I’ll Push for Inclusion of Mining Rights In Concurrent list -Adebayo

The All Progressives Congress (APC) House of Representatives candidate for Irepodun/Isin/Ekiti/Oke-ero Federal Constituency, Engr C.O Adebayo has promised to push for inclusion of Mining Rights in the concurrent list.

Adebayo in a statement issued on Saturday said his constituency is blessed with mineral resources such as Gold, mica, limestone, marble, quartz, clay and kaolin.

According to him, There is therefore a clear need to include mining rights in the concurrent legislative list of the Nigerian constitution. This will give the state government prominence in mining activities, as well as foster the relationship between the government and the communities.

“The necessary efforts and attention required to make this a success would be fully devoted to it. The result will be an influx of much needed investments in the State.” He added

The Isin local government born politician noted that exploration of mining would lead to job creation, provision of services and a vast of other opportunities.

In his words: “This will significantly reduce youth restiveness. It will also curb the challenge of massive rural-urban drift that is on a rise in the major cities.

“This is our vision. This is part of the impacts we seek to make. This is part of our crusade.”
