The Chief Executive Officer (CEO), NASENI Portland Gas, Folajimi Mohammed, has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the introduction of the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) initiative as an alternative to petrol and diesel saying it will make life more meaningful for Nigerians.
Mohammed, who was speaking with Tribune Online on the sideline of the recent launch of the Rideshare Conversion Incentive Program and the MyCNG app in Abuja said the initiative will not only set a new standard for service excellence in the CNG sector and accelerate the adoption of clean and efficient fuel but that the database app will be an invaluable resource for the entire CNG ecosystem as well as providing better support to customers and contributing greatly to the the broader CNG community.
He said the President with his support for CNG as a viable alternative to traditional fuels has displayed a clear and bold testament of his administration towards energy independence, economic growth and redefine the transportation sector of the country.
“I want to express our deepest gratitude to His Excellency, the President, for his visionary leadership and unwavering support for the Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) initiative. His commitment to promoting CNG as a viable alternative to traditional fuels is not only a testament to his dedication to our environment but also a bold step towards energy independence and economic growth.
“At Portland Gas, we are proud to be a part of this transformative journey. The Presidential CNG Initiative (PCNGi) has been instrumental in paving the way for innovations that will reshape the way we think about transportation and energy consumption in our country. This initiative is a beacon of progress, guiding us toward a future where cleaner energy is not just an option, but the norm. One of the key components of this initiative is the Ride Share CNG Conversion Incentive Program, a groundbreaking effort to encourage the adoption of CNG among ride-share drivers.
“This program is a game-changer, offering substantial incentives for drivers to convert their vehicles to CNG, thereby reducing emissions and lowering fuel costs. It is a win-win for both the environment and the economy, and we at Portland Gas are fully committed to supporting this initiative in every way possible.
“In line with the PCNGi, we are also excited to introduce the MyCNG App, a user-friendly platform designed to facilitate the transition to CNG. This app provides real-time information on CNG stations, fuel prices, and conversion centers, making it easier than ever for drivers to embrace this cleaner, more cost-effective fuel option.
“But our commitment doesn’t stop there. We understand that the success of the CNG initiative relies on efficient management and seamless service delivery. That’s why Portland Gas is proud to complement the PCNGi with the launch of a cutting-edge Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software.
“This software is designed to schedule and handle all auto conversion appointments, ensuring that every driver has a smooth and hassle-free experience when making the switch to CNG. Additionally, our CRM system will create and retain a comprehensive database of all conversions, enabling us to track progress, identify trends, and continuously improve our services.
“This database will be an invaluable resource, not just for Portland Gas, but for the entire CNG ecosystem. It will allow us to provide better support to our customers, optimize our operations and contribute valuable insights to the broader CNG community. We believe that this initiative will set a new standard for service excellence in the CNG sector and further accelerate the adoption of this clean, efficient fuel.
“Together, with the continued collaboration and innovation of all stakeholders, we can achieve a cleaner, greener and more prosperous future for our country. I would like to reiterate our gratitude to the President for his leadership and support. Portland Gas is honored to play a role in this national effort and we are committed to driving forward the CNG revolution in Nigeria,” Mohammed told Tribune Online.
