*****officials say President Buhari sees the pipeline as very “dear” to him.

Officials term it trans-Sahara dessert gas pipeline, envisioned to run from Nigeria’s gas wells through the Sahara Desert to Morocco and onwards to Europe.

“Morocco shares boundaries with Europe. So, once it gets to Morocco, we can hook up with their pipeline system and take our gas straight to Europe through pipelines,’’ Timipre sylva said in Abuja.

“President Muhammadu Buhari and the King of Morocco are very committed to it and we believe that we will take it to an advanced stage,’’ he added.

Meanwhile,In Nigeria, officials say President Buhari sees the pipeline as very “dear” to him. Femi Adesina, his advisor on media and publicity said Buhari wants to see the project succeed.

Ranking as one of the top 10 largest world’s gas resource countries with excess of 600 trillion cubic feet, Nigeria launched what it called the first phase of its gas pipeline project that targets the trans-Saharan and European markets.

It will construct the Ajaokuta, Kaduna, Kano gas pipeline (AKK), which is part of the West African gas pipeline that is already in place, taking gas from Nigeria to Benin Republic, Togo and Ghana. The final lap of the AKK project would extend it to the Sahel and on to Algeria, Morocco and Europe.

The AKK gas pipeline project entails the construction of a 614km natural gas line from the Ajaokuta terminal gas station in the Kogi state in the north central region of Nigeria, through the Federal Capital Territory, Niger, and Kaduna, to terminate at a gas station in Kano.

Wetin all these people de smoke self


Una never alleviate the problems within , una don de talk another



Mmmsshheewww

Lol

When you're confused, at the same time dull and incompetent, this is the trash you will be dishing out to the people.

Buhari wants to lay pipe from here to Europe ? he can only be Buhari

They are eyeing the gas in the East

Where una won get this gas from ...hope it's not igbo land Sha ?

lol abeg I wan ask I hope say all diz drugs wey NDLEA dey seize hope say dem no dey carry am go give awa politicians to take...

Cos person wey normal no fit dey always think laik diz...

Using Europe as the excuse.
Pipelines are going to his uncle's in Niger republic.
The supply of gas to Europe is such a powerful geopolitical economic tool that Russia will make sure such doesn't happen if her interest in threatened..

Mad people.

Apc and the dullard in charge are confused and stupid

People are eating raw grass... farmine is close.. daily deaths and insecurity

Na trans Sahara desert pipeline and railway to Niger be their priority

Is there still hope?

Before they finish setting up the committee for this project 2023 don reach...allow them with their foolery

Mr Press Secretary, are you sure the Algerians have not already beaten us to this. While we still busy “planning”.

The level of delusion of these folks is becoming worrisome, how did Nigerians get here?

Do you understand that this is money for Nigeria almost equal to what we are making from oil?. A lot of you guys should just stick to petty trading.

It is also not Buhari's project. It was conceived during OBJ but PDP never does anything but steal and play on the feelings of tribal inferiority of Nigerians who have that complex

Babanah:

The entire EU is looking for diversity of supply and they will take the entire volumes via long term contracts.
There are also fertilizer plants planned along the route. Don't forget Morroco has the largest Phosphates deposits in the world.

[color=#990000][/color] so Niger is now Europe, Buhari taking oil and gas to his first cousins in Niger and Mali.

Laudable project if achieved.

I like the idea of this project,it's a very cost effective way of moving gas from Nigeria to Europe,at least the entire middlemen logistics section is totally cut off,no need to hire ships to move the gas, no piracy issue on the sea,and the huge insurance cost incurred when moving the gas by sea is also cut off from the eventual cost of the gas.
This is a win-win situation for every country involved in the project.
For those who don't understand the politics of gas,the Russians are literally holding the rest of Europe by the balls cos most of the gas used in Europe is sourced from Russia,the rest of Europe is desperate to get cheaper gas from anywhere apart from Russia.
That said,Gen Buhari should also come up with a gas initiative to power up the whole of Nigeria,let Gas not be another crude oil where Nigeria got almost nothing since independence,I expect government to come up with an industrial gas plan to power industries in every region in Nigeria,kudos though for the Kano gas project,that's a good starting point,I hope this government is able to connect a state in each region to start off this gas power Industrialization initiative

Kano has gas? That means they might find crude oil there.

So the gas can't be supplied with vessels abi.

Laying of pipes doesn't cut it for me.

Waste of time.

white elephant project

Why from Kaduna ? So you want to store Nigerdelta gas in Kaduna and then pump from there to Europe?

Igbo don't have gas mbaise people are the real owner.

Does Kaduna Produce Gas?

Yet buhar is in his 6th year..
Show me the pipe since he already built it


When will you ever make sense
Always talking nonsense like its ur birthright

Mad people.

Christistruth00:

So you want them to say Imo to kaduna to kano to Morocco..
It will defeat thr generational lie that Igbo land contribute nothing. So they won't mention the source

Is good to be wishful sha

kmcutez:

It is flared gas from Niger Delta collected via AGG pipelines and sent North through AKK pipelines.

The AKK project has started and is on course. The trans Sahara part has also found financing.

Nigeria is already doing LNG train 7. There are LNG rə gasification terminals coming up all over the country BUT pipeline gas is much cheaper.
