Foundation for Economic Advocacy Advancement (FFEAA) has decried a recent press release by the Coalition of West African Investigative Journalists (COWAFIJ) against the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) under Engr Salihijo Ahmad.

 FFEAA, in a statement signed by its national publicity officer, Mr Dolapo Olanrewaju described the entire press conference by COWAFIJ as an attempt at ridiculing the giant strides of REA.

The foundation described COWAFIJ as an arm of the opposition committed to making mockery of the advancement of the federal government in the power sector and reminded the naysayers of the intensification of World Bank in providing alternative sources of power for rural electrification in Nigeria, through an additional commitment of $750million grant to Nigeria.

It noted that the World Bank’s director of strategy and operations for Western Central African Region, Elizabeth Huybens, had announced the plan of the bank to further strengthen Nigeria’s rural electrification success by an additional $750 million, during her visit to inspect the 60KwP Mini-Grid Project in Kilankwa Community in Abuja.

FFEAA maintained that the successes of Nigeria’s Rural Electrification drive have been hinged on the leadership of Engr Ahmad Salihijo, who has constantly pursued the vision and goal of the REA through an unalloyed hunger to fulfill the dreams of millions of Nigerians who desire to be connected to electricity no matter their location in Nigeria.

The statement reads in part: “Thousands of grids have been deployed in small communities across Nigeria, thereby optimizing the use of the electricity generated to expand productive activities.

“Today, millions of kids can study at night, because of access to electricity. There can be no modern life without electricity and it is hard to think about reducing poverty without access to electricity.”
