Senate introduces bill to ban use of generators in Nigeria

The bill has been read for the first time at the Senate.

The Nigerian Senate on Wednesday, March 11, 2020, introduced a bill to ban the use of generators in the country.

The bill which was sponsored by Senator Bima Muhammadu Emagi (APC Niger South), passed its first reading on the floor of the red chamber.

If eventually signed into law, the bill dubbed 'Generating Set (Prohibition/Ban) Bill', will prohibit the usage of generating sets in the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Unarguably, the power situation in Nigeria is erratic.

Inadequate power supply has been a major challenge for millions of Nigerians for decades.
