IPOB Bans Fulani Cattle Rearing and Cattle meet consumption in Igbo land according to a statement by, Head of IPOB’s Directorate of State, Mazi Chika Edoziem which states that the “ban takes complete effect six months from 08/10/2021.”

 
 
 
 

On April 8, 2022, Edoziem made it known that only the local cow breed (Efi Igbo) would “be consumed and used for all ceremonies in Biafraland.”

 
 
 
 

The statement reads;

“8th April 2022 is the date. From that date, no more Fulani Cow shall be allowed into Biafraland for any reason, not for burials, title taking, weddings etc. “Only Efi Igbo (Local Cow breed) shall be consumed and used for all ceremonies in Biafraland.”

 
 
 
 

He claimed that the decision was taken following constant attacks on Igbos by suspected Fulani herdsmen, which resulted in killing of south east farmers and raping their wives and daughters  and other forms of assaults that have been perpetrated by the fulani cattle herdsmen.
