The Nation Newspaper Economy: Better days are ahead for Nigerians, says Dele Alake
He gave the assurance after an inspection of the $600 million iron ore mining and processing facility owned by African Natural Resources and Mines Limited in Gujeni, Kaduna state.
He however admonished all Nigerians not only to have faith in the administration but to be persistent, consistent, patient and focused as the restructuring efforts pass through the gestation period for the fruits of the efforts to manifest. The Minister then advised, “So, I recommend self-mentality and self-orientation to all of us to be persistent, consistent, patient and focused. When all the restructuring initiates of this government scale through their gestation period, the results will begin to manifest and the whole country will begin to enjoy. I can assure Nigerians that better days are coming.
He commended the company for aligning with the administration’s vision of value addition and beneficiation through its processing of iron ore, urging other mining companies to take a cue from it. He restated the position of the federal government to refrain from granting mining licenses to companies without requisite plans for value addition.
