FACT-CHECK: Did Joseph Tegbe Promise To End Grid Collapse In Three Months?

This video investigates the viral claim that Nigeria’s newly confirmed Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, promised to end national grid collapses within three months of taking office.

This fact-check breaks down the original transcript and the subsequent clarifications from his spokesperson, Adeola Adelabu, to distinguish between the minister’s actual accountability timeline and the exaggerated media reports.
