2019: We’ll announce our candidate this week -Miyetti Allah
Socio – cultural Fulani herdsmen group , Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore , says it will announce its Presidential candidate this week .
The Secretary – General of the group , Mr . Saleh Alhassan, said this in an interview with The PUNCH .
The frontline candidates , President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress , and former Vice -President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party are both Fulani and are both into animal husbandry .
When asked who the group would be supporting , Alhassan said , “ We will make an announcement this week . We will hold a press conference in Abuja . ”
The National Coordinator of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria , in Benue State, Garus Gololo , had last week slammed Atiku , calling him a divisive figure.
Atiku had recently cautioned Nigerians that Buhari, his opponent at the polls next year , is incapable of addressing the wanton killings carried out by herdsmen in the country and should not win re -election .
He said if Buhari wins the 2019 presidential election , the killings will continue and likely escalate into a series of ethno – religious crises .
In reaction , Gololo said Atiku ’ s inciting comment is capable of dividing the country even before he ’ s president. He said the former vice president has a questionable track record as a politician and is not a credible candidate for the 2019 presidential election .
