Stop cursing on electric workers, minister begs Nigerians

Adebayo Adelabu, the minister of power, has pleaded with Nigerians not to curse at the people who provide energy.

As an alternative, he asked citizens to back them.

The Central Council of Ibadan Indigenes is located in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, where he made this appeal on Friday.

Adelabu stated that his plan for the ministry was to take use of the Nigerian Electricity Act of 2023, which created new opportunities for power provision and promoted cooperation between the federal government, states, and local governments.

The minister promised to strengthen the relationships between the public and private sectors and build on the foundation already established by his predecessors as he took charge of the ministry.

Electricity generation in Nigeria has been debundled according to the Electricity Act of 2023. In order to hasten the passage of the electrical law in their states, I will push all state governors.

And I want to guarantee that the Ikere Gorge dam produces 20 KVA of hydroelectricity. In order to access the water resources of the Ogun River basin, the Ogun-Osun River Basin Development Authority built the Ikere Gorge Dam, one of its key dams.

Niyi Ajewole, President-General of the CCII, had earlier counseled the minister to work with Governor Seyi Makinde to advance Ibadanland specifically and the state as a whole.
