Buhari To Address Gas Price Hike Soon -Timipre Sylva

The Minister of State for Petroleum, Timipre Sylva, has said that the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), is mindful and concerned about the increased price of gas; vowing to take action to address the situation, especially as the Yuletide draws near.

Sylva said this on Tuesday while addressing State House correspondents after a meeting with the President where he presented CEOs of two new agencies under his ministry: the Nigerian Upstream Regulatory Commission and the Nigerian Downstream and Midstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority at the Presidential Villa.
