The licences are solely owned by Sokoto State government under the aegis of Sokoto Investment Company, SOIC, for the mining of gold and silver among other natural resources.

Governor of Sokoto State Aminu Waziri Tambuwal disclosed this when he received the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, who paid him traditional Sallah homage at the Government Lodge, Sokoto.

The governor further dropped the hint that the reason behind the transfer of the Sokoto Central Market to SOIC is to upgrade the activities of the market to a modern one with a view to generating more revenue.

He decried the current revenue accruing to the state government coffers hence, the need for more ways and strategies of generating incomes so as to have more revenues, assuring that, the state government, in the nearest future, will stand on its feet.
