BREAKING: Nigeria Cracks Down on Illegal Mining!
Photos show miners at work in illegal tin mining sites in Jos, Nigeria, while women are also seen working in hazardous conditions.
The crackdown comes as Nigeria seeks to regulate its mining industry, curb illegal activity, and benefit from its rich mineral resources.
The global demand for lithium, tin, and other minerals has surged due to the clean energy transition, making Nigeria’s mineral deposits a hot target.
But illegal mines are rampant, with corruption and remote locations enabling illicit mining practices that fund militia groups.
The recent arrests in Kishi, Oyo State, resulted in 32 arrests, including Chinese nationals, and the seizure of lithium loads.
Locals welcome the crackdown, citing insecurity and environmental concerns.
