Description: The ECOWAS Heads of States in October 2012 opted-in to the process mandating ECREEE to coordinate Member States efforts in this regard. Prior to this, the Nigerian Government had earlier demonstrated the commitment of his administration to the Initiative by launching the SE4ALL Nigeria in August 2012. This singular act placed Nigeria as one of the first Nations in the world to embrace the initiative. Thus, the objectives of the SE4ALL initiative are considered in tandem with the goals of the national energy agenda, which gives high priority to providing access to safe, reliable and affordable energy to our citizens in both urban and rural areas. Nigeria is well endowed with resources in both renewable and non-renewable energies which can constitute plausible solutions to address existing shortfalls in energy and power access of the country.
