The Authority said despite its difficulty, nuclear power has specific attractions for Nigeria, adding that it will lead to a decline in the domestic demand for petroleum use in powering generators and increase foreign exchange earnings from the oil industry.

 

The director-general of the NNRA and chairperson of the Bureau of the African Commission on Nuclear Energy (AFCONE) Dr. Yau Idris Usman disclosed this during a CSO roundtable and media brief organised by Integrity Advocacy Development Initiative in collaboration with NNRA.
