He said his administration was
committed to realizing the objective, stressing that the resources were
available.
The president spoke at a joint
press conference with visiting president of Togo, Faure Gnassingbe at the
presidential villa, Abuja on Tuesday.
He said: “They say seeing is believing. You can see
the efforts private investors are making. We are also building pipelines but it
is not as formidable as what Dangote is doing. We are improving on it. We also
have the NLNG that is helping is to liquefy the gas and then turn it into gas
with modern technology and modern technology is making it flexible.
“And If
you will recall, I made mention to President of Benin. We have power problem
and Benin has power problem because they depend on us and we are working very
hard to stabilise the situation. The resources are available, the technology is
available we are trying to stabilise the situation.
“If we
improve power which means our productivity can be competitive and God willing,
we are going to achieve our objectives.
“We also
discuss the unfortunate incidents in South Sudan, Burundi. It is an agonising
situation. Several citizens are living under primitive conditions. We hope at
the AU meeting, we will be able to stabilise the situation in South Sudan and
Burundi with the efforts being made.”
