should just resign because na kill Nigerians go just kill am

Enyia, na councilor e bi & not a senator!

And the international community is observing while we continue with our massive show of shame in Nigeria!

Abalado:
Big lies,,,,,, do u know how much they sold me to Man city in 1900?

Yeah we know, one shot of rum and a broken piece of mirror! Shey ur medical was done aboard a Portuguese ship?

Why someone would take panadol for another man’s headache beats me! Isokoboy is d real mugu here!!

olaric:
Garba Shehu talks without thinking--always irrational in virtually everything he says

He’s only doing the job he was employed to do. Also as a close confidant to ‘the great mistake of Nigeria’, if he doesn’t defend him who will!?

Me no wan talk yet, e bi like say ManU bin dey expect another deadline. This yesterday own na practice deadline!

She neva come out finish una done wan lock am down with marriage, what sort of wicked youth are this? Let her share small around first na!!

mrvitalis:
Are u trying to crack a joke or are u really such a dummy ?

Usually I don’t reply stupid mentions, but let me make an exception here. Are u lacking in comprehensive skills? Where in that write up did Bola Tinubu call for a violent overthrow of govt? Don’t be an example of what Soyinka has described as FTC youths, that’ll really be disappointing.

TSRC:
Only unpatriotic elements hate amnesty international.

If you like this country, better don't join them.

They don't like Nigeria because of Nigerians. They like Nigeria now because buhari and tinubu are temporarily in charge.

Real talk hommes! Respeck!!

It’s like they don’t teach comprehension again in schools. Where in any of the quotes up there did BAT call for a violent overthrow(& that’s what a revolution is) of govt like Sowore did? Where again did Tinubu declare an expiration date for the DSS?

Nigerians love to copy, but a times we tend to copy without learning first! No successful revolution starts out with that title, long-standing enduring protests lead to it!

Weak reaction from a weak man!

Buhari: wetin concern me...
