Fulani ready to leave Nigeria, Buhari only creating enemies for us – Miyetti Allah declares

The Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, a union of Fulani cattle breeders in the country, has assetted that Fulani ethnic group would be better off if Nigeria breaks up.

According to the National Secretary of the socio-cultural group, Saleh Alhassan, the current government led by President Muhammadu Buhari was only creating more enemies for them.

He told Punch on Saturday that Fulani has not benefitted anything special from the current government led by their kinsman, Buhari.

He said, “If everything busts (Nigeria disintegrates), it’s to the advantage of the herders because we are not even enjoying the federation,” Alhassan said.

“We are even bidding for restructuring of the country; let every part go, so we can say this is where we are.

“If the President is a Fulani, it doesn’t in any way affect the life of a herder. In fact, they are worse off under Buhari. Buhari has not done anything for us other than creating enemies for us.”

“Herders are being chased around. If Buhari loves the herders, he would have created the grazing reserves for them,” he added.
