Nigeria’s electricity supply increased by 14.64 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2023 on a year-on-year basis.
This was disclosed by the National Bureau of Statistics’ latest electricity report.
The report said the country’s electricity supply surged to 6,432 gigawatt-hours in Q4 2023 from 5,732gwh in the previous quarter.
