The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), in Taraba State, has adopted President Muhammadu Buhari and the candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Alhaji Sani Abubakar Danladi, as their presidential and governorship candidates, respectively.
Chairman of MACBAN in the state, Alhaji Sahabi Mahmud Tukur, said this, on Monday, at a press conference, in Jalingo., on Monday.
He said that the decision was a mark of respect to the leader of the association and the conviction that the president has kept his campaign promises especially in the Northeast.
He cited the Mambilla Hydro Power Project, the bridge across the river Benue in Ibbi and other projects in the region to have informed the choice of the president and said that the clear leadership failure of the incumbent administration in the state has called for the need to change the government.
