The Kogi State House of Assembly has commended the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the Energy Commission of Nigeria (ECN), Dr. Mustapha Abdullahi, for his contributions to renewable energy development and human capital development in the state.
The commendation was contained in House Resolution 080 of the 8th Assembly (2026), adopted during the House’s plenary on Thursday, August 6, 2026.
The resolution followed the Assembly’s consideration of Abdullahi’s contributions to Kogi State, particularly his role in facilitating the establishment of the Barefoot Renewable Energy College, Kogi State (BARECKS).
The lawmakers said his interventions demonstrated strategic leadership and commitment to using renewable energy and other initiatives to create opportunities and improve the lives of residents.
The Assembly also acknowledged initiatives linked to the renewable energy college, empowerment programmes for persons living with disabilities, financial support for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), ICT training, laptop distribution and scholarships for students at primary, secondary, tertiary and postgraduate levels.
It further cited the provision of solar-powered motorised boreholes as part of the interventions that have contributed to community development across the state.
