The federal government has restated its plan to achieve 10,000 Megawatts of electricity by the end of the year.

The permanent secretary of the Ministry of Power, Mr Godknows Igali told journalists in Abuja that the country has returned to more than 4,000 MW after dropping by 1,000 a week ago.

Mr Igali assured Nigerians that the country will strive to achieve 10,000MW by the end of the year when the National Integrated Power Project (NIPP) projects are completed.

The ministry official also claimed that power supply has improved as he assured Nigerians of better days ahead.

He affirmed that Nigerians now enjoy an average of 16 hours steady electricity supply without interruption.

He described this as a major leap from the past, adding that with the on-going overhaul of the power sector, the current generation rate will soar and ultimately lead to uninterrupted power supply.

Another major complaint was the issue of hidden charges paid by Nigerians especially those who use the prepaid meters.

Lmaoooo at 16hrs uninterrupted supply.. I would share testimony in my church if we can have 5hrs uninterrupted supply.





@pix: E don tey no be today!

I tired of all these Megawatts talk, joor

It is only a fool that will wait and expect it is fufilled. What about the refineries that FG promised to refubish to work upto 90% capacity by Sep last year.they even lied that the engineers have started workin on it.
They fool some of the people all of the time but they can not fool all of the people all of the time.

This is stale news, as old as Metuselah.

Don't hold your breathe. 1 step forward and 2 steps backward has been the norm. I don't expect any improvement 4rm the FG

Nah Today

I dey laugh ooooo

Less than 4,000 MW for population of more than 170 millions people.

I don't like this kind of country of irresponsible leaders.

Nah, 10000MB per month for 1k from MTN will be appreciated more (and more believable sef) .

That electricity own na wash wash. Na today?

We should remember that Nigeria derives most of her incomes from the sales of petroleum products. Fixing our electricity will definitely reduce the rate of generator usage thereby reducing our consumption of petroleum products.

I therefore do not see the federal government fixing electricity anytime soon.

Nigerians have really lost hope in this government, see posts
Instead of all these negative posts, let's use 2015 election to elect people with reputation who have been tested and trusted.
God bless Nigeria.
