Some experts have blame policy inconsistency for the lingering problems in the power sector.
The experts told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos on Friday that there too many bodies controlling the power sector.
Mr Adekunle Makinde, President, Nigerian Institution of Electrical Electronics Engineer (NIEEE) , said that there about six different bodies controlling the sector.
“As long as we have different bodies controlling a single sector, the issue of inconsistency will persist.
“For the power sector alone, we have the ministry of power, presidential task force on power, bureau of public enterprises, and Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission.
“There is also the Senate Committee on Power sector and House of Representative Committee of Power Sector.
“These are too many bodies; dual responsibilities do not work well, “he said.
Makinde said that government should intensify efforts at building and maintaining the power plants to be in position to generate 10,000 megawatts.
