The Federal Government is set to increase electricity megawatts from 4000 to 6000 within the next three to six months to improve power supply.

The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu said this in Abuja, while meeting with the Heads of Power Agencies and other stakeholders in the industry.

He said 4000 megawatts is not acceptable, hinting that the government plans to increase the megawatts to a minimum of 6000 to 6500 within the next three to six months.

Adelabu said that he had visited several generation companies and confirmed that they had the installed capacity to generate the 6000 megawatts.
