The Presidency has said that power generation in Nigeria has improved under President Bola Tinubu’s administration, despite persistent challenges in the electricity sector.
This is even as it dismissed a comment by presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, about the country’s poor electricity generation.

Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, stated this while fielding questions on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme on Tuesday.

Onanuga, however, noted that inadequate gas supply remains a major obstacle
