In a bid to boost energy security, the Federal Government has signed the International Energy Charter to provide more jobs and reduce poverty in Nigeria.

The government consequently launched a National Energy Summit, a framework to monitor collaboration with the Charter which is not a legally-binding obligation to strengthen international energy co-operation between countries.

With this, Nigeria has joined 10 other African countries and 80 signatories globally to underpin a sustainable path towards energy efficiency, technology transfer, as well as sustainable and clean energy.
