A solid mineral resources support system has been launched by the Federal Government of Nigeria for both current and potential investors worldwide.

While speaking during the launch ceremony, the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, expressed delight over the move, and stated that the support system will enhance the ease of doing business in the Solid Minerals Sector. He explained that the portal served as a one-stop shop for investors and intending investors, to get all necessary information to guide them in making informed investment decisions.

Alake added that his government is presently developing a financial capacity program for local investors who lack the resources to devote themselves entirely to Nigerian Minerals Development. He suggested that investors get in contact with the Ministry via the Solid Mineral Development Fund.

Focusing on the current status of the country, Alake declared that President Tinubu’s first year in office will demonstrate his ambitious goals for Nigeria. The Minister, while acknowledging the economic hardship that the nation is experiencing, urged Nigerians to tolerate the changes and policies, stating that they are good for the benefit of the citizens.

Tunji Ojo, the Minister of the Interior, praised the Ministry for the reforms that have been implemented thus far. Top Ministry Officials, as well as Foreign and Local Investors, were also present at the occasion. In addition, he promised the ministry’s support in achieving complete security for Nigerian mining sites.
