It is either you are going forward, or backward, and if you are not going forward, then you are going backward. Nigeria is going backward..

paramakina202:

olas24u:
Using the exchange rate has not been accurate Nigeria is also probably larger

Commentor:
You write with a lot of prejudice and it is exactly why till the end of time, your people would always be victims.

Stop the bullshitting.

UK is not Nigeria where you go about breaking the law.

patrickcollins:
He made a very important point, before u can be able to deliver gas to the EU, there are necessary facilities needed to produce reasonable quantities that can improve our economy which I know Nigeria lacks

kolnel:
nice
Unfortunately, the poor masses won't see the benefits.
More money for the thieving politicians.
I'm sure that's why Tinubu is fighting hard to be the president.

Totilopussylick:
And what will the money be used for

Our politicians will use it to send all of their relations abroad for study.

While your kids and ASSU will begin to sit at home just like that .

If Nigeria were runned by good leaders this is our time to go UAE and seriously seriously cash out and help out nation.
We have one of the highest gas reserve in the world.we have a huge demand but leadership is our curse.
We need a revolution in the country.

The European Union (EU) Delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS said on Friday that, it would replace the gas from Russia with Nigerian Gas due to the invasion in Ukraine.

The Deputy Director-General Department for (Energy), European Commission in Brussels, Mr Matthew Baldwin, said this at a news conference on Friday in Abuja.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Baldwin will be meeting with Nigerian top government officials and private sector players, including key stakeholders in the country’s Energy Sector.

NAN reports that the EU’s executive body had urged member states to slash their gas consumption by 15 per cent as it warned that a complete shutdown of Russian supplies was “likely”.

The EU has been scrambling to wean itself off Russian gas since the invasion of Ukraine, but is alarmed about a potential energy crisis this winter.

“In summary, I am on a mission from Europe to try to deliver Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) today in the context of NLG partnership tomorrow with Nigeria.

“Europe is in a tight spot in relation to gas, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the instability in our gas market, and the threat of cutting off supply altogether.

“So, we have launched the energy platform task force and the primary goal is to reach out to our reliable partners such as Nigeria to replace the gas from Russia with gas from reliable partners, like Nigeria.” he said.

“To be clear, we need to manage the supply side and that’s why we want to expand what is currently at 14 per cent shares of our total LNG import from Nigeria and we want it to go up.

“Our gas percentage was 60 per cent but now we want to go,’’ he said.

He added that Nigerian products had an extraordinary potential and that was why EU wanted to expand the short-term delivery.

Also, he said that by the end of August this year EU hopefully to kick start the partnership, adding that, it would create a long term partnership with Nigeria.

Speaking also, Ms Samuela Isopi, the EU delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS, said that the bloc was doing its part in contributing to the energy sector through different collaborations with Nigerian Government.

She said that currently, EU’s contribution stands at 400 million euros. The EU as a bloc remains Nigeria’s biggest trading partner accounting for more than 20 per cent of Nigerian trade with the world.

In 2021 the volume of EU-Nigeria trade stood at 28.7 billion euros (an increase of more than 25 per cent over 2020) with a trade balance of 6.4 billion euros in favour of Nigeria.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
You are a total illiterate Nigeria's economy is 17 in Africa do not Fool Yourself.. stop fooling yourself illiterate Nigeria is not doing anything with Morocco Nigeria is doing a pipeline to Niger and Chad to give Bandit and fullanese gas. Do you think Morocco can pay for anything and do you think Nigeria can maintain the gas line if with the gas line which is going to Ghana is not been maintained


Do not forget Nigeria is in haunted billion US dollar debt

OfoIgbo:
Congratulations to Peter Obi.

His trip to Egypt has exposed Buhari's government lethargy and corruption in the power sector, so much so that this government was shocked into doing something about Nigeria's totally inadequate power situation.

Egypt only needed six weeks to negotiate with Siemens, while Buhari's government needed many years. If not for Obi's trip to Egypt and Obi's diligence in pointing out how the president of Egypt took the Egypt power situation seriously, Buhari wouldn't have OK'ed this deal to go ahead.

Peter Obi's effect is already being felt. GO and VERIFY

SU50:
As in, if you have been following this story from the last 2-3 years you must have seen this, as long we can maintain consistency, there is light at the last and of tunnel. My fear is let's hope the next administration remains committed and act in overall interest of the nation, things may change for the better.

confluence:
When their term in office is almost over, this was a project conceived years ago by previous government, all they needed to do was to consolidate and continue , the late chief of staff Aba Kyri even travel to Germany several times, nothing was done

RobsonsTARz:
Where did he borrowed $100 million again?

baretalk:
Respect people's privacy, stop disturbing people's sensibilities. They have their own ways, religion and beliefs already, if they want to hear preaching, it's all over the internet. We must understand that they are thousands of religions in this world, stop forcing your religion down people's throats...this is another form of religious fanaticism, which is a form of religious extremism. Public space is for everyone's enjoyment and quiet time, stop disturbing the peace, it's an offence

Islandlady:
Nice one, I wish they can arrest these brainwashed nuisances over here in Nigeria, disturbing the peace of their community early morning

If you are married to white, learn to carry yourself with dignity, elegant and respect and see how racist in-laws will avoid you.

US Vice President a casestudy

magicminister:
So its somehow her fault?
Nigerians living in Nigeria need to shut up on issues concerning racism as most of us cannot relate for real!
I have travelled to over 30 countries and I can tell you that a racist is a racist even if you are the most classy and wealthy and pretty person in that environment. Be guarded!

budaatum:
An American has called Nigeria a failed state every time we are about to hold elections, yet Nigeria is still here standing.

What's unfortunate is that some Nigerians listen to these Americans and want to believe Nigeria is a failed state even though, first, Nigeria is a country and not a state, and second, by any measure more people are killed and more fraud is perpetrated in America than Nigeria. But I guess the idiot Americans calling Nigeria a failed state know we would not bother checking the stats and want to believe some state called Nigeria has failed.

Thankfully, we now have an opportunity to show that we are a vibrant intelligently succeeding people.
