"Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...is in a tight spot in relation to gas, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the instability in our gas market and the threat of cutting off supply altogether," Matthew Baldwin said at a news conference in Abuja on Friday.
"So, we have launched the energy platform task force and the primary goal is to reach out to our reliable partners such as Nigeria to replace the gas from Russia with gas from reliable partners," he said.
The EU is Nigeria’s major LNG buyer, with 60% of all LNG shipments from the country going to Europe, accounting for 14% of the bloc’s gas imports.
"We want to expand what is currently a 14% share of total LNG imports from Nigeria, we want that to go up," Baldwin was quoted as saying.
