NERC Holds Regional Seminar for Judges of the Lagos State High Court The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) on Monday, 6 July 2026, held a regional seminar for judges of the Lagos State High Court in Lagos, aimed at strengthening judicial understanding of the evolving Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry (NESI). In his opening address, the Chairman of NERC, Dr. Musiliu Oseni, said NERC has transferred electricity market oversight to 16 states, ushering in a new era of multi-level regulation. “The objective is to ensure that My Lords are familiar with the intricacies and technical nature of the power sector. We look forward to engaging with you and sharing deeper insights into an industry that is critical to Nigeria’s economic development,” he added. Representing the Attorney General of Lagos State and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Lawal Pedro, SAN, the Solicitor-General of Lagos State, Hameed Oyenuga, commended NERC, noting that the seminar provided a valuable platform for judges to engage with stakeholders in the electricity industry, thereby ensuring that judicial decisions continue to support, rather than impede the ongoing power sector reforms. Also speaking, Justice Atinuke Ipaye, Administrative Judge of the Lagos Judicial Division, who represented the Chief Judge of Lagos State, Justice Kazeem Alogba, encouraged participants to take full advantage of the seminar by engaging actively with resource persons and seeking a deeper understanding of the evolving electricity landscape. The seminar featured presentations on key aspects of the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry, including: * Transitioning into a Decentralised Electricity Sector: Legal and Regulatory Perspectives, presented by the NERC Commissioner for Legal, Licensing and Compliance, Dafe C. Akpeneye. * Tariff Regulation in a Decentralised Electricity Market, delivered by the NERC Vice Chairman, Dr. Yusuf Ali. The seminar, themed: 'Nigeria's Electricity Market in Transition: Law, Regulation and the Courts,' is the first in a series of regional engagements by NERC aimed at enhancing judicial capacity and promoting a shared understanding of the legal and regulatory framework governing Nigeria's electricity market in transition. #NERC #Electricity #NESI #RegionalJudgesSeminar
