Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai has offered a solution to the problem of erratic power supply in the country.
According to El-Rufai, the Power Ministry has to take drastic steps to address it policy drive, and perform a proper restructuring of NERC because it has failed.
“One of the reasons it has failed in my opinion is because of the kind of people that were appointed to be the regulators of the NERC”, he said.
He said he took extra steps to ensure that NERC had the proper foundation when he was at the Bureau for Public Enterprise (BPE).
“But unfortunately those that came after us politicized the appointment and put people that lack the capacity.
The governor said the reforms has failed and “we are back to where we were in 2001 and 2002 when were generating the same amount of electricity. We did not attract any foreign investment to the sector because the regulatory frame work is not working and lacks credibility.
