The Federal Government is set to increase electricity megawatts from 4,000 to 6,000 within the next three to six months to improve power supply.

The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, said this while meeting with the heads of power agencies and other stakeholders in the industry in Abuja.

Adelabu said he had visited a number of generation companies and confirmed that they had the installed capacity to generate the 6,000 megawatts.

Adelabu also lamented the activities of vandals and recommended the death penalty for persons who steal power infrastructure.
