“This suspicion is rooted upon the speculations that herdsmen are harbingers of Fulani territorial expansionism. However, the leadership of MACBAN under my watch in the South East has continued to dialogue appreciably well with the individual state governments in the zone.
“I am happy that the dialogue gives us hope for better understanding between our members and their host communities,” Siddiki said, pointing out that the group would not hesitate to report any of its members found to be involved in criminal activities to law enforcement agencies. He urged the governments of South-East states to ensure the protection of their members and cattle, saying that herdsmen in the area would be made to take precaution in the course of doing their business.
“We, hereby, jointly resolve to fully lend our efforts toward fostering an enduring and harmonious relationship with our host communities. We urge members of our host communities to be more accommodating too”, he said. According to Siddiki, the South East people are good people and that MACBAN would not do anything to create tension in the area.All rights reserved.
