 The President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Sen. Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed the Executive Governor of Katsina State, His Excellency, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda PhD CON to the Board of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC). This appointment, approved by the National Economic Council (NEC), is part of a strategic move to strengthen the company's leadership and enhance its operational effectiveness.

I assure all Nigerians that we will work tirelessly to deliver on the Renewed Hope Mandate for our collective benefit."

This appointment underscores the Federal Government's commitment to addressing Nigeria's power challenges through a collaborative approach, leveraging the expertise and regional insights of state governors.

Governor Radda pledges to bring his wealth of experience and his understanding of the unique power needs of the North-West region to bear in his new role, working towards sustainable solutions for Nigeria's power sector.
