He disclosed that the ban followed constant attacks and abuse of residents of the region by suspected Fulani herdsmen, and bandits.
Edoziem added that the pro-Biafra group has also banned the rearing and consumption of “Fulani cows” in the South-East region.
According to the IPOB Director, only local breed of cows would henceforth “be consumed and used for all ceremonies in Biafraland.”
