The rapid rise in domestic Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) usage in Nigeria signifies a transformative shift towards cleaner energy. This abstract encapsulates a thorough analysis delving into the safety implications linked to this transition. Through meticulous exploration of LPG usage, safety practices, regulations, and stakeholder perspectives, the study aims to illuminate multifaceted safety dimensions in Nigeria. Employing mixed methods, including surveys and interviews, the research offers a holistic view of LPG safety dynamics. Quantitative data of 200 households across the six geo-political zones indicates increasing LPG adoption, highlighting gaps in safety awareness and compliance. Qualitative insights shed light on challenges faced by users, experts, and regulators, providing a nuanced outlook on safety concerns and potential solutions. Key findings underscore the role of safety awareness in shaping user practices and the need for robust regulations for consistent safety enforcement. Stakeholder input emphasizes collaboration against counterfeit equipment and standardized safety training. Recommendations include targeted awareness campaigns, stronger regulations, and industry-user partnerships to bolster LPG safety.  The research holds far-reaching implications for policies, industry practices, and public engagement. Amid Nigeria's pursuit of sustainable energy solutions, addressing safety implications of surging LPG usage becomes crucial. This abstract offers a glimpse into a comprehensive exploration aiming to contribute to a safer LPG landscape, harnessing cleaner energy benefits while prioritizing Nigerian households' well-being.
