Lai-Mohammed urged the federal government to provide more accessible funding and support to drive further growth in the sector.
The launch was attended by notable dignitaries, including Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, represented by the Managing Director of LAMATA, Abimbola Akinajo. Others in attendance included Armstrong Takang, CEO of the Ministry of Finance Incorporated; Michael Oluwagbemi, CEO of PiCNG; Yusuf Othman, National President of NARTO; Oluwemimo Osanipin, Director General of NADDC; and Kayode Opeifa, Managing Director of the Nigeria Railway Corporation.
Portland Gas began its CNG project over four years ago, ahead of the federal government’s official presidential initiative on Compressed Natural Gas.
