The Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, a Fulani socio-cultural association through its national president, Bello Abdullahi Bodejo,  has said it would continue to resist the idea of cattle ranching because cattle ranching is very expensive and we cant afford it.

He also alleged that there was threats to his life over the body’s refusal to withdraw its law suit against the Anti-Grazing law in Benue State.

Bodejo urged security agencies to protect him because his life was now in danger.

He said, “The threat I am having on a regular basis gives me sleepless nights. People called me and clearly tell me that they are going to kill me if I refuse to withdraw the case we instituted against the Anti-Grazing Law in Benue State from court.

“That is why I am calling on security agencies to protect me; I am just protecting the interest of my people.”

Recall that the body which had faulted the Anti-Open Grazing Law passed in Benue State, described it as obnoxious and a recipe for anarchy.
