Govt. Plans To
Set Up Power Plant For Electricity.
Benue State Government has planned to establish a power plant
towards generating electricity to boost socio-economic development across
communities in the state.
Raymond Asemakaha, the managing director of Benue Investment and
Property Company, disclosed this after the Federal Government’s recent assent
to a bill, allowing all state governments to own and manage their electricity
companies.
Speaking during a meeting with a delegation of Remedy Earth at
BIPC corporate headquarters in Makurdi, Asemakaha asked the electricity company
to set up a pilot plant in Benue State, and stressed the need for the state to
own a power generation plant that would transform the state and stimulate
economic activities.
