Tinubu Faults Jonathan’s Power Privatization for Nigeria’s Persistent Blackouts

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has pointed to decisions taken during the 2013 power privatization under former President Goodluck Jonathan as a key reason for Nigeria’s ongoing electricity failures. He argued that the improperly handled sale of power assets led to structural weaknesses in the sector. Instead of stable supply, many Nigerians still face regular blackouts. Despite these setbacks, Tinubu said his administration is focused on economic reforms and rebuilding critical infrastructure. He stressed the importance of unity and collective effort. The president expressed hope that sustained policy changes and public support will pave the way for reliable power and national growth.
