I disagree. With all the wealth and riches of resources of Africa, the leaders squander for a tenth of a penny to fatten their own private pockets while virtually giving away everything the rest of the nations are shucking and jiving for well below the value or global demand 💯 What happens to Africa and the people after everything has been squandered and there is no longer anything of value to barter with ⁉️
This is very true of the Nigerian situation, in the state of Nasarawa, Zamfara etc. Nasarawa state has about 3 mining sites and from a practical experience I can testify to this fact.
Because the paper-printing countries determine the value of the resources of the real wealthy countries. If the resource-rich countries don't reject fiat and change the dynamics, it only gets worse
Paper printing countries are rich because that is where the brains is, they are the ones who spend billions in research and development and thereby finding uses for your resources. As for Africa they just don't seem to be interested in doing it themselves. Even with the best fertile land in the world you're not really big in Comercial agriculture, excluding South Africa. Forever finding scapegoats like colonialism will continue to hold Africa back. Get up and do something please.
Exactly. This is the first time I'm even hearing we have lithium in the North. We're it to be in the south, the federal govt would have been involved. Smh
India is also showimg greed in Nigeria. Why speaking only of the Chinese. As a Nigerian, I hate the double standard . By the way, my village also has this.
Precisely. It's a biased report. Everyone knows locals are responsible for this and not China. It's the locals that hire workers and supervise these mines. That's how businesses are done in Nigeria. But these guys just want to speak bad about China.
Lithium is all about the Chinese. If there is anything you know about India it's better to speak up rather than attacking the one speaking up.

What I have to say to this as I am a compatriot of Nigeria 🇳🇬 : I have been wondering why so many black Africa countries are so rich in mineral resources and we are still poor, we still depend on the white b4 we make living in this civilized world. Why has God gifted us natural resources and never gifted us the right knowledge and mentality on how to utilize them but only how to sell them for token just for survival. If not for education, we will still be enslaved directly or indirectly due to the low mentality and rate of poverty in this black African countries. I think the solutions to our problems are to firstly be educated and make research on how we can utilize this resources for our selves, rather than selling it to white ones for token price. We own it, its in our land, and still yet suffering for it. What is happening?. We need to start new beginning from this generation, thanks to the British of 20th century who brought education to Nigeria. The higher the poverty, the lower the mentality, the higher the rate at which we are gonna sell our resources out for token exchange.
It took 10 years for this story to come out when US is going to just about put a ban on lithium goods made in China. I would've probably changed how I look at e cigs and other devices
The notion that a child working automatically constitutes abuse or exploitation is a relatively modern Western perspective. In many African cultures, children have traditionally assisted their parents with various tasks from a young age, such as: - Hunting and gathering - Fishing - Fetching water - Herding livestock In the west a child can't sale candy without the parents getting in trouble.Aliko dangote the richest black man was selling sweets in school.Why should parents be in trouble for teaching their children hard work and business wisdom at an early age????. While it's essential to acknowledge that exploitation can occur, it's also important to recognize that not all instances of children working constitute abuse. Cultural context and nuances should be considered when evaluating these situations.
Nigeria 🇳🇬 is the Richest country in the world 🌎 with almost all the natural resources available in it but with government with poor mentality in only thinking about themselves and their family. Till Nigerians wake up to this people poverty will always be rampant here.
I'm a miner, what those children are playing with is Mica, not Lepidolite. Children rarely do anything in the mines, only in sorting centers you'll find very few children.
By the way FirstPost, i have always known all yout reports on China are exaggerated and negative. Its annoying. You are supposed to be a different type of news media but all you do is repeat the same anti-China propaganda of the West. There are Indian schools in Nigeria where Nigerians are denied admission.

Terrible. Who is cheating who? Lithium and solid minerals in the northern Nigeria is national wealth or exclusive of the Federal government government but personal. While the oil and minerals in Southern Nigeria belong to Federal government. Honestly is an injustice. 😢😢
The people in Niger Delta (the oil-producing states) should stop the federal government and their agencies from drilling oil in the region if the federal government does not also manage the mining of these other minerals like lithium.
That is what bother me to nobody should be keeping for the for the benefits of the Nigerian citizens that is selling them away to the Chinese government so this is why I said China don't have too much time to move being Africa because we got to keep China house and we need all those mineral resources please
This business. Corrupt regime in Nigeria selling every thing in hurry than to use inside talent like many other countries. And Pakistan is one of them.
Does mineral resources that Nigeria have is what Nigeria can accumulate and be selling them to all these people and use that money to pay salary for all these youths like every month that will help me like 1,000 special in their pockets without them being and they're going to school starting all this stuff and they just be educated just educated his kids instead of exploiting them
Extremely rich mineral Nigeria, is the poverty capital of the world, with the worst kind of leaders you can find anywhere in the world. I once went for pipeline inspection on top of a 22km long mountain in middlebelt nigeria. This 22km long mountain is made up of more than 50% iron ore.

What does an Indian channel want the children to do? Is there not another way to report this? I thought this channel criticized the West for how it portrayed Africa in their media.
