Niger State Police Command has arrested over 100 artisan miners out of about 1,000 of them who took over four communities in Shiroro Local Government

“This development. if not immediately checked, will metamorphose into something worse than banditry. Now that the people’s farmlands are being turned into mining sites, there will surely be resistance from them.

“We have, therefore, reported the development to the police and other sister security agencies in the state and action is already been taken to quickly nip the situation in the bud. Our hands are already full with challenges from banditry in the area and we cannot afford to have another one”, he added.
