The minister, who received a rousing welcome from his political associates, supporters, family and friends, noted that his ministry was the most criticised sector and so important to the economic emancipation of Nigerians.

The minister said he would do everything possible to make sure the ministry, under his leadership, laid a good foundation for 24/7 power supply in Nigeria. “Within the next six months, there would be major addition to the national grid, in terms of hydropower plant, that is the Zungeru 700mw in Niger State that is about to be completed. This will be the biggest one in Sub-Sahara Africa when completed.“I will do everything to ensure that Zungeru power plant is inaugurated and subsequently add 700mw to the national grid,” he stated.

He expressed appreciation to President Bola Tinubu for counting him worthy for the position of minister, pledging to exceed the expectations of Nigerians in general.

Speaking on behalf of Oba Olalekan Balogun, the Olubadan of Ibadan land, Oba Abiodun Daisi – a member of Olubadan in Council, congratulated Mr Adelabu on the new appointment.
