POWER – as a synonym of electricity – is a mystery in Nigeria. Even the Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, seems to be aware of this, as shown by one of his remarks at a recent forum in Abuja organised by NEXTIER, a power think tank. The forum, with the self-explanatory theme of “2016 Power Sector Review and 2017 Power Policy Direction,” brought the minister into a broad-based interaction around this theme with stakeholders in the power sector. Fashola made the remark, which gave rise to this piece, during his presentation that preceded the interactive session, revealing the plan of his ministry to “demystify power.” He said: “The ministry intends to demystify power so that when there is no power even the layman understands why.” This is not only an indirect acknowledgement of the mysteriousness of Nigerian power by the minster but also of the need to rid it of that arcane attribute.
