I’m right here to work along with all of you. I listened fastidiously when a few of you launched yourselves with varied titles working within the ministry of energy. I need these titles to be translated to manufacturing of energy to Nigerians from era, transmission to distribution. That’s when our titles will make extra which means.

In any other case, time would come after we can be ashamed to say our names with these titles. So, I wish to ask everybody from the everlasting secretary all the way down to the smallest on the ladder by rank in any a part of the ministry of energy to be devoted and dedicated to the duty forward.

I’m not {an electrical} engineer or having something to do with energy prior to now however I’m an engineer and I do know when one thing goes unsuitable I’ll detect it. I cannot enable it and I’ll strive my greatest to make amends, along with you or with out you, as a result of that’s my mandate, to make sure that we succeed.

Don’t take a look at me because the minister of energy that I’ve come to make magic. No, I’m not a magician. I’m coming so as to add worth to what you may have already been doing. So allow us to work collectively in honesty and full dedication.”he mentioned
