Nigeria's Bola Tinubu Calls for End to Unfair Exploitation of Africa's Critical Minerals
The president made the call while receiving a delegation of the African Minerals Strategy Group (AMSG), a forum of mining ministers, at the State House.
Key points from Tinubu, the group's patron:
🟠"The rest of the world won’t mind if your country is a cesspit of dams and rubbish and excavates your raw materials without giving value."
🟠Minerals should bring value, technology, and prosperity through local research, development, and refining.
🟠Tinubu called for centralizing mineral development conversations across the continent and building a knowledge-based economy.
He also urged AMSG members to strengthen Africa's bargaining power in the global mineral market.
