The Acting Inspector General of
Police, IGP, Mohammed Adamu on Friday disclosed that the leadership of Miyetti
Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, has agreed to work with
the police.
Adamu disclosed that Fulani
leaders under the umbrella of MACBAN agreed to support the police in flushing
out bandits in Kebbi State and other parts of Northern Nigeria.
The police boss made the
disclosure while addressing journalists in Birnin Kebbi, the state capital.
Adamu said: “They have agreed to
work with us in our efforts to flush out bandits in Kebbi State.
“We will take measures to
dialogue with the bandits to become better citizens but if that fails we will
deal with them.”
Stressing that not all the
bandits in areas of the state are of Fulani extraction, Adamu said the essence
of the meeting was to dialogue with Fulani leaders and hear about their
challenges.
Adamu, alongside the Minister of
Interior, Abdulrahman Danbazau and other top government officials were in
Birnin Kebbi on the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari to dialogue with
Fulani leaders on how to put an end to the menace of banditry in the country.
