Tinubu’s Minister of Power Adelabu Flaunts Multibillion-Naira Private Mansion, Dubbed ‘Government White House No. 2’ (VIDEO)

A viral video has sparked outrage after Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, was seen touring and entertaining supporters in his multibillion-naira private mansion in Ibadan, which he reportedly dubbed “Government White House No. 2.”

Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, is facing intense public backlash after a viral video showed him entertaining supporters inside a multi-million-naira mansion in Ibadan, Oyo State.

The footage, which surfaced on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, captures Adelabu moving through the expansive white-finished property, adorned with luxury fittings.

The video’s emergence comes at a time when Nigeria’s power sector is mired in chronic underperformance, financial instability, and decaying infrastructure. The industry continues to battle a liquidity crisis, frequent grid collapses, tariff disputes, and ageing equipment.

Adelabu has previously disclosed that the federal government owes electricity generation companies legacy debts amounting to ₦4 trillion as of the end of 2024.

A recent World Bank report, Tracking Sustainable Development Goal 7: The Energy Progress Report 2025, ranked Nigeria as having the largest population without electricity access globally, with 86.8 million citizens living off the grid.

The viral video has reignited debate over political priorities and the optics of leadership in a nation where erratic power supply continues to hamper economic growth and disrupt daily life. Adelabu has yet to publicly comment on the controversy.
