“The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola, will attend this dialogue session as the special guest of honour.

“It will be a platform for the minister to intimate Nigerians about ongoing projects and efforts of government at solving the energy/power debacle.

“The forum will enable stakeholders to deliberate on key aspects of the privatisation of the power sector, the role of distribution companies, generation companies, government and all categories of consumers in achieving a successful reform in the sector,” it said said.
