Fayemi Calls For Removal Of Mining From Exclusive List by Blue3k(m): 9:30pm On Nov 26, 2017 |
The Minister of Mines and Steel Development, Kayode Fayemi, has canvassed an urgent review of the country’s laws to allow states play more prominent roles in mining issues as a necessary step in making the mineral and mining sector more profitable.

Smart I hope NASS listens to him. I know a good number northern states would love this, if not all of them. This on top of 13% derivation would be very nice. It is critical that we create 2 million jobs per annum to help absorb such manpower over the coming decade; Are u guys anywhere close to this number per year. That's a tall order but it's possible. 1 Like |

Hmm..can this pull through? I also implore the federal government to look into the possibility of each state generating their own power supply,and paying tax to the federal account. Who is with me on this..? 12 Likes |

For this to fly and enjoy maximum support, they must be prepared to decentralise d oil n gas sector and cut down that centralised control currently being exploited by the FG. If mining is removed from d exclusive list without taking crude oil drilling along, there's no telling what will become of the Niger Delta. 23 Likes 3 Shares |

freeze001:Which is precisely why it will never happen. If there's one thing large parts of the Nigerian elite (and in particular the northern portion) won't tolerate, that is losing access to the Niger Delta's oil rents. Just consider that the same northerners who stand to gain the most from the abolition of the Land Use Act - since they have the most land - are willing to keep it in place forever, even to the detriment of their own rural populace, if the alternative is "resource control". So many of Nigeria's problems can be laid at the door of the massive oil rents which politicians cynically use religion and tribe to fight over. 4 Likes 1 Share |

freeze001: Well the constitution says oil and gas are included under minerals. It would be foul of them to try an exclude it from concurrent list. The oil and gas being in concurrent list wouldn't change much. The ND states benefit too much to hurt the goose that lays golden eggs. Then allocation is staying put since nobody in government wants and end to it. 1999 constitution Second Schedule Legislative Powers Exclusive Legislative List 2 Likes 1 Share |

Blue3k:The northerners will only love it if they can continue to treat oil revenues differently, but even they know that would probably lead to all-out warfare in the ND if Buhari's government were foolish enough to try such a thing. Given the choice between Are u guys anywhere close to this number per year. That's a tall order but it's possible.It isn't possible from mining alone. As resource-rich as South Africa is, they have never managed such a feat, while even more resource-rich Australia has only 25 million people in total, most of whom have nothing to do with mining. The only way Nigeria's millions of unemployed will ever find meaningful work is through massive industrialization, and that will require vast sums of FDI the country is nowhere close to being able to attract. In addition, it doesn't help matters that Nigerians continue to churn out vast numbers of new children to join the ranks of the already unemployed "youths", so massive industrialization without serious population control is also destined to fail. 10 Likes |

omohayek: The oil rents wouldn't stop from what I can see. The allocation firmly stuck in constitution for every tier of government. The only thing that changes is percentages historically. All this would change is how much states regulate mineral activities. The Land use act I can't fathom why they are spitting their face keeping that law from Obassanjo's coup. It would be pure paranoia that have anyone spite their face. Agree on both point two. I just meant in general not just mining. It would be impossible unless they don't plan in using time saving machines. Lol you know I'm all about industrialization. I just see mining and manufacturing as nice. Example being the potential integrated aluminium industry I think is possible If the FDI was present. |

Blue3k:The northerners have openly said why they want to keep the Land Use Act: because they fear that getting rid of it will lead to "resource control through the back door". See the following: The senators had been sharply divided along geopolitical lines on Tuesday, following push by northern senators to reject the proposed amendment to the Land Use Act.If Nigerian politicians really governed in the best interests of their electorates, it would be harder for them to behave this way, as the Land Use Act is a huge part of why so many northern and middle-belt farmers remain desperately poor. Unfortunately, the primary interest of Nigeria's political elites is self-enrichment, and helping subsistence farmers to gain access to credit markets is not such a great means of making millions of dollars in a few years, while getting bigger federal allocations is. It's a nice dream, but the only way it will happen is under radically different leadership than what Nigeria has now or is likely to in the future. It would require somebody with the economic and financial knowledge of an El-Rufai or a Fashola in the presidency, but that's not likely to happen while the likes of Atiku, Buhari and even Jonathan are still dreaming of going to Aso Rock in 2019. 3 Likes |

this will work well if Nigeria is restructured and states have full access to their natural resources. this will enable healthy competition and rapid development. first time I will hear sense from Buhari's cabinet. |

BruncleZuma: Essentially the rights he doesn't want natural resources and mining to be exclusively in control of Federal government. This why he wants both states and federal government to share control by putting item in concurrent list. careytommy7: It should since petroleum is included under mining and natural resources in constitution. 1999 constitution Second Schedule Legislative Powers Exclusive Legislative List |

BruncleZuma: Shouting true federalism is a platitude in my opinion. The have to be specific to know how exactly to alter text or delete to achieve that goal. Next like I mentioned before to everyone the allocation system is already in place constitutionally. As good as it is would take more amendments actually. This why any little change takes an amendment from land use to copyright. 1 Like 1 Share |
