Terchire (A/R), April 16, GNA – Alhaji Collins Dauda, Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Lands and Natural Resources, has recommended a unit of the military deployed and permanently stationed in forest reserves to ward off illegal miners.
He was of the view that many approaches of the government had not been successful but was optimistic that when this approach was practiced for a few years, “it will die completely, and we will be able to protect the water bodies and forest reserves.”
