The President boasted that Nigerians would begin to take power for granted in the next two years.
“The impasse between 100 per cent ownership of the power sector by government and 100 percent ownership by private sector will soon be over. In the next two years, Nigerians can take power sector for granted like it is obtainable in other countries.” he said.
