EconomyCan Nigeria cash in on Iran war?

Nigeria’s Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Ekperikpe Ekpo, says the US-Israel war on Iran has strained global gas markets and created an opening for Nigeria to expand production and attract investment. Plans include advancing the Nigeria-Morocco gas pipeline and LNG exports, while lowering domestic LPG prices, reducing gas flaring and moving 20 projects toward final investment decisions before 2030.
