According to him, power demand, among other things, was critical to learning and research, preparing the way for the development of the students.

The committee, which has Hon. Sunday Adepoju, a member of TETFund BoT as chairman, was given an initial two months to summit the preliminary report. It will, however, be part of the implementation team.

It would be recalled that the Federal Government had plans to provide power supply to tertiary institutions through the Rural Electrification Agency (REA). The REA aims to provide captive solar hybrid power plants to 15 federal tertiary institutions and two teaching hospitals. This initiative was part of the government’s efforts to increase electricity access to underserved Nigerians.

The lack of power supply has been a significant challenge for tertiary institutions in Nigeria, affecting the learning environment and academic activities. The provision of a reliable power supply is expected to improve the quality of education and research in these institutions.
