By 2030, we aim to eliminate kerosene lighting – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has announced that by 2023 the Federal Government aims to eliminate Kerosene consumption

Buhari made the pronouncement in Abuja at the opening ceremony of the 15th Annual Banking and Finance Conference organised by the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN).

The President who was represented by Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning Mrs Zainab Ahmed noted that the plan is to significantly reduce greenhouse emissions from Nigeria

“To tackle this issue, the government has set plans in motion to significantly reduce greenhouse emissions from Nigeria. More specifically, by 2030, we aim to eliminate kerosene lighting as well as short-lived pollutants in the oil and gas sector,” he said.

On the raging inflation across the globe, he attributed the scary inflation figures across the world to fast-rising consumer demand in a world that was yet to fully recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, and is now facing the Russia-Ukraine war
