In a bid to accelerate the growth and diversification of Nigeria’s economy through the solid minerals sector, the Senate Committee on Solid Minerals Development has called for deeper collaboration between the federal and state governments.
The call was made during the committee’s oversight visits to Enugu and Ebonyi States, where they met with Governors Peter Mbah and Francis Nwifuru, respectively.
Chairman of the Senate Committee, Senator Ekong Sampson, who led the delegation according to a statement by his panel, emphasized the critical role the solid minerals sector can play in reshaping Nigeria’s economic trajectory.
