"Its annoying that most Nigerians are conversant with the biogas especially those that did physic and chemistry related courses in schools.
"Why not push a good project on this and save us from this outrageous gas price.
"To fill up 12.5kg cylinder of gas is 9500. Most altimes it doesn't last up to a month. We really need a way out for the hard way of life Nigerians are facing."
John Aduku said:
"Biodegradable energy. Not new, go to East Africa and see how it contributes to more than fifty percent of energy use in most homes there.
"Rural Nigeria could embrace this method too."

Nigerian invents stove that uses only water to cook
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian man had invented a stove that makes fire with only water.
67-year-old Hadi Usman's water-cooking stove is said not to require the use of gas or kerosene to generate fire.
PR Nigeria reports that the electronics technician's innovation was borne out of his desire to subsidize the cost of using gas and kerosene. The talented man who had previously assembled a radio transmitter and operated a community radio station wants relevant institutions to help him get his innovation patented.
