In a bold move to harness the untapped solid mineral resources in Yobe State, Governor Mai Mala Buni has announced the establishment of the Yobe Mining Development Company (YMDC) and appointed a renowned geologist, Engr. Bamodu Yerima, , as its pioneer Managing Director.

A statement issued by the senior special Assistant Digital and Strategic Communication, Yusuf Ali said the initiative is part of the governor’s strategic reforms aimed at creating job opportunities, boosting the state’s Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), and attracting investments to drive sustainable development.

The Yobe Mining Development Company is tasked with conducting comprehensive feasibility studies on the state’s solid mineral deposits, identifying their commercial viability, and laying the groundwork for attracting investors to unlock their full potential.

Yobe State is known to possess an array of mineral resources, including gypsum, diatomite, limestone, kaolin, and potash, which have remained largely unexploited.

Governor Buni’s appointment of Engr. Yerima, a seasoned geologist with extensive experience in mineral exploration and development, underscores the administration’s commitment in mapping out strategies for the successful exploration and development of the state’s abundant mineral wealth.

This development is in tandem with other key reforms initiated by the Buni administration, including the creation of the Yobe Agency for Public Private Partnership and Investment Promotion (YAPPPIP).

Both the mining company and YAPPPIP are integral components of the government’s broader strategy to open up Yobe State to investments, foster industrialization, and enhance economic opportunities for residents.
