The key to success will be an unwavering dedication to efficiency and collaboration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Adelabu said that the ministry would foster robust partnerships between the private and public sectors, working collectively to enhance the nation\u2019s economic and social well-being.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur focus will extend to aspects of life that truly matter: from households to small businesses, educational institutions to massive industrial productions, and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA significant goal is the universal metering of households and addressing the challenges faced by our national power grid.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will equally pay critical attention to the options of renewable and alternative energies. The world is indeed going in this direction, and Nigeria must not be left behind,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Adelabu also averred that the ministry would leverage the power of technology and the bursting energies of talented youths to achieve its desired objectives. According to him, this would be pursued by ensuring collaboration between the ministry\u2019s ICT apparatus and the emerging technological ideas of young Nigerians to accelerate the envisaged transformation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough this, we are convinced we will deliver services that match the speed and values that the 21st-century economy demands,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
