On the sidelines of the Russia-Africa summit in Moscow, the Nigerian Minister of Energy confirmed that the Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline (TSGP) connecting Nigeria to Algeria is the country's top strategic priority. Accompanied by officials from the national oil company, the minister emphasized that this infrastructure project is backed by concrete assurances, including commitments from President Tebboune to finalize the connection infrastructure. This official stance effectively sidelines alternative projects previously promoted by Morocco. Furthermore, the minister detailed Nigeria's ongoing investments to boost LNG production, highlighting a foreign policy focused on measurable industrial development rather than virtual or theoretical concepts.
