The nation’s Liquefied Petroleum Gas, LPG market has been threatened by many problems, including inadequate funding and policy issues. But in this interview with Vanguard Newspaper, Mr. Nuhu Yakubu, the President of the Nigeria Liquefied Petroleum Gas Association (NLPGA), who comments on a wide range of issues, said the future of the sector is not bleak.
Why is NLPGA committed to increasing investment, production and utilisation of LPG in Nigeria? As you may already know, the Nigeria Liquefied Petroleum Gas Association (NLPGA) came about by a deliberate policy of the Federal Government of Nigeria, following the Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources and World Bank jointly commissioned study that was conducted by NEXANT, which report gave good reason for the formation of an umbrella association to pull in and co-ordinate the affairs of the sector, in line with the report recommendations.
