Governor Adeleke Represents South West on Ad Hoc Committee on National Electrification Plan

NEWS RELEASE

OSOGBO- 22/11/2024 – Osunstate.gov.ng

The National Economic Council at its meeting on Thursday 21st November 2024 reviewed the state of the nation’s electricity sector and resolved to engage subnational structures to address current challenges in the sector.

The meeting particularly sought to build on the devolution of the electricity sector and its movement into the concurrent legislative list which empowers state governments to regulate the sector in their respective areas.

The Council therefore set up an ad hoc committee to review actions in the sector by state governments and explore ways to ramp up activities through coordination from the NEC.

Governors from the South West unanimously nominated Governor Ademola Adeleke as the chairman representing the South West zone.

The full list of members of NEC’s Ad-hoc Committee on National Electrification:

  1. Governor of Cross Rivers State, Bassey Otu – Chairman, South-South
  2. Governor of Katsina State, Mallam Dikko Umaru Radda – Chairman, North-West
  3. Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya – Chairman, North-East
  4. Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke – Chairman, South-West
  5. Governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodinma – Chairman, South-East
  6. Governor of Plateau State, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang – Chairman, North-Central
  7. Hon. Minister of Finance, Wale Edun
  8. Hon. Minister of Budget and National Planning, Atiku Bagudu
  9. Special Adviser, NEC and Climate Change, Rukaiya El-Rufai
  10. Special Adviser, Power Minister, Hon. Bolaji Tunji
