Be focused, Sultan urges Miyetti Allah

- From Halima Musa, Kano

The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar, has called on the newly inaugurate­d national executives of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Associatio­n of Nigeria (MACBAN) to eschew rivalry and work hard to address the challenges affecting members of the associatio­n.

In a statement signed by National Secretary General of the associatio­n, AlhajiBaba Othman Ngelzarma, the Sultan while inaugurati­ng the executives said the challenges ahead of cattle breeders in Nigeria were enormous, adding that only good leadership would see them through.

In his response, the newly inaugurate­d national president of the group, Muhammad Kirowa, assured that they will work to justify the confidence reposed in them. Kirowa added that the step taken by some state government­s to provide grazing reserves and stock routes was apt as it would help in fostering peaceful co-existence between farmers and cattle rearers.
