After the FEC meeting, the Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, shared that the sanctioned projects represent an intentional move towards providing sustainable energy. He said the initiative seeks to lessen reliance on the national grid and foster growth, innovation, and inclusiveness.
He said, “This is a major milestone in the transformation of our tertiary education infrastructure.
“It will significantly lower energy costs, reduce reliance on diesel generators, and provide a clean, stable source of power to support learning, research, and healthcare delivery.”
The Minister announced the institutions that will benefit from this new phase, which are as follows:
University of Lagos (UNILAG), Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), University of Ibadan (UI), University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, and Federal University, Wukari (Taraba State).
