The leadership of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria has appealed to Anambra Governor Chukwuma Soludo to temporarily suspend the ban on cattle movement on foot in the state.
The appeal was made on Monday by the Southeast leader of MACBAN, Alhaji Gidado Sidikki, in Awka, Anambra State.
He said the ban is too sudden and many of the cattle rearers have no other means of livelihood, arguing that the ban will have a negative effect on them and their livelihood.
Sidikki used the point that MACBAN members have been living peacefully in the state as part of the points to strengthen his appeal
