The Minister of Power Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, SAN, says the current epileptic power situation in the country is affecting virtually everybody.
According to the
Minister, his children are also facing the problem associated with poor power
supply.
The Minister while
speaking on Channels Television said, “It’s a very hot season of the year. Even
my children look at me and wonder. I see them sweating too, having heat rash
and they look at me like what are you doing about this thing.
“Let me be very clear,
this problem can be solved.
“It needs detailed and
methodical approach.
“First work to do is
to supply more gas because without gas, I am like a generator owner who can’t
get fuel, so I can’t power my plants.
“There are errors of
planning of yesterday but they are errors that can be corrected,” Fashola said,
pointing out that the best way to get out of the power problem the country is
facing is to supply more gas to the power plant.
