The leader of the Muslims in Nigeria, Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar the Third, has decried what he calls the stereotypes placed on members of the Fulani community in the country. 

The monarch made this known after a meeting with the leadership of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN).

During the meeting, largely focussed on the challenges facing herders in the country, the Sultan said there is need to find workable solutions to address security and socioeconomic challenges confronting members of the association.
