West African leaders approve Nigeria-Morocco gas pipeline

FREETOWN: West African leaders on Sunday signed an agreement approving the construction of a gas pipeline linking Nigeria to Morocco at a summit of regional bloc ECOWAS in Sierra Leone’s capital Freetown. The roughly 6,000-kilometer (3,700-mile) Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline (NMGP) will cross 13 countries along Africa’s Atlantic coast, carrying Nigerian gas to Morocco before connecting to the Maghreb-Europe pipeline. “We have already signed the West Africa-Morocco gas pipeline,” said ECOWAS chair Julius Maada Bio said.
