On Miyetti Allah’s threat

President Muhammadu Buhari should call members of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN) to order over their threat to force Senate President Bukola Saraki out of office if he fails to resign his position.
The statement credited to the coordinator of the association in Benue state, Alhaji Garus Gololo, threatening to force the number three citizen of the nation out of office, is not only reckless and irresponsible; it is also highly unfortunate and capable of throwing the nation into turmoil.
It is on record that members of the association don’t just issue threat, they go all-out to violently fulfil their threats, and it is evident in their recent activities.
As patron of the association, President Buhari must call them to order to forestall outbreak of violence and anarchy in any part of the country.
Their threat should not be taken with levity.
If any crisis breaks out in any part of the country as a result of the threat, we will hold the president and members of the association responsible.
We will also write to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in Hague on reckless activities of MACBAN.
Aliyu Abdulkareem, National Coordinator, Movement for Democratic Goals (MDGs)
