Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu has warned saboteurs working against the improvement of power supply through vandalisation to desist from the act or face the wrath of the law.
He disclosed this while conducting a working tour of power facilities in Oyo state.
The minister’s working visit to Oyo State is part of his nationwide tour of Power facilities in the country.
His first point of visit was the 46year old Ayede transmission substation in Ibadan to assess the situation of things and identify areas where upgrade is needed.
For the minister, he advised that all hands must be on deck to serve Nigerians better through improved power transmission.
He warned saboteurs in the system to desist as they would be severely dealt with.
