30 illegal miners died after the ground collapsed in Kuje Local Government Area in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria.


The chairman of the local council said this on Thursday when the leaders of the local councils of the city met with the Minister of Abuja, Nyesom Wike.


Also, kidnappers kidnapped 19 people on Thursday in Bwari local government area in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria.


The minister - who expressed his concern about these issues - said that he will invite the director of the security agency and the police commissioner of the city to take the necessary measures to free the people.


Mr. Wike also called on local government leaders to establish monitoring committees in their local governments to monitor the activities of miners.


He also said that he will meet with the Minister of Mines, Dele Alake, to put an end to illegal mining activities in Abuja.
