When we realized the challenges in Nasarawa State, we introduced an executive order requiring all commercial miners to process their minerals within the state,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>He added that when he assumed office, the state had 416 mining licences but generated less than N1 million in revenue from the sector. The new law initially led to opposition, but Nasarawa has since become home to numerous processing plants.<\/p>\n<p>Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, stated that the government prioritises geospatial data and remote sensing technologies to enhance mineral exploration, reduce uncertainties, and optimize investment decisions.<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that efforts are being made to establish mineral processing hubs to add value and reduce dependence on raw mineral exports.<\/p>\n<p>Represented by the ministry\u2019s Permanent Secretary, Dr. Mary Ogbe, the minister reaffirmed the federal government\u2019s commitment to fostering innovation-driven growth in the mining sector.<\/p>\n<p>NMGS President Prof. Akinade Shadrach Olatunji stressed that agriculture, combined with innovative geoscience and mining solutions, could transform Nigeria\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p>He highlighted that industrialized nations have long recognized this, investing heavily in geoscience and mining agencies staffed by top experts, sometimes recruiting globally to ensure optimal performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor Sule called for the removal of
