According to Adelabu, the reforms have started yielding positive results, especially in the power sector as evidenced in improved power supply to households and businesses across the country.
He added: “The reforms, particularly in the Power sector, have started yielding positive results and those results will be consolidated upon to make life more meaningful for all Nigerians.
“Beyond the national grid alignment, renewable and alternative sources of electricity supply are being vigorously pursued, especially for our educational and health institutions.
“President Tinubu has restated the fact that electricity is a fundamental human right of all Nigerians and we at the Power Ministry are pursing this agenda with vigour and we promise to deliver on this, as directed by Mr President.
“The new year will herald a new dedication and commitment in this area and in all the power sector value chain.
“By preventing the acts of vandalism through our vigilance, we are also ensuring the protection of our grid from collapse and the gains achieved in the incremental addition of power to the grid as promised Nigerians.”
