Reps Subcommittee Rejects Petition to Revoke NIPCO’s Gas Distribution Licences

A subcommittee of the House of Representatives, tasked with investigating a petition concerning NIPCO Plc, has dismissed the petition filed by the Nigerian Energy Security Watch Group (NESWG). The petition sought an investigation, suspension, and possible cancellation of NIPCO’s gas distribution licences. This development was reported by THISDAYLIVE and Tribune Online. The reasons for the subcommittee’s decision remain unclear, as neither source provides detailed information on the committee’s rationale. It is uncertain whether the NESWG plans to appeal this decision or pursue other avenues to address their concerns.
