In addition, six mobile CNG refuelling stations were launched in areas such as Shomolu (Fola Agoro), Alapere, Marina, Agege Bypass, Lakowe, and Odogunyan (Ikorodu).
The company said the existing CNG infrastructure in Lagos and Abuja can currently dispense over six million standard cubic feet of gas daily, with the capacity to serve up to 15,000 vehicles each day.
The move aligns with the federal government’s energy transition strategy, which includes increased reliance on natural gas as a cleaner fuel source for transportation and power generation.
