Presidential Compressed Natural Gas Initiative (PCNGi) has commenced a transport fare drop programme across the country, starting with Abuja, as it ramped up the adoption of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) as a cleaner, more affordable alternative to fuel.

Representatives of the PCNGi signed an MOU with the National Union of Road Transport Workers covering the Abuja to Itakpe Station—Ajaokuta Train Station—Adavi route to convert fleet vehicles to CNG in return for a 30-40% fare reduction.

In a statement by the programme director of PCNGi, Michael Oluwagbemi, the programme will encourage NURTW members in Abuja to convert their vehicles to CNG in exchange for a fare reduction.

He said yesterday that the PCNGi would continue its nationwide commercial incentive programme for commercial cars on open days, expanding to 38 centres in Kaduna, Abuja, Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Delta and Edo states.

The PCNGi will sign an agreement with the Nigeria Police Trust Fund (NPTF) on Monday, September 30 to operationalise the Nigerian Police CNG Conversion Programme and train cadets to manage the strategic conversion centres the NPTF is investing in.
