The House of Representatives on Monday underscored the need for the review of Nigeria’s energy policy as well as enforcement of the zero gas flaring policy in the country.
In his keynote address at the one-day public hearing on the ‘Need to end gas flaring in Nigeria and harness associated gas’, held at the instance of the joint House Committee on Gas Resources, Environment and Climate Change, the Speaker, Hon.
