The Federal Government said it is set to unveil plans to enable universities and teaching hospitals to generate their own electricity to provide a more sustainable and reliable power supply for the institutions.
The Executive Director of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA), Ayo Adegboyega, revealed this exciting news during an interview with reporters at the W.O. Lawal praying ground in Ibadan.
He said the project is one of the numerous projects being embarked upon by his agency to solve the age-long epileptic power supply nationwide.
According to him, “There are lots of projects in the pipeline which include the provision of mini-grids and solar panel power for households across the country.
“Also, there are projects along unbundling the national grids with the movement of the Federal universities and University Teaching Hospitals into the captured power.
“This will enhance the generation of their own power supply. This will be actualized in the next few months.
“President Bola Tinubu will commission one of such projects at the University of Abuja in the next couple of weeks.
“There are lots of projects in the pipeline that will enhance an uninterrupted power supply that Nigerians will start to enjoy soon.
“It is better to dig deeper into the root causes of epileptic power supply than to scratch the surface.”
