Minister of State Power, Mr Goddy Agba, has stated that his Ministry would provide solar power to six million homes within the next three months.
Making this known while revalidating his All Progressives Congress, (APC) membership, Mr Agba said President Muhammadu Buhari has given approval for the exercise to start and beneficiaries would be given the opportunity to pick homes to be powered
The Minister said apart from the solar power more electricity projects will be executed across the country during the year as he further used the occasion to call on youths to take advantage of the ongoing registration/revalidation exercise to join the party, stating that the registration exercise is an ample opportunity for more people from the state to key into the vision of the party.
“We’re here not because of me or anybody but our great party, the APC. From tomorrow, I’ll move to other parts of the state to see what’s happening there and encourage more people to join
“My message to you, my people is that politics is a game of numbers and if we must win elections, we need to grow our membership”
Highlighting some of his achievements, the Minister said Bekwarra had no light for almost six years but recently, electricity was restored to the area and also in Obudu, were the entire local government was in darkness for over six weeks but just within twenty-four hours of his intervention electricity was restored there.
