The presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi, has vowed to end national grid collapse should he become President in 2023.

Obi said the regular collapsing of the national grid was disturbing, vowing to ensure a strategic plan to progressively scale up power generation and the liberalisation of the transmission infrastructure in the country for its people to enjoy a stable power supply.

In a tweet on Wednesday, Obi said;

The report of yet another national grid collapse is very disturbing to me, and is a reminder of the long rescue and recovery journey ahead of us. Effective power generation, transmission and distribution remain a national security issue.

This also places power on the front burner of campaign and policy. Painfully, this latest episode is the 7th national grid collapse in 2022. As part of the Obi-Datti policy plan, we have put together a strategic plan to progressively scale up power generation, and the liberalisation of the transmission infrastructure in the country, to ensure that Nigerians enjoy adequate and stable power supply from 2023 onwards. Power is critical to the development and sustainability of all sectors of the national economy.

For us, power remains a top priority. Under my watch, national grid collapse will become a matter of history and a reference point for erstwhile administrations. -PO.”
