Power outage rocked National Assembly on Monday while the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, was interacting with senators at the investigative hearing on “the need to halt the increase in the price of electricity” organised by the Senate Committee on Power.

Adelabu was summoned by the Senate to speak on the recent tariff and justify the increase.
