President Bola Tinubu has pledged that Nigeria's electricity supply will improve in the coming days, addressing widespread power outages that have affected the country. He made the statement while speaking at the National Convention of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja on Friday, March 25, 2026.
The president's assurance comes as the national grid has suffered multiple collapses in recent weeks, leading to blackouts across the nation. The Transmission Company of Nigeria has reported ongoing challenges with gas supply to power generating plants.
Tinubu emphasized his administration's commitment to resolving the persistent issues in the power sector, which have long hampered economic activity and daily life. He did not provide specific technical details or a timeline for the expected improvements during his convention speech.
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has acknowledged the grid instability and is working with generation and distribution companies. Consumers continue to experience unreliable supply despite previous reforms and investments in the sector.
