Governor Bello Matawalle has presented gold bars and an assortment of precious stones, products of Zamfara to President Muhammadu Buhari.
The presentation was done on Monday night at the State House, Abuja.

Zamfara State has the highest gold deposits in the country.

In addition, the state is also known for eight other minerals which are in commercial quantity.

These are are asbestos, columbite, chronite, iron ore, manganese, marble, lithium and tantalite.

The illegal mining of the minerals has been linked to the wave of killings and banditry in the state.

I hope other regions could present their own findings to the state government talk-less of Buhari administration. The West, East and Southern regions should follow this path.

Do u really believe, deep down u, that dividing this country is what will solve each region's problems?? Do u know the story of north and south Sudan?? Do u think if the country is divided today all the greedy men from the east, south, north and west will suddenly stop being greedy?? No, in fact, they will even become more greedy, that I promise u.
