President Bola Tinubu speaks on CNG in Nigeria and shares how the benefits from it aren’t even helping the government but are going into the pockets of truck owners.

While speaking on his promise to help the refinery and the removal of the fuel subsidy to better the country, he spoke on CNG:

“Equally, the introduction of compressed natural gas — well, I will appeal to you: we will do more and encourage you, but ask your drivers to let the benefits trickle down to commuters too, because whatever benefit is coming from CNG is going into the pockets of truck owners. It’s not spreading as fast as I would like, but it should spread.

“The refineries you mentioned are going to come back to work. We’re just building a very firm reset and structural reworking of the economics of it.”

The Nigerian youth leaders of Ogun State call on the government for their support to advance youth development in the state.

“A dedicated ministry will help coordinate opportunities for our young people and ensure that their voices are properly channelled.”
