FG deploys experts to Ogun over recurring gas emissions in schools

The Federal Government has sent a specialised technical team to Ogun State to investigate recurring subsurface gas emissions that have raised health concerns and disrupted classes at secondary schools in the Ijebu axis. Coordinated by the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC), the investigation aims to identify the geological source and recommend lasting solutions. Team leader Prosper Okonedo said preliminary indications point to possible natural geological processes rather than petroleum pipeline leaks, but further technical investigation is needed. NUPRC Chief Executive Oritsemeyawa Eyesan directed experts from the commission’s Lagos regional office to work with the state government.
