US House Of Reps Approves Sanctions On MACBAN, Miyetti Allah, And Ethnic Militias
By:Fabian Apechihin
According to a report by *Daily Post*, the United States House of Representatives has approved sanctions against the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, and other ethnic militias over alleged links to terrorism and human rights violations in Nigeria.
The move follows a Nigerian Senate resolution condemning the persistent atrocities committed by terrorist and extremist groups across the country. Lawmakers cited numerous reports and investigations detailing large-scale attacks on civilians, the destruction of places of worship, and a consistent pattern of impunity.
The resolution noted that findings from media investigations, independent researchers, and both local and international NGOs reveal a troubling picture of widespread violence, particularly in northern and central Nigeria.
“For over a decade, Islamic terror organisations have carried out mass murder, rape, kidnappings, and other atrocities targeting mostly Nigerian Christians and non-Fulani moderate Muslim populations, resulting in mass displacement and destruction of places of worship,” part of the resolution stated.
Despite ongoing military and security operations, the Senate expressed alarm that groups such as Boko Haram, the Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP), and various armed militias continue to terrorize communities without facing meaningful accountability. Lawmakers lamented that countless villages have been razed, schools destroyed, and families displaced — leaving thousands traumatized.
The resolution described these actions as grave violations of international humanitarian law that may amount to crimes against humanity if not properly investigated and prosecuted. It urged the Federal Government to strengthen cooperation with international partners to trace, identify, and prosecute all individuals, sponsors, and networks involved in terrorist activities.
Additionally, the Senate called for increased humanitarian assistance for internally displaced persons, especially women and children who have suffered the most. It also emphasized the need for funding rehabilitation, education, and psychosocial support for survivors of abduction and sexual violence.
Lawmakers further urged security agencies to improve intelligence gathering and community engagement to prevent further attacks and restore public trust. They reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening Nigeria’s counterterrorism framework and ensuring equal protection for all citizens, regardless of religion or ethnicity.
