Electricity generation rose to 4,300MW from 3,951MW — FG

The Federal Government has announced an increase in Nigeria’s electricity generation, rising from 3,951 megawatts (MW) to 4,300MW between March 28 and April 10.
Officials said the improvement reflects ongoing efforts to stabilise the power sector and enhance electricity supply across the country.
According to the government, measures taken to address operational challenges within the generation and transmission segments contributed to the increase in output.
The development is part of broader reforms aimed at improving power availability, reducing outages and strengthening the overall energy value chain.
However, stakeholders note that while the increase is a positive step, sustained improvements and consistent distribution remain key to ensuring that consumers fully benefit.
Observers say continued investment, maintenance and policy consistency will be crucial in achieving long-term stability in Nigeria’s power sector.
