You Will Soon Enjoy 24/7 Uninterrupted Power Supply – Minister, Adelabu Tells Nigerians

 

Nigeria' Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu has assured Nigerians that they will soon start enjoying 24 hour light.

 

Adelabu stated this on Thursday in Abuja while inaugurating two blocks housing five training workshops and a 104-room hostel at the National Power Training Institute of Nigeria (NAPTIN).

 

Adelabu described the projects as a milestone for both the institute and the sector, stressing that President Bola Tinubu’s administration was walking the talk and converting vision into action.

 

“In no time, we are going to witness a country where there is 24/7 uninterrupted power supply. This is possible and we have certainly seen the signs,” he said.

 

The minister noted that recent improvements had led to the highest power generation and transmission in Nigeria’s history, attributing this to the government’s renewed efforts.

 

He added that the government was deliberately lighting up universities, teaching hospitals, primary health centres, and public institutions, recognising electricity as the backbone of economic transformation.

 

“We have what it takes to start manufacturing our own meters, cables, transformers, transmission transformers and batteries. We have the brain. We have the people. We must be self-reliant and sustainable, and we are very close to achieving this,” Adelabu said.
