Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo has said that the current lack of electricity in the country is impeding the nation’s developmental prospects.

Speaking on the state of Nigeria’s power supply, Nebo said the current power situation with the country’s growing population called for urgent reinforcement to overturn the looming threat to Nigeria’s future.

He said the recent disqualification of some students by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board over deficiencies in Information and Communication Technology would not have occurred if there was adequate electricity supply to rural dwellers.
The minister explained that adequate supply of power would have helped to expose the affected students to the use of computers and information technology. 
Nebo, however, expressed the Federal Government’s resolve to eradicate inadequate power supply through sub-regional collaborations that would guarantee an efficient transmission network super-power-grid across Africa.
