The Federal Executive Council, under president Tinubu chairmanship , mandates all government Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) to exclusively procure vehicles and generators fueled by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).

This directive, aimed at enhancing energy security, promoting efficiency, and reducing fuel costs, underscores the government's commitment to sustainable energy practices.

The move aligns with Nigeria's broader efforts towards cleaner energy solutions, as CNG-powered vehicles are recognized for their lower emissions and affordability. MDAs to commence the conversion of existing petrol or diesel-powered vehicles and generators to CNG.

In line with this directive, Nigeria Customs Service and the Nigerian Shippers' Council request for petrol vehicles to be reconsidered, favouring CNG or solar alternatives. FCT administration's petrol generator proposal approved, pending CNG/Solar review.

President Tinubu reiterated the government's determination to drive CNG adoption across the country, emphasizing the role of public officials in spearheading the transition to a prosperous, sustainable future.

The decision follows the recent announcement of plans to deploy 2,700 CNG-powered buses and tricycles to reduce transportation costs.

This initiative builds on the Presidential CNG Initiative launched in October 2023, which aims to deliver cheaper, safer, and more environmentally friendly energy solutions, particularly for mass transit.

To support the transition, the Federal Government has allocated funds for the purchase of CNG vehicles, electric buses, and conversion kits, as well as the development of refilling and charging infrastructure nationwide.

The initial rollout includes hundreds of CNG buses and tricycles, with further phases planned to expand the adoption of renewable energy sources such as solar panels and lithium batteries.

By prioritizing the transition to CNG and renewable energy, the government with aims to ease the burden of high fuel costs on the populace & show readiness to embrace sustainable energy solutions and attract investment in the sector.

Why the news about the first oil production in Akwa Ibom is important and relevant to AFNIS:
1. Energy Backbone: Oil serves as the backbone of Nigeria’s energy sector, powering essential industries, transportation networks, and electricity generation. While efforts to diversify the energy mix are underway, oil remains the primary source of energy, meeting the country’s current energy demands.
2. Development Funding: Revenues from oil production play a pivotal role in funding critical national development initiatives, including infrastructure projects, healthcare, education, and poverty alleviation programs. These funds are essential for advancing socio-economic progress and improving the quality of life for Nigerians.
3. Investment and Innovation: The oil industry drives investment and technological innovation, fostering the development of advanced extraction techniques, environmental stewardship practices, and efficiency improvements. These advancements enhance the sustainability and competitiveness of Nigeria’s oil sector while supporting broader national development goals.
4. Transition Catalyst: Oil production can serve as a catalyst for transitioning towards a more sustainable energy future. By strategically managing oil resources and reinvesting revenues into renewable energy projects, Nigeria can accelerate its transition to cleaner energy sources while maximizing the benefits of its oil wealth.
At the upcoming AFNIS 2024, we have an exciting panel titled “Financing the Transition: Effective Utilization of Natural Resources Revenues” which highlights the importance of oil production for nations like Nigeria. Join the discourse visit www.afnisummit.com for more information

Africa's Breadbasket at Risk: $13 Billion Washed Away. Erratic rainfall cripples African agriculture, causing a staggering $13 billion loss annually. Can we afford to gamble with food security?
Imagine entire harvests withering under the scorching sun. Rainfed agriculture is a dangerous gamble for millions of African farmers.

Despite fertile lands, Africa loses billions of dollars to post-harvest losses due to inadequate irrigation. Harvested dreams turn to dust without reliable water sources.
60% of Africa's cultivated land relies on unpredictable rainfall. This isn't just about crops; it's about the future of millions. Imagine families going hungry, children missing meals, and communities devastated. The human cost of unreliable rainfall is heartbreaking.

Every year, inadequate irrigation costs Nigeria N3.5 trillion. Wouldn't it be smarter to invest in a sustainable solution? The encroaching Sahara Desert threatens agricultural livelihoods in Northern Nigeria.
Solar Irrigation offers a lifeline. Abundant sunshine can be Africa's salvation.
Solar irrigation offers a clean, sustainable way to water crops and transform agricultural fortunes. Imagine farmers taking control of their destinies, no longer slaves to the whims of the weather. Solar irrigation puts the power in their hands.
By connecting stakeholders across sectors, AFNIS paves the way for partnerships and financing to make solar irrigation a reality for all.

This year’s AFNIS summit will explore new ways African states can capitalize on its vast resources and transform their economies. Supported and endorsed by the 5 ministries that manage Nigeria’s resources, AFNIS is the first summit of its kind that brings together the collective minds of key decision makers in Africa’s natural resources sectors to discover cross-sector solutions to grow and transform their economies. This year’s summit is in Abuja, from 16th -18th July 2024.
