Nigeria, Morocco Sign Agreements On Regional Gas Pipeline, Chemical Plant, Agric Training

The Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Kingdom of Morocco on Monday in Rabat, Morocco, signed three agreements, which includes a regional gas pipeline that will see Nigeria providing gas to countries in West Africa sub-region that extend to Morocco and Europe.

The signing of the agreements, witnessed by President Muhammadu Buhari and King of Morocco, His Majesty King Mohammed V1, followed a meeting between the two African leaders that focused on strengthening economic relations in gas resource development, global investments and agricultural training and management.

The feasibility study of the agreement on the pipeline, which was signed by the Group General Manager, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mr Farouq Said Garba, and Mrs Amina Benkhadra, Director General of the National Office of Hydrocarbon and Mines, will be concluded by July 2018.

The construction of the pipeline will be phased and based on increasing needs of the countries crossed, and Europe, for the period of 25 years.

The Nigeria Morocco Gas Pipeline (NMGP), designed to be 5,660km long, will reduce gas flaring in Nigeria and encourage diversification of energy resources in the country, while cutting down poverty through the creation of more job opportunities.

The NMGP will further encourage utilisation of gas in the sub-region for cooking, and discourage desertification.

At the ceremony, the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Nigeria Sovereign Wealth Authority, Mr Uche Orji and the Chief Executive Officer of the Office of the Management of Phosphate in Morocco, Mr Mostafa Terrab signed a Memorandom of Understanding for the development of a chemical plant in Nigeria for producing ammonia and its derivatives.

The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Chief Audu Ogbeh and his Moroccan counterpart, Mr Aziz Akhannouch, signed a cooperation agreement on vocational training and technical supervision, which will enhance skills on better management of agricultural outfits in Nigeria.

President Buhari, who was received by a large crowd from the airport to the Rabat Royal Palace, assured the King of Morocco of Nigeria’s full commitment to the actualisation of all the agreements signed.

Nigeria in big mess under these idiots

C d Fulani hendsmen sitting dwn

okay

Gas supply to Nigeria is not yet satisfy. You signed to supply Morocco again Baba!

Good. But though Nigeria has huge deposits of NLG in its Niger-Delta basin, corruption, lack of political will power and technical-know-how had made our natural gas industries unattractive for years.

So, building a gas pipeline without developing the industries which would supply the pipeline with gas is a white elephant project.

The Moroccans would have think of this thoroughly if they had a Parliament, independent of the monarch's control. Their monarch is just about wasting it depleting funds just to gain access to ECOWAS membership and consolidate its hold on the independent state of western Sahara.

In another news: Buhari still remains a failure!

we

cost wasn't mentioned anywhere.......Buhari can not suprise us even small.

I am not disappointed. I don’t expect wailers to see anything good in exporting Nigeria to the world.

All sorts of good news we've ever gotten from this government has remained exclusive to the paper only. 2019 is just around the corner though.

Weve not used the gas to power our own country we are looking for how to buld pipeline to send it to West Africa and Europe.

These guys are literally brain frozen! How we end up with these kinds of leaders is still a mystery

This deal is a joke ,

It's a beautiful deal, the only problem is the transparency in accounting for the revenues generated from these sectors. Nigeria can be a major power in the scheme of things if we can properly develop and manage our gas sector. We can use it as a bargaining chip to make beneficiary nations dance to our political tunes.
We should also develop the national gas master plan it's a bigger alternative to DPK and developed nations are already into this plan.
But That look on Buhari's face though, hope he knows what that guy is signing.

Wailers, your food don show.

Good deal on paper. Nigeria should be king in Africa when it comes to gas.
Now
A smart government would understand why gas supply is irregular in Nigeria and find a permanent solution to it.

Buhari till 2023.

Will you vote for PMB in 2019? If No, who will you vote for?

Gas supply within Nigeria is not regular even to west African countries, now you're signing Morocco's own.
OK o, continue

Its actually not a bad deal. Nigeria still flares gas massively and that is a literal definition of burning money.

The problem is nobody has tried to solve the whole oil sector issue because it's a very very dark hole. Lots of people benefitting from the lack of transparency.

Like I picked your brain

This explains the extravagant welcome they gave him.

Igbos will not be happy about this
