I overheard some people saying kayode Fayemi has been relegated ? I think we need to think deeply about the relevance of the ministry given to him, Its not a matter of being juicy or not, the truth is nothing serious has been happening in the solid minerals ministry. Ministers have been coming in and going out without any reasonable and visible impact. As a graduate of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering from FUTA, I've monitored the ministry since the days of Deziani Maduekwe and nothing serious has been acheived so far. If we really think deeply about the ministry given to fayemi, we will understand that the ministry needs to be revived and resuscitated, since the president want to diversify the economy. We went on a field trip to NIOMCO and Ajaokuta when I was in 300 level, I could not hold my tears because it has turned to a graveyard of economic policy. Imagine the blast furnace has never functioned since it was constructed ? There is a railway linking NIOMCO in itakpe to Ajaokuta. The purpose of the railway is to transfer iron ore from NIOMCO in itakpe to ajaokuta. There are so many pipelines that supplies gas from warri to power their machines, but none of the above has been effective. Fayemi is seriously in for a real brain work, This is his chance to shoot himself to limelight. Make Ajaokuta work, stop importation of chinese billets (semi-finished steel products), revive delta steel company, call the indians in ikirun rolling mills to order, employ graduates. My professor always say any nation that has the control of iron and steel controls the world. Buhari is interested in his brain and not his CV. I wish him success.

Shoo? Only him? Hardwork pays mahn!

goodluck 2 him

Some people are just quick to shout juice juicy as if their state rep' would come and squeeze it into their mouth, if we look away from supporting embezzlement there's no small ministry if the ministers really wants to work.

Thanks for this educative and enlightment piece

I knew the ministry is huge with human and natural resources,but I never knew it also looks cumbersome both on paper and in reality,no wonder Mr-public-stunt-Gov,Fayose was quick to express his appreciation to Buhari for given Ekiti the priviledge to turn the mining sector of the country around.

I have absolute confidence in Fayemi to deliver.

The change movement is here and just begun.

Congrats to Fayemi once again.

God bless Nigeria

He will do it. He will never fail. We are all behind you. The Master Planner.

I wish you success in this somehow huge assignment
When you succeed, Nigeria will be one step closer to success

HE SHOULD CONCENTRATE ON TAPPING ALL THE SOLID MINERALS IN THE SOUTHEAST ESPECIALLY THE COAL MINE IN ENUGU SO THAT IF BIAFRA IS EVENTUALLY DECLARED IN FUTURE, THE IGBOS WILL BE LEFT WITH NO RESOURCES TO DEVELOP THEIR BIAFRA [/size]
