Nuhu Salifu

VP Sandvik West Africa

Nuhu Salifu is the Vice President: Sales Area West Africa for Sandvik, where he drives strategic growth and operational excellence across one of the continent’s most critical mining regions. A seasoned executive and recognized thought leader in the sector, Nuhu combines deep technical expertise with a strong advocacy for industrial policy and regional integration. Building on his contributions to Mining Indaba 2025, where he championed the expansion of mining support services and local value creation under the AfCFTA framework, Nuhu continues to lead the conversation on modernizing African mining. For MI26, he addresses the theme of "Mining without compromise," exploring how advanced technologies enable mining operations to meet rigorous ESG targets while scaling production. Nuhu believes that the future of the industry lies at the intersection of robust support services and disruptive innovation. He actively partners with mining houses and policymakers to demonstrate how automation, digitalization, and innovative solutions can deliver "zero-harm" environments. His leadership ensures that West African operations do not just adapt to global standards, but set new benchmarks for sustainable, high-performance mining.
