The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu has said that electricity is cheapest in Nigeria compared to other African countries
Adelabu disclosed this on Thursday when he received the Secretary of the Lottery Trust fund, Tosin Adeyanju at his office in Abuja.
According to Adelabu, Nigeria and the World in general grapple with two basic problems: Food and Energy security.
“All over the world today, we are faced with two basic issues and these are food and energy securities
“It is worth noting that the price of electricity is still the cheapest in Nigeria compared to even other African nations,” he said.
