Charles Ofoegbu

Charles Ononuju Ofoegbu is a Nigerian geophysicist, academic, petroleum industry executive, and public administrator. He was the managing director and chief executive officer of the Anambra State Solid Minerals Development Company Limited. Quotes The existence of several regulatory organs imposing compliance arbitrarily, without certification from the Council of Mining Engineers and Geoscientists (COMEG), has created inefficiencies and revenue leakages. The abundant minerals in the State are mostly illegally mined, with little or no regulation, resulting in financial losses for the government. The mining sector must align with the Sustainable Development Goals by stimulating economic growth, creating jobs, building resilient infrastructure, and mitigating environmental impacts. The state government is committed to addressing infrastructure gaps, environmental concerns, and investment needs to fully unlock Anambra’s mineral wealth and strengthen its contribution to national development.
