Civil society organisations and members of the Nigerian public have called for the immediate resignation of Joseph Tegbe, the Minister of Power, citing persistent electricity outages across the country.
The criticism stems from what critics describe as a continuing failure to resolve widespread power supply issues, placing significant pressure on the federal government to address the sector's chronic instability.
While the source material does not specify the exact date of these calls or the names of the individual organisations involved, the demand for the minister's departure highlights growing frustration among Nigerians regarding the reliability of the national grid.
Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, has long struggled with inconsistent power distribution, a challenge that continues to impact both residential consumers and industrial operations.
The Minister of Power has not yet responded to these specific calls for resignation in the available reporting.
