FG Ensures Reliable Electricity for Rural Communities with Renewable Energy

The Federal Government reiterates its dedication to providing reliable electricity to rural communities to enhance access, create jobs, and boost economic growth through renewable energy. The Rural Electrification Agency (REA) Managing Director, Abba Abubakar Aliyu, announced the commencement of training in renewable energy technology for 100 students at the University of Maiduguri.

The program aligns with President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda to improve livelihoods and reduce fossil fuel dependency. The training aims to develop skilled manpower to support Nigeria's ambition to become a renewable energy hub in Africa.
