Nigeria and Morocco have officially launched a joint company to drive the ambitious $25 billion gas pipeline project, a landmark deal that aims to strengthen energy cooperation between the two nations. The company will oversee construction and management of the pipeline, which is expected to link Nigeria’s gas reserves to Morocco and Europe.
According to officials, the project will boost economic growth, regional integration, and energy security, while also creating new jobs and investment opportunities across West Africa. It is seen as a major step in turning Nigeria’s vast gas resources into revenue and positioning Morocco as a key energy hub.
The development has attracted international attention, with experts noting that the project could reshape Africa’s energy landscape. Once completed, the pipeline is expected to supply gas to several West African countries before connecting to Europe.
