Description

Description

The Ajaokuta Steel Company, a long-dormant steel manufacturing complex in Kogi State, Nigeria, has been the subject of government pledges and investment efforts to revive its operations. A recent milestone includes a 20-year Gas Supply Agreement with the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to provide a guaranteed, uninterrupted energy source critical for the plant's operation. The project aims to manufacture specialized steel pipes for continental gas infrastructure projects, including the African-Atlantic Gas Pipeline and the Escravos-Lagos Pipeline System expansion. The revival requires a fresh capital injection of approximately USD 2 billion and demands a transparent, time-bound implementation roadmap with measurable milestones.
