The members of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) in the southeast geo-political zone of Enugu state have thrown their support behind Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi for his reelection in the state.

Members of the group made this known through the organisation as they excitedly thronged the government house of the state during a support visit they paid the governor.

Sidikki said: “We freely carry the message of your welcoming attitude to our kiths and kin in the Northern parts of Nigeria. We do this as proof that the oneness that Nigerian leaders preach is in practice in Your Excellency’s domain.”
The group also commended the governor on how he has been a model of tolerance, and praised how he has involved them in the affairs of the state.
He said: “Having considered all these your excellency, our people unanimously raise our voices in supporting your acceptance to have a second shot at the governance of Enugu State through the instrumentality of the coming gubernatorial elections.
“We lend our weight in support of your re-election project as we share the belief that when a route is good you make it twice.
“Our experience of your shade of governance commands appeal, and we can do no less than give you our unalloyed support and votes to ensure that your re-election mission is duly accomplished. This we wish to demonstrate in clear terms."
