The Federal Government has inaugurated the Ministerial Taskforce on Power as a way of achieving the fight for increased and sustainable power supply in the country.

The Minister of Power, Engr. Sale Mamman who inaugurated the Taskforce in Abuja, Thursday, said the setting up of the Taskforce became necessary as a result of the Federal Government’s plan to accelerate the pace of reforms in the sector and increase power output and availability in the short and long term.

Mamman pointed out that that the Ministerial Taskforce on Power is to serve as an Advisory Team on Policies and Innovative Technologies, adding that the Committee which has a two year tenure, is also saddled with the responsibility of developing, planning and driving forward the reform plan of the Federal Government in the sector.
