Nigerian Boy, 13, Builds Family Home from Mining Savings

13-Year-Old Nigerian Boy Creates House with Mining Earnings

​A 13-year-old boy from Akun Ejiba in the Agidi Development Area of Nasarawa Eggon Local Government Area, Nasarawa State, has reportedly constructed a house for his parents using savings from his work in local mining activities. Community members have commended the young boy for his dedication and commitment to supporting his family.

While this achievement is remarkable, it raises concerns about child labor and the potential health risks associated with mining activities. It’s essential to ensure that children’s rights to education and a safe upbringing are protected, and that they are not exposed to hazardous work environments.
