Under the leadership of General (rtd) Jeremiah Aliyu Faransa, the special task force committee conducted another operation at a well-known mining site in Taraba State.
This site, situated in Akwana village within Wukari Local Government Council, had previously been targeted in a raid that resulted in the confiscation of at least seven trucks filled with valuable stones.
Addressing reporters in Wukari on Wednesday, the task force chairman expressed dismay at the ongoing activities of illegal miners in the area.
He pledged unwavering efforts to curb their actions, emphasizing the commitment of Governor Agbu Kefas’s administration to overcoming any obstacles posed by adversaries of the State.
The chairman highlighted a deliberate suppression of revenue generation due to self-serving interests, advocating for a shift in attitudes.
He stressed the governor’s agenda focused on advancing the state’s development and insisted on the necessity of doing what is right for progress.
Asserting his refusal to stand by as nefarious individuals undermine Governor Agbu Kefas’s administration, he reiterated his determination to safeguard the state’s interests.
