The Nigerian Senate Committee on Local Contents has expressed disappointment and frustration over the delay in the execution of the $2.8 billion Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano Gas Pipeline Project. During an interactive session with Brentex CPP Ltd., the local firm handling the project, the committee chaired by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan urged the company to speed up work on the $1.27 billion component of the project.
The committee tackled the management of Brentex CPP Ltd. over the $1.27 billion stations component of the contract, insisting that the 10th Senate would not accept excuses for the delay. However, the chairman of Brentex CPP Ltd., Sani Abubakar, attributed the delay to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd.'s (NNPCL) attempt to de-scope the $1.27 billion station component of the contract. He claimed that NNPCL had been in discussion with them for 18 months over the matter.
