POWER REVOLUTION! FG BREAKS GROUND ON ULTRA-MODERN NATIONAL CONTROL CENTRE IN OSOGBO – SHETTIMA & MINISTER TEGBE DUMP 64-YEAR-OLD GRID HOUSE FOR WORLD-CLASS FACILITY!
GREATRIBUNETVNEWS–“THE Federal Government has begun construction of a new ultra-modern National Control Centre for the Nigerian Independent System Operator (NISO) in Osogbo, Osun State, replacing a 64-year-old facility that no longer meets the demands of running Nigeria’s grid. The groundbreaking was performed by Vice President Kashim Shettima, GCON supported by the Minister of Power Joseph Tegbe.”
SHETTIMA’S MESSAGE – POWER IS ECONOMY:
“In his remarks, the Vice President, ably represented by the Senior Special Assistant (Legal), Office of the Vice President, said reliable electricity is central to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.”
“He described power as the foundation of an economy that works, enabling manufacturers to plan production, small businesses to operate with confidence and hospitals and schools to function, as well as creating jobs and wider economic opportunity.”
The National Control Centre, he said, is where that reliability is protected, and Nigeria cannot run a modern, interconnected grid with the tools of yesterday.
