The Executive Secretary of NEITI, Dr Ogbonnaya Orji, who also outlined the conditions while speaking as special guest at the 2nd German-Nigeria Symposium on Green Hydrogen held in Abuja, stated that more gas was flared in the country during the period it reviewed than utilised.
He explained that with the United Nations projection of Nigeria’s population to rise to over 260 million in 2030 and over 400 million in the year 2050, there was an urgent need for deliberate investments in technology, innovation, exploration, production and commercialisation of gas for Nigeria to meet the net zero target set for the year 2060.
