NGThe Nigerian Academy of Engineering (NAE) has endorsed ongoing power sector reforms and urged the federal government to implement engineering-focused solutions to address critical infrastructure deficiencies in Nigeria, such as electricity supply, climate resilience, and urban sanitation. During a press briefing, NAE President Rahamon Bello highlighted the academy's efforts in providing technical expertise through policy papers and reviews of infrastructure failures, including the 2024 collapse of the Alau Dam in Borno State. The NAE supports the government's financial reforms for the power sector, including specialized bonds to resolve gas supply debts and expand grid capacity to 25,000 megawatts. Additionally, the academy expressed concerns about inadequate urban wastewater treatment, emphasizing the need for improved sanitation infrastructure to protect public health and the environment. The NAE also participated in climate change discussions with international figures like UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed.
