MAN, NACCIMA partner to drive mining investments
The Miners Association of Nigeria (MAN) and the Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA) have partnered to strengthen collaboration between entrepreneurs and miners ahead of the annual Nigeria Mining Week 2026.
The event, scheduled for October 12 to 14 in Abuja, will serve as a convergence point for mining stakeholders, policymakers, and investors.
NACCIMA members, including those outside the mining sector, will travel from across the country to participate.
NACCIMA said it would create a pavilion that would enable member companies to advertise their businesses, products and services in a way that resonates with the mining industry.
“Nigeria’s mining sector presents significant opportunities for enterprise development, value addition, job creation and economic diversification,” Jani Ibrahim, NACCIMA national president, said.
He said the association “will contribute to a strong NACCIMA Pavilion that showcases the capability, diversity and investment potential of Nigerian businesses.”
Dele Ayanleke, MAN national president, said the strategic partnership will pave the way for “Nigerian enterprises across the mining value chain.”
Mr Ayanleke said, “The growth of Nigeria’s mining sector requires strong collaboration among industry, government, investors and the wider business community.
“Our partnership with NACCIMA creates an important bridge to Nigerian enterprises across the mining value chain. We look forward to welcoming NACCIMA and its members to Nigeria Mining Week 2026 and to seeing the NACCIMA Pavilion become a platform for meaningful business connections and investment.”
