“I thank the Daily Independent Newspapers because this Award is a reminder and confirmation that one’s efforts and contributions towards national development are being recognized.

“This Award serves as a spur to do more in the interest of our nation and humanity and our company remains committed towards the growth and expansion of the national gas productivity in the quest to achieve the desired capacity for export as well as ensure availability and affordability for the domestic market,” Dr. Rone said.

Stating that his company has moved to the Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Installation and Commissioning (EPCIC) stage after obtaining all necessary approvals, Dr. Rone added that the required international standards were being adhered to at all levels of the project.

The UTM boss commended President Bola Tinubu for ensuring that UTM continues to receive the necessary government backing to guarantee the success of the project.

“More importantly, I appreciate and commend President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for encouraging private investment in developing the nation’s gas resources. President Tinubu’s commitment towards the Decade of Gas policy has massively enhanced private sectors participation by boosting investors’ confidence in the gas industry,” he said.

The UTM MD urged private entrepreneurs in the country to take more advantage of the policies of the current administration towards investments in critical sectors of the economy.
