Nigeria Grants License for Floating LNG Facility
The Federal Government has issued UTM Offshore Limited a ‘Licence to Construct’ Nigeria’s first Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) facility, with a capacity of 2.8 million tonnes per annum. This project, part of the Decade of Gas Initiative, aims to enhance gas production and utilization in the country. Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas), Ekperikpe Ekpo, emphasized its importance in achieving President Bola Tinubu’s vision to transform the gas industry.
Ekpo commended UTM’s leadership and the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority for their roles in advancing the initiative. He assured the government’s full support, highlighting the project’s potential to boost LNG exports, create jobs, and solidify Nigeria’s position as a key energy player in Africa by 2030.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
