Sub-Saharan Africa remains the most energy-deprived region in the world, with nearly 600 million people lacking access to electricity. Nigeria, the continent’s largest economy, faces severe energy gaps, with the average citizen receiving just four hours of power each day. Addressing this challenge is crucial for economic growth across sectors like education, healthcare, and job creation — and Nigeria's success could offer a blueprint for the continent.
Join M-RCBG Senior Fellow George Nwangwu, a leading voice in energy policy and infrastructure finance, as he explores the political, financial, and technical hurdles in Nigeria’s electricity sector. Discover success stories, explore reform strategies, and uncover lessons that can shape energy solutions across Africa.
