The Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline project intends to supply gas to Morocco, 13 West African nations, and Europe, but experts have raised concerns about vulnerabilities based on its long timeline, funding issues, security, regional instability, and environmental and health impact.

A new gas-to-power project, dubbed a fossil fuel “bridge,” poses a challenge in a country that is especially vulnerable to climate change.
