Abdullahi Nuhu, the Chairman, Miyetti Allah Cattle breeders Association of Nigeria, Plateau State chapter, says the association has not recorded any incident of cattle rustling in the state, since May.
Nuhu disclosed this during an emergency meeting between the association and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps on Wednesday in Jos.
He attributed the success to the association’s collaboration with the government and security agencies.
He said when he assumed office, a blueprint was mapped out to ensure partnership with the various security agencies and the government to build on the existing peace in the State.
Nuhu said: “When I assumed office, due to the prevalence of cattle rustling, cattle straying into farmlands and destroying crops and death, we found it imperative to work with the security agencies to achieve peace.
