The Federal Government has explained how illegal mining activities worsen insecurity in Zamfara state before its April 7th prohibition order and launch of special operations to stop bandits in the state.
The Minister of Information and Culture Lai Mohammed said banditry, kidnapping, killing and cattle rustling were largely sponsored by the illegal miners in the state.
He added that the miners were fueling instability in the state to pave the way for their illegal activities.
Mohammed said that the commencement of “Operation PUFF- ADDER”, a full-scale security offensive against the bandits, had yielded results in the past weeks.
He urged Nigerians to give deserving credit to the police and the military who, though overstretched, are doing their best to keep the country safe.
