The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has assured Nigerians that the federal government is taking concrete steps to ensure citizens enjoy more reliable and sustainable electricity.
According to him, Nigerians will soon benefit from the reforms initiated by President Bola Tinubu in the electricity sector.
The Minister made the declaration in his Eid-el-Fitri (Sallah) message to Nigerians titled “Let Our Sacrifices Strengthen National Progress.”
The submission comes amidst worrying concerns about an imminent blackout in Nigeria as gas suppliers have reduced the amount they supply to thermal power plants across the country, leading to reduced electricity supply to homes and businesses.
However, Adelabu said the government reforms are gradually yielding results and gradual improvements, which will significantly enhance power supply in the near future.
“Concrete measures are being implemented to ensure more reliable and sustainable electricity for homes, businesses, and industries. The reforms initiated by President Tinubu are beginning to take root and Nigerians will soon witness the full benefits.
“As we celebrate, we take pride in the strides being made under President Tinubu’s leadership, including his recent engagements in the United Kingdom, which promise significant gains in investment, bilateral relations and economic cooperation.
“These milestones underscore a new direction for our nation. I urge all Nigerians to continue supporting these efforts so that the gains can be consolidated for the benefit of all… through unwavering dedication to its progress and alignment with the policies and programmes of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The challenges we face today are, without doubt, the building blocks of a more prosperous tomorrow,” he said.
