Corruption in power sector responsible for incessant grid collapse – EFCC boss
Nigeria’s erratic power supply can be attributed to corruption within the power sector, the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ola Olukoyede has said.
Olukoyede noted that what the commission had uncovered during its investigations will shock Nigerians.
Olukoyede spoke when the House Committee on Anti-Corruption and Financial Crimes visited him in Abuja on Tuesday, saying contractors awarded projects to supply electrical equipment often opted for substandard materials.
He stressed that this practice was a major cause of frequent equipment failures, outages, and grid collapses.
