Turkey and Libya have joined the growing list of foreign countries calling on Nigeria for the supply of natural gas, the Federal Government announced on Tuesday. The Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources, Gabriel Aduda, disclosed this at the second edition of the Domestic Gas Summit organised by the Abuja Chamber of Commerce and Industry. “Libyans have been here, and as I speak to you today they’ve forwarded an MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) to me that they just want gas in Libya and they want Nigerian gas. He said Nigeria has more than 208 trillion cubic feet of gas, stressing that other gas rich nations were taking steps to compete with Nigeria in terms of gas supply. “Its primary objective is to enhance both domestic gas utilisation and the infrastructure needed to make the Nigerian gas industry globally competitive.
