And am like, I am here and I have come to solve the problem, tell me what is happening, solve the problem and nothing is happening”.
“All kinds of mining is taking place within my jurisdiction. Sanding whining is going on uncontrollably without any regard, gravel is been mined and I know nothing about it. I don’t know who give these people permission and based on what law, very unconstitutional activities. I have complained, I have gone to Mineral Commission and Land Commission and I have seen nothing”. He stressed
