Power supply will improve before year-end, minister assures Nigerians

The Nigerian Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, assured citizens that electricity supply will improve significantly before the end of 2026. This announcement came during the media launch of the Africa Mini-Grid Programme (AMP) Nigeria Pilot Project, which was launched by the Rural Electrification Agency (REA), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and the Global Environment Facility (GEF). The project has already installed 23 mini-grids across 15 states, providing electricity to approximately 20,000 households and over 50,000 people. These mini-grids support economic activities, particularly in agriculture, and aim to enhance access to electricity in underserved areas. Tegbe emphasized the government's commitment to addressing long-standing issues in the power sector, highlighting efforts to rehabilitate the national grid and expand renewable energy solutions. He stressed that renewable energy, such as solar technology, is an essential part of Nigeria's energy strategy rather than a substitute for traditional power generation.
