The leader of the association of cattle breeders in Nigeria generally known as MIYETI ALLAH made an open speech today during their usual monthly meetings with the federal government officials in kano state.
In his last statement, he pointed out that the members of the cattle breeders in Nigeria may not sell meat in entire South East this Christmas. This is because there has been a very low purchase of cow meat in that region especially in Enugu State, which we believed to have resulted from our previous decisions to shut down meat markets in Enugu 4 months ago.
Another problem is the cost of transportation in transporting cows from North to South, which in turn will not bring out mass purchase. That is not how to do business, as the igbos are not appreciating our efforts to make meat available in Nigeria.
Apart from all these, the entire South East Governors has deliberately refused to give us part of their lands to rear our cattle and this has resulted to very low yield of cow products since then.
They will only understand our value during Christmas when everyone will want to eat meat. At least this decision bring results and cooperation to entire South East and if possible south-south.
