What happened
Joint committees have been established between the federal government and the Lagos State Government to drive interventions concerning electricity supply in Lagos. The initiative aims to achieve 24-hour electricity supply in the state, which serves as a pilot for similar efforts in other major energy corridors across Nigeria. The agreement was reached during the Ministerial Implementation Retreat on the Clean Lagos Electricity Market (CLEM).
