Fayose: Give Nigerians electricity, they’ll have less time for procreation
📝 NigeriaNewsFeed Summary
Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has linked the lack of electricity in rural areas to increased population growth, suggesting that improved electricity access would reduce early bedtimes and promote recreational activities. Speaking during his inauguration as Chairman of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) governing board, Fayose emphasized that the absence of electricity limits entertainment options for rural residents, leading to increased procreation. He argued that with better electricity supply, people would engage in nightlife and outdoor activities rather than staying home. Fayose's comments were made in a video shared by ARISE News, highlighting the need for addressing electricity issues in underserved communities. The REA board, inaugurated by Minister of Power Joseph Tegbe, aims to expand electricity access across Nigeria.
