—Says Almajiri Should Not Be Stigmatized
Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State has disclosed that the State Government in its wisdom paid the sum of 8 million Naira to Fulani Herdsmen who lost their cows at Ezinihitte Mbaise, for the sake of one Nigeria.
The Governor made this known when he received the leadership of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) at the Imo State Government House, Owerri.
Governor Uzodimma affirmed that Imo people are hospitable people and will do everything possible to make the state conducive for every Nigerian, irrespective of their religion or tribe.

The Governor further assured that Almajiris are free to stay in the state.
