The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, H.E. Timipre Sylva announced that the Federal Government will commence the opening of micro gas distribution channels across all local councils in the federation. This was done at the launch of the Nigerian Women for Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG). The Minister noted that LPG will be used as a clean alternative to firewood, which is largely utilized for cooking in rural parts of the country. Minister Sylva stated that the LPG project aims to empower rural women as they use a cleaner energy source for cooking, with 99 million women across households in all local councils being targeted over the next three years. The project will cut across 120 political units and 800 political wards across the 774 Local Government Areas in the federation.
