CNG Initiative: Nigeria to Cut Transportation Cost by 40%

The Nigerian Government has announced a plan to increase compressed natural gas infrastructure and cut transportation fares by over 40 percent.

This initiative was formalised during a Memorandum of Understanding signing ceremony in Abuja on Friday, which brought together key stakeholders, including representatives from the National Union of Road Transport Workers from Itakpe, Adavi, and Ajaokuta train station units in Kogi State.

The Programme Director of the Presidential Compressed Natural Gas Initiative, Michael Oluwagbemi, emphasised the government’s commitment to affordable transportation amidst rising fuel prices.
