Hmmm... Celebrating raw material when we can't refine crude after 50 years

The question is if they are in commercial quantity.
How far with the Bauchi_Gombe oil Wells commissioned by za King in za North.
Hope they are producing yanfu yanfu

But these may never be explored till the end of time.

Only the leaders will eventually benefits from these natural God given resources

That of Lagos is not complete.

Lagos also has:
Mica
Oil
Feldspar
Phenakite
Limestone

With all these solid deposits, we are still one of the poorest nation. Maybe this was one of the reasons Jesus Christ wept .





The problem with Nigeria is Nigerians. We have a lot of foolish people in this country

Hehehe.

We have all these,yet we are still wallowing in poverty.

Nigerian leaders I hail una. Some countries have just only one or even non but they are doing great.

We are our own enemy.

He is not going to do anything jare! What did Fayemi achieve in that post? A square peg in a round whole.

My only advice to him will be to sort out the resource control issue if he can. This is part of the reasons state governments are doing nothing about the large deposits under their soil.

Edo State get gold....which area abeg?

Kukutente23:

The oil in the North is meant for North alone

When you attempt to get mining license for these minerals, the high level frustration will make you understand why that sector is not developed.

The only the tin/colombite on plateau state, nassarrawa,and Ibadan can be mined in commercial quantity.
Only 10-20% of tin was mined in plateau state, since it discovery.

Wonderful....
God bless the good people of Southsouth and Southwest .

Southsouth and Southwest will always be one..

A country like Nigeria with all these under our feet have no business borrowing from IMF and world bank

Nigeria and the US suppose dey drag the strongest Passport if not for our greedy leaders....🫥🫥🫥

Nigerians are living and shitting on wealth, it's just mismanagement due to different outlook to life by different nationalities occupying it.
Let everyone go his way and manage their resources however they like

Nigeria is a blessed nation

The problem with the untapped solid minerals has to do with the Nigerian constitution that forbids states from refining them or granting licenses for that, some states would have improved if they are allowed to refine them.

Rather, all solid minerals are controlled by the federal government, whose focus is mainly on oil. Even the ministry of solid minerals is funded by oil money, which is weird - states should be allowed to refine their solid minerals rather than leaving them unattended to.

Anambra also has some oil, and huge gas deposit. Anambra is second to Imo state when it comes to gas deposits. Anambra's gas deposit is larger than the gas deposits of Rivers and Bayelsa state put together.

Lagos also has some offshore oil and gas resources.

Mineral resources or deposit dont make a nation rich. The quality of human resources or human capital development is what makes a nation prosper.

Being able to add value to resources and prudently manage the resultant commerce is what brings prosperity.

Nigeria has none of this
