Governments, other ethnic groups ‘working to destroy cattle rearing’ – Fulani herders

A group of Fulani cattle herders, the Coalition of Pastoralists Associations of Nigeria (CPAN), has accused the Nigerian government and other ethnic groups in the country of destroying the business of cattle rearing.

The group also claimed that the hostility shown to Fulani people, who are primarily cattle rearers, has forced many to leave the country.

The group made the claims during a press briefing in Abuja on Tuesday.
