 The National Secretary of Mieti Ala Kato Breeders Association of Nigeria, Makban, Othman, Ngezama has distanced the group from threats by Eupholani group to attack different places in Delta State. Recall that the militant group movement for the emancipation and defence of the Niger Delta meant, had in reaction to the warning, vow to launch three rocket launchers and ballistic missiles at any facility of their choice in the north. A purported report from alleged Eupholani group had threatened to invade and bomb the state capital, Asaba Anakbo, headquarters of the Eka south local government area of the state. It gave Governor Okowa 72 hours to withdraw his stand and support for the ban on open grazing. But reacting, Othman said the threat from the group should not be taken seriously and was made by mischief makers. Othman maintained that the group is out to tarnish the image of the Pasarallis and Eupholaniis. He however added that the resolution against open grazing is targeted at Eupholaniis' stain in the southern part of the country.
