In this episode, we sit down with Madhurii Sarkar Amoda, a leading voice in community development, stakeholder engagement, and sustainable mining practices in Nigeria. 

From growing up in Lagos to navigating the cultural complexities of rural mining communities, Madhurii shares her remarkable journey into the mining sector and the lessons she’s learned building trust between corporations, governments, and host communities. She opens up about managing expectations, negotiating difficult stakeholder relationships, and why integrity and long-term social impact are essential for sustainable development. 

With nearly a decade at Segilola Resources Operating Limited, Madhurii discusses the realities of community relations in the gold mining industry, the importance of ethical sourcing, and the urgent need for stronger rehabilitation and land-use policies in Nigeria’s mining sector. 

This is a powerful conversation about leadership, cultural understanding, conflict resolution, and creating win-win partnerships that benefit both businesses and communities for generations to come.
