as it has been on the drawing board for too long and investors’ confidence is being affected. This project holds a lot of prospects for us as a state and for the nation.
We are truly ready to have reforms in the gas sector; it will aid our economic development, not only in harnessing our gas reserve but also providing jobs for our teeming youths,” he said, adding “this Coverproject is the litmus test for the development of the gas roadmap in the country.”
He assured that “the state is ready to provide the needed environment to ensure that the project begins
immediately, in order to build confidence among the investors and the community
that have provided us with the land,” pledging the state government’s support

Booked, if it's get to the promise land I will comment.

I hope to here Islamization agenda. The rich and the political class have a way of catering for their common interests without being tribalistic or resorting to religious bigotry. Very soon those without knowledge of the location of Ogidigben will swarm this thread and embark on religious and ethnic induced sentimental death roll.
