Introduction
Despite several reform efforts, Nigeria’s power sector continues to underperform. Weak governance, poor regulation, and lack of accountability have limited progress.
Strengthening Regulatory Independence
The electricity regulator needs greater independence to make fair and transparent decisions. This will help attract private investment and improve sector performance.
Improving Accountability in the Value Chain
From generation to distribution, accountability remains weak. Clear performance contracts and stronger monitoring will help improve efficiency across the power value chain.
Encouraging Private Sector Participation
Sustainable improvement in the power sector requires more private investment. Reforming governance to create a more attractive and stable environment will help achieve this.
