Gas Flare: Enugu puts out fire, vows to harness state’s gas potential

By Chioma Gabriel

Men of the Enugu State Fire Service have successfully put out the gas flare that erupted during a borehole drilling activity at the Federal Housing Estate in Ugwogo Nike, Enugu State, as the state government restated its determinations to convert the state’s dormant gas and other mineral resources to productive assets.


This was even as the state government warned against drilling of boreholes without the authorisation of the State Ministry of Environment and Climate Change as well as other relevant government agencies.

This was made known by the Commissioner for Environment and Climate Change, Prof. Sam Ugwu during an inspection tour of the gas flare incident at Nike on Sunday.

Recall that the gas flare occurred at about 10:30 pm on Saturday and lasted till the early hours of Sunday, resulting in the rig operators and some residents scampering for safety.

Speaking during the on-site inspection, Ugwu, who was also accompanied by the Special Adviser to the Governor on Energy and Mineral Resources, Mr. Kingsley Nnaji, thanked the firemen led by the Chief Fire Officer, Engr. Okwudiri Ohaa, for their prompt intervention.

“As was rightly pointed out, we had this experience around the Caritas University last year and this is the second incident.

“The government is going to investigate the incident further because already, we have environmental laws. They were supposed to have applied to the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change. The Ministry would come here to do an Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) and then there would be a letter of commencement, which would be issued by the Ministry. So, I advise anybody going into the ground to do the proper thing to avoid this kind of experience we now have here. But for the prompt intervention of the State Fire Service, this could have caused the loss of lives and houses around this place

“But these gas eruptions have also further confirmed Governor Peter Mbah’s statement that we have both solid and liquid mineral resources in abundance in Enugu State, which his administration is very much interested in harnessing for the good of the people of Enugu and the nation in general.

“So, Enugu cannot be known as Coal City alone because we have gas, limestone, kaolin, gypsum, and other mineral resources in abundance. That is why the present government is very interested in bringing local and foreign investors to come and invest in these mineral deposits”, Ugwu stated.

Narrating the incident, the Chief Fire Officer, Engr. Ohaa, said the experience garnered by the Fire Service during such an accidental gas eruption around Caritas University, Nike, helped them apply the right measures to stop the flare.

“What readily came to mind was the incident at Caritas University last year, around 24 May to be precise. That Caritas University incident took us roughly three weeks to quench because we never had such an experience before. But with the support of the government that has continued to finance us for emergencies like this, we were able to put off this one in less than eight hours. It shows that the Enugu State Government is not joking about making the state State the first choice for investment”, he stated.

He warned residents of the area to respect the cordon by the servicemen and also avoid coming close to the site with fire of any kind. He, however, assured that his men would be on the ground until the flow totally stopped.

A resident of the estate, Engr Boniface Ogbueje told newsmen that the incident caused pandemonium, but commended the State Fire Service for saving the situation.

“We thought the rig or the vehicle had gas leakage and caught fire. Eventually, this was not the case. The fire continued to increase and increase. People were running helter-skelter, but the firemen came quickly and were able to bring the fire under control after several hours. God really helped us”, he said.

Meanwhile, a staff of the drilling firm, Orange Drilling Company, Kamarudeen Ado, said they were taken unawares as they least expected the presence of natural gas in the water pumping up.

He, however, confirmed that there was no loss of lives or property, while those injured were receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital

socialmediaman:
Peter Obi's name everywhere on nairaland Lol. Aren't you guys supposed to be busy celebrating?

Of course this is the best they can do, open a hundred threads per day throwing lame jabs at Obidients thinking they've won, but have you really won though? Even BAT supporters are too hungry to come out and celebrate the so called Supreme Court verdict on the streets, when dem never even see money to buy fuel? You know it's bad in Nigeria when Tinubu supporters on nairaland had to resort to posting fake AI generated images of "Nigerians celebrating on the streets of Lagos and the North" which they quickly deleted when they were called out for their stupidity.

This is Nigeria as Falz would say, a country where a poor man will mock his fellow poor man over the rich man who doesn't give a fucck about his well-being.

omenka:
They're not called AfghanEasternis for nothing.

Just look what a mess they've made of their region, all because of one stupid boy who leveraged on their disappointment over the outcome of an election, drive them to HATE the elected one and his tribesmen and his party, and promised them some utopia called Biafra.

Meanwhile, all he desired was to enrich himself. Now they've got hot molten steel on their hands.

How sad.

This mentally unstable idiot comes FROM BENUE STATE, gentlemen and Ladies (if there any here) once again let me reiterate for emphasis sake- this deranged pig who has the gall and temerity to malign the South East COMES FROM BENUE STATE- a state that is officially the burial ground HQ of Nigeria, a state where no less than 10-20 human beings get slaughtered like festive rams and goats, a region that is projected to be extinct in the next 10-20 yrs with all the massacres going on there on daily to weekly basis, a region where hunan lives isn't worth a strand of used tissue paper! A region where Fulani use the populace to test new killing frenzies and use the women as sex slaves. This is the Benue sewage rat talking shit about insecurity in the SE! imagine the audacity? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Than the ones back home? are they unhinged from reality or are the ones back home getting it all wrong?

The report looks like something one Tunde Azeez meticulously cobbled together from his phone and sent to the "APC whatsapp group" for vetting before sending it to random blogs for click-bait and ethnic jingles, very anyhow report.

I hope Igbos start ignoring daft threads from Igbo-obsessed morons like the OP, maybe one sharp "Omo Ibo" stole his girl or something

Tinubu is destroying this country with his nepotic yoruba run government, naira has crashed against the dollar, unemployment rates have skyrocketed, all the economic indices are looking bad for Nigeria right now on the global market, they've scammed us with the Dangote refinery they promised will be operational for months now, even the "yoruba ronu" pro-Tinubu conservatives are the ones begging on Twitter X and dropping account numbers for giveaways etc

When all things go wrong for them, they resort to the old but effective playbook of deception through distraction- by regurgitating some half-baked historical tales by moonlight from 1966 about how Igbos did this and did that...simple question I always ask them is, if Igbos caused all this problems for Nigeria since 1966 which was when last time Igbos ever ruled Nigeria through Major Gen Aguiyi Ironsi, what then have the successive governments dominated by the North and South West in all his majestic wisdom done to "undo" the mishaps of 1966? basic mathematics tells us 1966 till now was 57 years ago! what have the Northern dominated governments from the military to civilian regimes along with the SW done to make Nigeria any better? Absolutely nothing!

Very soon morons from the SW will start blaming the Igbos for why the white man slapped their great great great grandfather in 1809 in Ijebu Ode for refusing to carry his bag. Awon oniranu LMFAOOOO

ChrisKels:
Those of you who saw the match against Mozambique, how was Toru's performance?

Had a decent cameo, can't remember him putting in a wrong foot all game perhaps save for his poor positioning in the first Mozambique goal. I hope to see more of him with Bassey in the world cup qualifiers.

See my dear Imo state chei Uzodinma has finished my state...this is embarrassing to the core. Ndi Imo really need to make this November gubernatorial election a do or die affair to vote Uzodinma out for good, before the lunatic completely destroys the legacy of a state the great Sam Mbakwe worked so hard to build.

I doubt this Ebubu character is truly from Ebonyi state, cause I haven't met anyone more bitter towards his fellow Igbos than that guy, every Ebonyi person I've met have always been unapologetically Igbocentric to the core, really enterprising and welcoming people.

But this news is old now? happened in 2017 or thereabout so why is this being recycled like it's recent? honestly Nairaland is a literal jungle right now.

Ifeanyi Ubah seems to be the new face of leadership in Alaigbo, and he's a young visionary with a solid track record. May God bless and sustain his efforts.

We dey here dey worry our sef, maybe Miss Tinubu is a transgender for all we know

plaindealer:
Nna, stop abeg, that marginalization skit no dey work anymore because there's no marginalization anywhere, there's nothing in Nigeria or any rights in Nigeria that you are being denied, you move freely to other parts of the country where you are welcomed, where you thrive, live and make money peacefully, more peacefully than your own brutal and violent region where terrorists force you to sit at home.

You have governors, senators, reps locally and nationally just like the rest of Nigeria, you collect taxes and allocations just like the rest of Nigeria so who is marginalizing you?

When it's time to brag, you don't remember marginalization, you say you are the richest, the most educated, the most industrious and you own everything in Nigeria, you own and develop Lagos and Abuja, but when it's time to play your emotional blackmail game, you are all of a sudden marginalized by the same people you run to outside your region to make a living unmolested and undisturbed.

This is 2023, that marginalization and victim mentality rubbish is tired, played out and not working.


Sit down with that rubbish abeg.

You can argue yourself into half-truths and deceitful rants for all I care, but we know Igbophobia is inherently an incurable cancer among bastards like you and your people, I personally disassociate myself from your kinds and I just pity the stupid and naive Igbos who still drink from the poisoned chalice of "One Nigeria". Any dunce who is familiar with the sociopolitical firmament of that country will easily spotlight the bigotry and envy towards Igbos from a distance, even Non-Nigerians know these things.

So f**k you and your people, your worthless takes about Igbos will never make your miserable life any better cause you are poor, wretched and will die bitter.

tsdarkside:
carry your south eastern states and go....

we no want una around atall....

You're beneath me, so you were never a factor in the 1st place

Xbox2005:
It was expected of them going back to their agitation.we all knew their intentions of professing fake love for the country.The headless mob will start with their "Biafra or death"again.Obi olule pii

You don't love Nigeria more than the Igbo man next door, neither have you even sacrificed more than him for love of country despite the marginalizations he has faced. So save us the boring tripes and gaslighting rhetorics and maybe show us your certificate of congratulations for being the most patriotic Nigerian ever, you insufferable fool.

Lol,

See yoruba logic: so because Buhari did his own fulanization government, then it's perfectly OK for Tinubu to do his own yorubanization, meanwhile Abass Adeleye who belongs to the "yoruba ronu" think-thank is not buying fuel any cheaper than Chinedu or Mohammed, the suffering touches everybody like rain... here is the exact reason Nigeria will always remain stagnant while other African nations are fast leaving us behind...for people who pride themselves as being "sophisticated" it's funny to see how low yorubas have reduced themselves.

Anyway sha I'm glad I've left una Nigeria already, I never knew what a fresh breath of sanity meant until I entered Canada, may God continue to bless my uncle for taking me away from Nigeria.

Ironically he met his own end in the most brutal of ways in the hand of his own fellow Northerner, Dimka.

Towards of the end of the video if you pay attention closely, the said guy (the yoruba hostage) motioned to the unseen persons in the background to "cut the video", something a film director will do after a satisfying act from his cast. If the video is truly what it is made out to be, I hope justice is served and the bastards behind the dastardly act are brutally hunted down and killed, but this is Nigeria., the ethnic media warriors will be having a feast of singular narratives over this one without waiting for facts to emerge FIRST because their past-time enemies Igbos are involved as usual...but if this is an "act" to stoke the embers of ethnic tension and crisis by some elements for reasons best known to them...then I hope this madness we're all cooking will be served to all and sundry.

taylor89:
