The Legislative Instrument (L.I.) 2462 seeking to strip the President of the power to grant licenses for mining in forest reserves has officially been laid before Parliament.
This comes after the initial attempt to introduce the L.I.
was blocked on Tuesday due to procedural disagreements between the Majority and Minority caucuses.
The Minister for Environment, Science, and Technology, Dr Ibrahim Mohammed Murtala, was set to present the instrument earlier in the week.
