FG Promises Power Supply ‘Like Never Before’, Soon
The Federal Government through the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has said that it is working so hard to improve power supply in Nigeria.
Describing what is coming as a tip of the iceberg, Adelabu said all the foundational structural issues that have been for some years now, would all be fixed soon.
After observing Eid-el-Kabir prayers at the Agodi Prayer Ground, Ibadan, on Friday, the minister disclosed this while addressing journalists.
“Let me say that the biggest room in the world is the room for improvement. Rome was not built in a day. And for you to build a solid building, there must be a very solid and reliable foundation. The power sector had some serious foundational structural issues, which we have been able to correct with this administration.
“The little improvement that you have seen is just a tip of the iceberg. You still witness major improvement in power supply.
“President Tinubu assured that his major objective is to make sure that he electrifies every Nigerian home, household, businesses, institutions, and industries. And I can tell you that we are not relenting. What you have seen is just one and a half years.
“I resumed this job in September 2023. This is just the end of May, and you have seen a little. I promise you that within the next one year, you are going to see major improvement that will develop our industries, that will resuscitate our small and cottage businesses, that will bring happiness back to homes where everywhere is lit up and there will not be darkness,” he said.
