Alake Dele has made a significant announcement on his X handle, sharing the exciting news that the ban on mining exploration in Zamfara State has finally been lifted after over five years of restrictions.

This decision marks a turning point for the state, which is rich in valuable mineral resources like gold, lithium, and copper.

The lifting of the ban comes after notable security improvements, allowing the government to focus on the potential economic benefits that mining can bring to the region and the country at large.

The ban, which was imposed several years ago, was originally put in place to tackle growing security concerns linked to illegal mining activities and the rise of banditry in the region.

These illegal operations were not only harming the environment but also fueling criminal activity.

However, despite the ban’s intentions, it inadvertently allowed illegal miners to continue exploiting the state’s vast mineral resources.

With security improving, the government has now decided it is the right time to lift the ban and regulate mining activities properly.

Alake Dele emphasized that this decision will enable the mining sector in Zamfara to contribute more significantly to the national economy.

“The state’s vast mineral wealth, particularly gold, lithium, and copper, can now be properly explored and mined, creating opportunities for both the state and the country,” he stated.

The goal is to ensure that mining activities are carried out legally, with better oversight and regulation to combat illegal mining and associated crimes more effectively.

The incidents, which resulted in the loss of lives, have created grief and criticism, noticing the dire levels of hunger and poverty gripping the nation.

Taking to his X handle, Obi shared his heartfelt condolences with the affected families, communities, and states, describing the incidents as a reflection of systemic failures in governance.

One of the notable developments surrounding this tragedy is the arrest of organizers behind a palliative distribution program in Oyo State.

The initiative, spearheaded by Zainab Otiti Obanor, the former wife of the Ooni of Ife, has come under scrutiny following the chaos that unfolded during the event.

In his statement, Peter Obi made a passionate appeal to the government, urging them to reconsider their actions.

According to Obi, the intent behind such initiatives is to provide relief to citizens, not to cause harm.

Zainab Otiti Obanor, a prominent philanthropist, has often been involved in charitable activities aimed at alleviating suffering in society.

Her efforts in Oyo State were meant to ease the hardship faced by residents, yet the tragic turn of events reflects the harsh realities of desperation among the people.
