In a bold operation, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has shut down an illicit mining site in Nasarawa State. Led by Commander ACC Attah John Onoja, the successful raid follows previous arrests of foreign nationals and locals involved in illegal mining.

Commander Onoja stressed the urgency of combating illegal mining, citing its devastating impact on Nigeria’s economy and national security. He vowed to continue dismantling such operations, which he described as economic sabotage threatening the nation’s prosperity and GDP growth.

EFCC Arrests Four for Alleged Illegal Solid Minerals Trade

Chinese Brothers, Two Nigerians Detained for Suspected Illegal Mining.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested two Chinese brothers, Wang Jiang and Wang Richard, along with two Nigerian accomplices, Donatus Agupusi and Michael Benneth Agu, for allegedly attempting to export solid minerals without the required permit.

The arrest was made possible by an intelligence tip from the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) on November 3, 2024. Wang Jiang was apprehended at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu after suspicious stones, believed to be solid minerals, were found in his luggage during the hold baggage screening.

Preliminary investigations revealed that Agupusi, owner of Great Wall Construction Limited, is the employer of the other suspects. It was also discovered that Wang Jiang intended to travel to China to conduct tests on the solid minerals. However, none of the four suspects possessed the necessary permit to export the minerals to China.

Charges and Next Steps

The suspects will face charges in court once investigations are concluded. This development highlights the EFCC’s ongoing efforts to combat illegal mining activities in Nigeria.
