The Zonal Chairman of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, South-East Chapter, Alhaji Gidado Siddikki, has claimed that its members are being detained without trial at different correctional centres in Anambra State.
He stated these while briefing journalists in Awka on Sunday, just as he appealed to the Anambra State government through the Ministry of Justice and the prison authority in the state, to look into the matter, with a view to putting an end to the development. “We are here for our business, of which we are all aware that it is the ranching of cows in the bushes and not for criminal activities.
“Wherever they see a Fulani man, because of the hatred, they will report him to any nearest police station via a weighty allegation, whether he committed the offence or not, and the Police will arrest him, charge him to court, and afterwards, the herder will be dumped inside the prison yards and their file kept in court custody without trial.
