Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa has said the efforts of President Muhammadu Buhari will be more appreciated when he leaves office in 2023.
The Nasarawa governor stated this on Tuesday while speaking with state house correspondents after a meeting with the president.
He commended the president for the Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano gas pipeline project.
Sule said: “I told the president that some of your efforts for the country will be more appreciated when you leave office,”
“Today, you are the architect of the Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano gas pipeline. Recently, Nasarawa State signed an MoU after our gas roundtable in the state capital Lafia, where the top management of NNPC were around.

“We discussed gas utilisation and we are bringing our own experience of what happened with the West African gas pipeline, where it was tapped from Sagamu into Ikeja and all the industries there are utilising gas.
“So, for a country like Nigeria that has over 200 trillion standard cubic feet of gas, to say that somebody is building a gas pipeline for the utilisation of gas, I don’t think that is a small thing. But a lot will not understand this until may be when the president leaves office and in future.
“When we begin to have LPG everywhere for cooking and LNG so that most of our vehicles will convert to gas rather than petrol, many cannot see now what is going to happen tomorrow and by that time, they will say who did this and they will be told it’s President Buhari and people will bless him.”
