The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, has assured Nigerians of a stable power supply throughout the holy month of Ramadan.
In a statement, Adelabu acknowledged the challenges faced by Nigerians regarding electricity and recognized the increased energy consumption required during Ramadan.
The Minister emphasized that the Federal Ministry of Power is working tirelessly to ensure a stable and reliable power supply throughout the month and beyond. He noted that the government is committed to addressing the issues of grid collapses, improving power infrastructure, and expanding access to electricity for all Nigerians.
Adelabu urged Muslims to use electricity responsibly and conserve energy by taking simple actions such as turning off unnecessary lights, using energy-efficient appliances, and unplugging devices when not in use. He emphasized that these actions would not only contribute to the stability of the power supply but also demonstrate a commitment to environmental sustainability, in line with Islamic principles.
The Minister reminded Muslims that Ramadan is a period of spiritual reflection, self-discipline, and devotion. He encouraged Muslims to dedicate time to reciting and contemplating the Qur’an, engaging in acts of charity, and promoting unity and harmony among all Nigerians.
Adelabu’s promise of a stable power supply during Ramadan is a welcome development, and Nigerians will be watching to see if the government can deliver on this promise. The Minister’s call for energy conservation and responsible use of electricity is also timely, as it highlights the importance of sustainability and environmental stewardship.
As Nigerians observe the holy month of Ramadan, the government’s commitment to providing a stable power supply and promoting energy conservation will be crucial in ensuring a comfortable and dignified observance of the fasting period.
