Nigeria Shifts to Natural Gas Amid Rising Transport Costs

Reported about 7 hours ago

In response to soaring transport prices following the removal of petrol subsidies, Nigeria is embracing compressed natural gas (CNG) as a more affordable alternative. The government has initiated a plan to convert one million vehicles to run on CNG, investing over $200 million into the initiative. Despite the potential for cost reductions, obstacles such as a lack of infrastructure, limited public awareness, and misinformation are hindering the transition. While some drivers have switched and report substantial savings, challenges remain in terms of accessibility and safety perceptions surrounding CNG.
