List Of Agencies And Departments Under Fayemi, As A Minister Of Solid Minerals

I overheard some people saying kayode Fayemi has been
relegated ? I think we need to think deeply about the
relevance of the ministry given to him, Its not a matter of
being juicy or not, the truth is nothing serious has been
happening in the solid minerals ministry. Ministers have
been coming in and going out without any reasonable and
visible impact. As a graduate of Metallurgical and Materials
Engineering from FUTA, I've monitored the ministry since
the days of Deziani Maduekwe and nothing serious has been
acheived so far. If we really think deeply about the ministry
given to fayemi, we will understand that the ministry needs
to be revived and resuscitated, since the president want to
diversify the economy. We went on a field trip to NIOMCO
and Ajaokuta when I was in 300 level, I could not hold my
tears because it has turned to a graveyard of economic
policy. Imagine the blast furnace has never functioned since
it was constructed ? There is a railway linking NIOMCO in
itakpe to Ajaokuta. The purpose of the railway is to transfer
iron ore from NIOMCO in itakpe to ajaokuta. There are so
many pipelines that supplies gas from warri to power their
machines, but none of the above has been effective. Fayemi
is seriously in for a real brain work, This is his chance to
shoot himself to limelight. Make Ajaokuta work, stop
importation of chinese billets (semi-finished steel products),
revive delta steel company, call the indians in ikirun rolling
mills to order, employ graduates. My professor always say
any nation that has the control of iron and steel controls the
world. Buhari is interested in his brain and not his CV. I wish
him success.
