Power Minister Tegbe has reassured citizens that the ongoing gains in electricity supply across Nigeria will continue, bringing reliable power to more households and businesses in the coming months. In a recent statement, the minister highlighted the significant progress recorded in the power sector, attributing it to deliberate investments in infrastructure, improved grid stability, and enhanced collaboration between the government and private sector operators. He emphasized that the administration remains committed to building on these achievements to ensure uninterrupted electricity access becomes a new normal for Nigerians.
According to Minister Tegbe, several key projects aimed at expanding generation capacity, upgrading transmission lines, and modernizing distribution networks are already yielding positive results. These efforts have led to a noticeable increase in the hours of electricity supply in many parts of the country.
The minister noted that the government is addressing legacy challenges such as vandalism, revenue leakages, and technical losses with renewed determination. He expressed confidence that sustained reforms and timely execution of ongoing initiatives will deliver even greater reliability, ultimately supporting economic growth, industrial revival, and improved quality of life for citizens.
The assurance comes at a time when many Nigerians are beginning to experience the benefits of sector reforms. Minister Tegbe called on stakeholders, including electricity distribution companies and consumers, to play their part in protecting infrastructure and ensuring prompt payment for services rendered. He reiterated that the journey toward stable and affordable power remains a top priority for the government, with measurable milestones already being tracked and additional interventions planned for the near future.
