Atiku Urges States to Control Power and End Nigeria’s Blackout Crisis
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has voiced deep concerns over Nigeria’s ongoing power crisis, especially as regions in the Southeast, Northwest, and Northeast face complete blackouts, with no electricity for over three weeks.
Atiku’s statement highlights a policy shift he believes could transform Nigeria’s power landscape: removing the entire electricity value chain from the exclusive federal list, thus allowing states to generate, transmit, and distribute power independently.
He argues that if states had the autonomy to manage their electricity, local energy issues wouldn’t be paralyzed by national disputes or administrative delays from the capital.
Atiku has long advocated for a balanced energy mix in Nigeria, combining renewable resources like solar, hydro, wind, and biofuels with traditional sources like coal and gas.
Given Nigeria’s diverse resources, he suggests that an easy approach to power generation could address regional needs more effectively.
This strategy would not only improve energy access but could also boost local economies, attract investments, and create jobs.
One of his key ideas is for Nigeria to encourage private investors to develop green-field mini-grid transmission systems, which could then be integrated into a larger super-grid network over time.
The impact of Nigeria’s power issues is deeply felt, with industries unable to function, small businesses struggling to survive, and millions of residents dealing with daily disruptions.
For many, Atiku’s call to decentralize power distribution stands as a much-need edchange.
