Nigeria’s electricity sector operators have noted that collaborations and partnerships were needed to grow the industry, 10 years after it was partially privatized.
“We are at the point where we have realized that the public is better served by collaboration and cooperation amongst players and operators. “The power generators need the transmission company and the transmission company needs the distribution companies. For all to succeed, we need all the value chain working together”, he added.
Mr. Adeyeye explained that the organizers came up with the tournament as a way to bring together “operators, investors, government and all stakeholders in the electricity value chain to come together to harmonize and synergize, and create harmonics that can drive the power sector, especially the National Power Policy which is 24 hours supply of power to Nigerians”.
