Miyetti Allah Disowns Group Which Endorsed, Purchased N100M APC Forms For Jonathan
The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) has dissociated itself from a Fulani Group that purchased aspiration form for immediate past president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan popularly known as GEJ.
MACBAN in a statement signed by Abdulbasid Bonga, Protem National Secretary of Concerned Registered Members of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, in swift reaction to the widely publicised purported endorsement of GEJ ahead the 2023 election, signed by Abdulbasid Bonga, Protem National Secretary of Concerned Registered Members of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), made available to newsmen in Kaduna on Monday night, said they are not party to the charade.
“This Fulani group led by one Ibrahim Abdullahi from Kaduna is not a member of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), neither is he a member of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore Fulani Socio-Cultural Association,” the statement said.
It added that Ibrahim Abdullahi, is a factional National Secretary of Gan Allah Fulani Development Association (GAFDAN).
“He did this on his own, not under the Fulani communities or Association Nigeria.

“We the entire registered members and officials of Fulani Association including all the stakeholders dissociate ourselves from this move,” it added.
The group pointed out that although, they don’t have anything against GEJ, but it is not their collective decision to endorse or purchase any nomination forms to “ASPIRANTS” in Nigeria.
“What we are after is the unity, integration and harmony between the Fulani communities and the farming communities, while expecting the security agencies to deal with bandits and criminals at all nooks and corners of our thick forests,” it added.
The group however, appealed to its members across the country to remain law abiding and should not allow themselves to be used as agents of provocateurs.
It reminded that MACBAN remains apolitical and non partisan.
