Why national grid hasn’t collapsed in last 2 months – Power Minister, Adelabu

Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu has said that issues
surrounding the constant collapse of the National grid are being resolved.

The Minister spoke on Friday at the ongoing Ministerial
Sectorial Update put together by the Federal Government to offer the Ministers
the opportunity to present their scorecards to the Nigerian public after one of
the Tinubu administrations..

“You can see that for the past two months now the power grid
has not collapsed because we’re also on top of it and we’re trying our best to
ensure that we minimise the occurrence of this,” he said.

“But the permanent solution to grid collapse is to have
automated control of the frequency on the grid and the voltage. There’s an
application used for that, called Security Control and Data Acquisition, SCADA.

“We’ve been trying this thing for the last 10 to 12 years.
But just last week we had intervention from the World Bank.
