The Mustapha Abdullahi Energy Leadership Fellowship (MAELF), organised by the APC National Youth Wing in collaboration with the DAM Foundation, continued on Day Two with an engaging fireside chat featuring the Director-General of the Energy Commission of Nigeria (ECN), Dr. Mustapha Abdullahi.
He urged the fellows to embrace excellence, resilience, innovation, and healthy competition, stressing that success requires hard work, discipline, and continuous self-improvement. He also highlighted the growing impact of artificial intelligence, noting that the future belongs to problem-solvers.
“AI is reaching a point where what matters is who has the solution, not your influence,” he said.
Speaking on Advanced Grid Architecture, Energy Storage Systems, Pumped Hydro, and Emerging Technologies for Balancing Intermittency, the Executive Secretary of the Association of Local Distributors of Gas, Dr. John Kadiri, encouraged participants to drive innovation and sustainability, describing sustainable energy as the bridge to a better future.
The Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI), Suleiman Khalil Halilu, delivered a session on Advancing Clean Energy Manufacturing, urging innovators to align technology with policy, energy, and investment while remaining resilient in the face of criticism.
The fellowship also featured a panel on State-Level Energy Governance and Resource Management, with the Honourable Commissioners for Energy from Enugu, Hon. Enyinnaya Franklin Ogbonna; Lagos, Hon. Biodun Ogunleye; and Ondo, Hon. Johnson Jaiyeola Alabi, who shared insights into their states’ energy ecosystems and governance strategies.
The day’s activities concluded with an interactive session, as fellows engaged the speakers and gained practical insights into leadership, innovation, and Nigeria’s energy transition.

The Cross River State chapter of the Renewed Tinubu Is Fixing Nigeria (RTIFN) has urged Nigerians, particularly Cross Riverians, to remain confident in President Bola Tinubu’s administration, insisting that the Renewed Hope Agenda is delivering on its promise of national development.
The group also commended the Cross River State Government and residents of the state for their massive participation in the presidential campaign council rally held on November 2, 2026, at the U.J. Esuene Stadium, Calabar.
In a statement, the state coordinator of RTIFN, Cross River State, Engr. Anjor Obande, alongside members of the state executive council, local government and ward coordinators, praised Governor Bassey Otu and the First Lady, Apostle Dr. Eyoanwan Bassey Otu, for the successful hosting of the rally.
The group described the impressive turnout as a demonstration of the people’s support for President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda and Governor Otu’s People’s First agenda.
Obande and members of the state executive council said the large attendance reflected the growing acceptance of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Cross River State, expressing confidence in the party’s prospects in future elections.

The event was attended by Vice-President Kashim Shettima, the Governor of Akwa Ibom State, members of the National Assembly, national and state executives of the APC, members of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), national representatives of RTIFN and various support groups.
