For decades, many homes and businesses have had to rely on generators , in part because debt cascades in the power and gas sector made sustained generation difficult. That may finally be shifting: the federal government has approved a payment of ₦185 billion to settle long-standing debts owed to gas producers — a move aimed at reviving gas supply and, by extension, stabilising electricity generation nationwide.  This payment will be implemented via a “royalty-offset arrangement,” as endorsed by the National Economic Council (NEC).  It’s part of a broader government strategy to overhaul the entire gas-to-power chain: the goal is to nearly double Nigeria’s gas output to 12 billion cubic feet per day by 2030.  Why does it matter? Because past delays in paying gas suppliers created cash-flow problems, discouraged investment, and limited gas ...
