🟢Read List Of Natural Deposits In The 36 States Of Nigeria And FCT And Possible Laws To Be Enacted!
Natural Resources are wasting in the thirty six states of Nigeria and government area not doing anything to harness such ores and establish allied companies to utilize such ores to create employment, work and developmental empowerment.
A concerned citizens of the Federal Republic of Nigeria Ambassador Princely Onyenwe is therefore calling on every state legislative arm to as a matter of importance bring up bills to establish functional ministries that will supervise this project across the states.
State Governors are challenged to go back to the drawing board in their respective states to organize seminars anchored on harnessing natural resources domiciled at each state.
Technical committees will be set up to laise with foreign investors to visit each state to evacuate the quantum of ores in each state simultaneously afterwards companies will be set up for maximum production and recycling.
The bill will certainly reduce unemployment and create more jobs for the teeming Youths. Also, the concentration on crude oil will definitely reduce to enable government to diversify on other sources of natural resources deposits in each state.
“Think of a state like Imo establishing a functional Ministry to oversee such projects while building companies across the wards and zones , if rapid development will not erupt.
I am seeing a country filled with industrial and economical turnaround to benefit the teeming Youths in each state with the extraction of God’s given natural resources wasting in the states because of ignorance on the side of government”
The last I checked, I found the following resources in the states and thought it wise to call for the harnessing through strong passage of industrial laws in all the states of Nigeria.

This call is of immediate importance for the government through the state Houses of Assembly to establish a law to provide leadership and expand the economic hub of this great country. Such laws should be enacted for the sustainable growth of the Nigeria. Nigeria need to establish more companies to utilize these ores and multiple same to the final consumers.
Summarily, all the states in Nigeria where these deposits are discovered will benefit from this research while creating more jobs training for the teeming Nigerian Youths. Crude will someday vanish!
