My colleague @AjuriNgelale has produced a fantastic report on the #AKKGasPipeline project. It showed tonight on @channelstv, and you can find on YouTube here:
"When Pres. Buhari came to power in 2015, he made domestic gas infra devpt a cardinal project. This project has been on drawing board since 2008,2009. He made it happen. What this project shows clearly is the dedication of PMB to local content & capacity." vanguardngr.com/2020/07/how-aj…

"It’s a signature project for Mr. President. Power will be stabilised. Industries will come up as a result of this project. Gas will be supplied to all parts of Nigeria. I’m confident this project will be delivered by Q1 2023, when we hope to put gas on this line." - @MKKyari
AKK:
51,200 steel pipes (40-inch diameter), stretching across 614km.
Guess how they're being transported to site: On the #ItakpeWarriRail Line, which the Buhari Administration completed in 2020, after 33 years of construction. (Nobody between 1999-2015 thought to complete it)
