    Tinubu Nominates Ramat As NERC Chairman

    President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has nominated Engr. Abdullahi Garba Ramat as the new Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), signaling a renewed push for leadership reform in the country’s power sector.

    This was contained in a statement issued on Thursday by Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Mr Bayo Onanuga.

    Engr. Ramat, 39, a certified electrical engineer and administrator with a PhD in Strategic Management, replaces Sanusi Garba as chairman.

    His nomination underscores the administration’s intention to inject youthful expertise and strategic oversight into one of Nigeria’s most critical regulatory institutions.

    In addition to Engr. Ramat, the President also submitted two other nominations for the NERC board: Mr. Abubakar Yusuf as Commissioner for Consumer Affairs and Dr. Fouad Olayinka Animashun as Commissioner for Finance and Management Services.

    All nominations are subject to confirmation by the Senate.

    However, to forestall a leadership vacuum in the commission, President Tinubu has directed that Engr. Ramat immediately assume office in an acting capacity, pending his screening and confirmation by the National Assembly as provided by law.

    In announcing the nominations, President Tinubu urged the appointees to bring their expertise to bear in driving reforms that align with the administration’s vision for an efficient and sustainable power sector.

    The appointments mark the latest in a series of strategic changes by the Tinubu administration aimed at revitalizing Nigeria’s energy framework and accelerating progress toward universal electricity access.
