Minister of Power Adelabu Sets Ambitious Goal: 20,000 Megawatts by 2026

The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has made a bold pledge on behalf of the Federal Government to achieve a significant increase in power generation capacity within the next few years. Despite the ongoing challenges in Nigeria’s power sector, Adelabu expressed confidence that the administration of President Bola Tinubu would reach the ambitious target of 20,000 megawatts (MW) of power generation by the year 2026.

Speaking at this year’s Nigeria Energy Summit in Lagos, Adelabu outlined his vision and determination to address the nation’s power supply issues. He emphasized that he had thoroughly assessed the challenges and discovered that the solutions were not as complex as commonly perceived.

“As a politician and Minister of Power, I also have a limited amount of time to spend, and I must make impacts. I am determined to make impacts. I have diagnosed the issues to a large extent, and I’ve found out that the solutions are not as difficult as we all believe,” Adelabu stated.
