Secretary to the state government Ahmed Ibrahim Matane made the announcement yesterday in Minna. He said the suspension is indefinite and or when the situation will normalize. The said the aim is to also check the rising spate of insecurity in the affected areas after thorough security profiling.

 

The government said the mining sites now attract, and even accommodate criminals with prospective threats to security of lives and properties. The SSG warned that any mining operator caught engaging in mining activities in the areas mentioned would face the full wrath of the law.
