Ohanaeze Ndigbo on Monday issued a warning to Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders’ Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, against any attempt to operate a Fulani security group in the Igbo land.
The Apex Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohanaeze further warned Miyetti Allah to stop the purported move because it would cause disaster to Nigeria.
The warning was issued in a statement issued to newsmen by the Secretary-General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro on Monday night.
According to the statement, securing the lives and property of the citizenry solely lies in the hands of State Governors and the President as stipulated by the Constitution, vowing that Ndigbo would resist such attempt to deploy any Fulani security group to Igbo land.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo, therefore, cautioned Miyetti Allah to avoid provoking the wrath of Igbos with the increasing attacks on innocent Igbos by its killer herders.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo said they have issued marching orders to the Eastern Security Network, ESN and Ebubeagu as a matter of urgency to stop all kinds of further attacks on Igbo land.
The apex Igbo body further disclosed that its leadership will invite ESN, Ebube Agu and Miyetti Allah for a meeting to address the security challenges across the states of the South-East zone.
