Key Points:
1. Incident: Frequent grid collapses in Nigeria’s national power grid
2. Call to Action: Oyintiloye demands a Presidential investigation
3. Reasoning: Essential for business operations and economic growth
4. Consequences: Negatively impacting businesses across the country
Oyintiloye emphasized that Nigeria has the resources to maintain a functional grid, questioning the continued collapses. He advocates for an investigation to uncover root causes, provide lasting solutions and expose potential sabotage.
“I believe a Presidential investigation into this matter will uncover the root causes and provide lasting solutions,” Oyintiloye stated. “Nigeria is blessed with all the resources needed to keep the grid operational, so why do these collapses continue?”

He called for an end to the embarrassment, urging that sanity be restored to the power sector for the sake of the economy. Oyintiloye’s appeal comes amidst growing concerns over Nigeria’s power infrastructure and its impact on economic development.
The frequent grid collapses have led to widespread disruptions in business operations, resulting in significant economic losses. Oyintiloye’s call for a Presidential investigation aims to address this critical issue and ensure a stable power supply for Nigeria’s businesses and citizens.
