The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) has called on President Bola Tinubu to issue a presidential directive compelling security agencies to provide stronger protection for herding communities across the country.
In a statement released Friday, MACBAN’s National Secretary-General, Bello Gotomo, urged the federal government to address what the association described as persistent discrimination, ethnic profiling, and mistreatment of pastoralists in Nigeria.
