Hon Tukur Umar Danfulani, the chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Zamfara State, has urged the state’s branch of the MIyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) to provide sound education to Fulani youths.
Addressing MACBAN leaders in Gusau, the state capital, the APC State Chairman urged Fulani leaders in the state to devise practical ways of sensitizing their youths in order to enable them to live good lives.

When members of the Association, led by Alhaji Ahmad Hussaini Matawallen Tudun-Wada, paid him a courtesy visit at the party’s State secretariat, the chairman gave the charge.
Danfulani lamented that the Fulani community had been degraded due to ignorance or deliberate connotation, with everyone continuing to brand them as bandits.
He explained that no tribe is without criminals in its midst, and that it is the responsibility of the MACBAN leaders to sensitize their members to continue to exhibit the positive characteristics for which they are known.
He urged those involved in banditry to repent of their criminal activities and return to their legitimate pursuits.
“Those who see the Fulani people in a negative light will see the truth,” he added, “while Fulani youths will want to go to school, get educated, and contribute meaningfully to societal growth.”
