11Plc to rival NNPC

The government is strongly promoting CNG as an alternative to petrol after the subsidy was removed from PMS by President Tinubu in 2023.
11Plc’s push into the sector positions it to rival the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), which has launched more stations in Nigeria.
FG to launch 175 new CNG filling stations
Legit.ng earlier reported that the Federal Government, through the Presidential Compressed Natural Gas Initiative (PCNGI), announced plans to complete about 175 new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) stations within the next 12 to 18 months.
Michael Oluwagbemi, the PCNGI programme coordinator, made this known in a video shared on the PCNGI’s X account.
Oluwagbemi explained that the goal is to make CNG more available and reduce the difficulty Nigerians face when trying to refuel.
