Taraba Governor Agbu Kefas has approved the immediate suspension of all forms of mining activities across the state.
The decision is based on credible security reports indicating threats capable of undermining the current peace being enjoyed by all citizens and residents of the state.
Consequently, the government will constitute a new task force to ensure security and safety for all responsible mining operations after all security threats have been cleared.
A statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Gebon Kataps, says all local government councils and traditional rulers are hereby directed to ensure strict compliance with this suspension order.
