Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, has explained that his company has embarked on actions that'll triple Nigeria's gas supply.
Nigeria depends on natural gas for about 80 per cent of its electricity generation, but the country suffers from gas supply shortfall to its power plants.
Dangote Group is building a 1,100-kilometer pipeline which would give the country three billion cubic feet of gas, compared to the nation’s current consumption of one billion cubic feet.
“We are doing a gas pipeline through the sea, 550 km each for two lines, which is about 1100km from Bonny to here (Dangote Industries Free Zone, Lekki, Lagos). And that will give us three billion cubic feet of gas," Aliko Dangote said.
"At the moment today, the entire consumption of Nigeria is one billion cubic feet. So, we are going to triple that all at a stretch.” Dangote said.
“We are going to evacuate through the gas pipeline. Anybody who has gas can tap into our gas pipeline and it will come down here and we will now connect to other areas going to the North, like Ajaokuta area, the west, Ogun and others.”
