The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has come out to respond to Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN’s claim that they are in the South-East only for business interest.

IPOB recently revealed that Miyetti Allah’s kind of business actually leads to loss of lives and the sacking of indigenes.

According to a recent statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, it is borderline amusing to believe that Miyetti Allah has purely business interest in Biafraland.

He added that Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders can deceive their fellow Nigerians with their gimmicks and antics, but IPOB are smarter than them any time any day.

His words, “The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has been drawn to the deceptive statement credited to Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, that they are solely concerned about their business interests in the East and not motivated by their age-long territorial expansionism.

“Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders can deceive their fellow Nigerians with their gimmicks and antics. But we IPOB are smarter than them any time any day.

“We are working tirelessly night and day to protect our people regardless of human and material cost. We, therefore, warn Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, to stay away from Biafraland.

“We don’t need them and their investment including their footsoldiers— herdsmen, bandits, terrorists, ISWAP and others. They should all steer clear of Biafraland before it’s too late. We are at alert and monitoring and watching any step they will dare to make into Biafraland.

“Biafraland cannot harbour bloodsuckers masquerading as herders. We can no longer sit idly by and watch them spill innocent blood under whatever guise, raid communities without provocation, maim and rape our mothers and daughters, or destroy our crops and farmlands.

“Nigerian government, security agencies and Miyetti Allah are all working together to soften the ground for terrorists’ take over of homelands of indigenous people the British experimentally lumped together into Nigeria.”
