The National Economic Council (NEC) has resolved to reinforce the implementation of the National Electrification Strategy in a bid to end the collapse of the nation’s power grid.
This is just as Vice President Kashim Shettima, who is Chairman of NEC, told members of the Council that access to energy is a fundamental right and not a privilege because electricity is the oxygen of economic growth.
Accordingly, the Council has constituted a committee on National Electrification to help address the challenges in the power sector.
