He assured of the payment of the outstanding balance within six months through  financial instruments such as promissory notes adding that the government is committed to resolving this debt to stabilize the sector and prevent further crisis.


Adelabu stated that President Bola Tinubu would meet with GenCos leadership to fast-track the process.  


The Minister acknowledged the government’s role in the sector’s struggles, pledging to not only clear the debt but also implement reforms to ease operational bottlenecks just as he emphasized the need for full liberalization of the power sector.
