\u00a0Lagos -The Nigerian Liquified Petroleum Gas Association (NLPGA), Thursday, urged the Federal Government to establish an agency to oversee the development and sustenance of the gas sector.<\/p>\n

Alhaji Auwulu Ilu, president of the association, said\u00a0in Lagos that a lack of well-articulated plan by the government had denied the sector the required attention.<\/p>\n

Ilu urged the government to focus on Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) sector, make adequate policies and tangible investment to replace the use of kerosene and firewood for cooking.<\/p>\n

He said the government should consider providing affordable and accessible energy sources for Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe number one challenge is a lack of appropriate government agency that is responsible for overseeing the growth of gas consumption.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is none, unlike between 2003 and 2007 when we have the presidential steering committee, which was responsible for making efforts to grow the LPG sector.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOnly those in the private sector are trying to boost the sector and you know the start-up capital for LPG is quite expensive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is only government that can make steps that will yield tangible results in the sector,\u2019\u2019 Ilu said.<\/p>\n
