In five years, the federal government has produced N14.59 billion through the Nigeria Mining Cadastre Office, which is in charge of managing and administering the country’s mineral titles (2018 to 2022).<\/p>\n

At the 63rd State House Ministerial Briefing, which was held at the Aso Rock Villa in Abuja and was organized by the Presidential Communications Team, the agency’s Director-General, Obadiah Nkom, disclosed the information to State House Correspondents.<\/p>\n

The agency<\/a> made N1.55 billion, N2.38 billion, and N2.57 billion respectively in 2018, 2019, and 2020.<\/p>\n

The agency’s revenue did, however, decline from N4.3 billion to N3.79 billion between 2021 and 2022.<\/p>\n

The DG attributed the drop in revenue to changes in its internal operating system which temporarily affected revenue inflow.<\/p>\n

Nkom who was recently reappointed for another period of four years said the agency has revoked 3,400 titles, already. He added that the agency\u2019s bid to generate appropriate revenue for the government, plans are on to revoke more unutilised titles in 2023.<\/p>\n

According to him the application of the principle of \u201cuse it or lose it\u201d to mining title\/rights administration and failure to pay up mandatory annual service fees are responsible for revocation.<\/p>\n

He explained that there are restrictions and conditionalities for the issuance of coal mining licenses in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Nkom said: \u201cWe have to be very strategic, and also take into account current global issues.<\/p>\n

The Mining Cadastre Office does not just issue licenses, we look at the future, issues of sustainability, maximizing value, strategically ensuring Nigeria is properly managing her mineral wealth to achieve maximum economic value and diversification.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the principles of allocation of mining licenses in Nigeria, the DG said the agency gives priority to \u2018first come first served\u2019 and \u2018Use it or lose it\u2019.<\/p>\n

Nkom said: \u201cHow does the system run? Is on a use-it-or-lose-it basis. We\u2019ve had instances where people receive and get licenses and keep these licenses, and they don\u2019t use them. The law is very, very clear on that. What does that mean? We give you the license. If you don\u2019t adhere to the provisions of the Act, you lose it. How do you lose it, you lose it by way of revocation. And it\u2019s not arbitrary. We give you a notice of default, for you to be able to remedy the defect, we give you 30 days in line with the law. You can decide to remedy the effect on the 29th day. We are fine with that. But once it is 30 days, and you don\u2019t remedy the defects, then we revoke the title because we know that all these are subjects to litigations.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that the agency has witnessed tremendous legal, institutional and technological developments since its inception. He promises that the government will continue to sanitize the sector through transparent policies and processes<\/p>\n

The DG who said the agency has not lost any litigations, said, \u201cwhat is the secret to that? the secret is simply ensuring that we adhere strictly to the provisions of the Act.\u201d<\/p>\n

On transparency, he said: \u201cIf you need any document relating to the issuance or revocation of mining licenses in Nigeria, the law permits the MCO to make it available.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nkom said the agency also works closely with NEITI in all activities to ensure that mineral titles are issued in the most transparent manner, not only for Nigerian investors but internationally. \u201cBecause we must be able to ensure that we encourage and bring in foreign direct investment into the sector, bringing in big-time miners to the sector as much as possible,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
