The mining sector in Nigeria is in serious trouble, and Rep Halims is not having it! He’s calling on the government to step up and declare a state of emergency in the mining sector. According to him, Nigeria’s mineral resources have the potential to boost the economy, create jobs, and increase revenue, but they’re not being utilized to their full potential due to illegal mining activities. This is causing the country to lose a whopping $9 billion annually. Rep Halims is not happy about this and wants the government to take action. He’s proposing the establishment of Mineral Monitoring and Inspection Offices across the country to keep a close eye on mining activities. In addition, he’s pushing for the formation of a special security task force to kick out all the illegal miners. It’s time to clean up the mining sector and make the most of Nigeria’s mineral wealth!
