Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76597, member: 636"] Nigeria rolled out 40 electric buses in Abuja through the Presidential Compressed Natural Gas Initiative, with Gas Minister Ekperikpe Ekpo backing the clean energy push. PiCNG boss Ismael Ahmed said these vehicles will hit the streets by next week to cut transportation costs during the holiday season, and the program plans to power charging stations using CNG instead of relying on the grid. Ahmed broke down how the initiative expanded over 20 months by building 58 refueling stations across 28 states, training over 6000 people, and landing more than $2 billion in investment commitments. The next phase targets local manufacturing of CNG equipment at Ajaokuta Industrial Park and more charging infrastructure along major highways. President Tinubu will show up for the Kano State launch early next year as the program shifts focus toward making clean mobility affordable and accessible across the country. [/QUOTE]
