The Federal Government has disclosed that 15 states across the federation are set to benefit from its free distribution of gas cylinder project.
According to The PUNCH, this was disclosed by the Minister of Women Affairs, Pauline Tallen, in Abuja on Monday while giving the scorecard of her ministry at the 13th edition of the PMB 2015-2023.
Tallen stated that an additional 15 states will benefit from the gas cylinder distribution, which is in accordance with Buhari’s orders to provide each of the nation’s 774 Local Government Areas with 1000 gas cylinders to encourage the use of clean energy.
“We have not received any complaints from the states and LGA’s that was given but rather we have received testimonies and appreciations.
“ These cyclinders were given to local government rural women; 1,200 cylinders for the states that have received, we will reach out to the remaining states before the end of this administration because this is a promise by Mr President and he keeps to his promise,”she said.
