Jonathan Commissions Geregu-II Power Station by Symphony007: 12:01pm On Oct 03, 2013 |
So you all know that i'm not a bitter, constant persimist or jonathan hated. I am currently watching the commissioning of the geregu power station in kogi by pres. Jonathan. It is quite an impressive facility and will no doubt give a boost to our power situation. When good things happen in our country, we should be glad but constructive critisim should not be looked upon as being anti-jonathan. You can watch it live on NTA or AIT. 5 Likes

NL knows the real people that have the pull him down mentality because of his tribe. For them everything associated with him is evil so long as its not their tribes man or affiliate. The key point is constructive criticism no matter who is involved. 3 Likes |

Promhize: Fresh Air. What OBJ could not do in 8yearsYOU CAN TELL THAT TO THE 160 MILLION MUMU Who are you deceiving ?Obj initiated and fully paid for geregu,omotosho and 4 other power stations. Construction of the civil engineering part was already complete before GEJ even smelt ado rock.the mechanical engr aspect which is the turbines had to be machined to specification and was ready before yar adua went comatose Jonathan as usual is reaping where he did not sow. This government,for those who offer criticism on issues is a calamity. That is why he keeps borrowing for the most mundane of things. Else Let him initiate and pay for 5 power plants right now . STOP PRESS OBASANJO ACTUALLY COMPLETED THIS POWER PLANT . UNCLE CLUELESS JOE IS ONLY DOING THE USUAL PAINTING AND GRASS CUTTING PROPAGANDA PROOF http://worldstagegroup.com/worldstagenew/index.php?active=page&id=1102&pgcat=news&start=2329 Siemens Energy said it has received an order from Niger Delta Power Holding Company for construction of the Geregu II gas turbine power plant in Ajaokuta, about 200 kilometer south of Abuja. The order volume is approximately E230 million (about N43.24 billion). The gas-fired power plant is scheduled to start commercial operation in late 2012. Geregu II is a follow-up project to the Geregu I power plant, which Siemens built back in 2006. The company will supply three SGT5-2000E gas turbines, the electrical equipment and an SPPA-T3000 instrumentation and control system for the 434MW plant, which it will build as a turnkey project, the company said. Michael Suess, CEO of the fossil power generation division of Siemens Energy, said: "After construction of the Afam and Geregu I power plants the order for Geregu II marks a further milestone for Siemens in Nigeria and in Africa. With the latest project the number of Siemens heavy-duty gas turbines in Nigeria will increase to eight." The Geregu power plant, established under the National Independent Power Project, was among the plants inaugurated by former President Obasanjo shortly before he handed over power in 2007.Nigerian Geregu Gas Turbine Power Plant 1, the first brand new power plant funded and commissioned by his Obasanjo administration was built at a cost of euro 195m ($256 million ), it has the capacity to generate 414 megawatts of electric power. 13 Likes |

bloggernaija: Obasanjo could not complete the geregu power in 8yrs, Jonathan completed his in 3yrs. Jonathan also completed obasanjo's own. Stop trying so hard to defend a failed leader, if obasanjo really did well why did power supply worsen under him or haven't you heard Nigeria had 6000mw as at 1999.

Can't you just give him a little credit for continuity? He is commissioning other people's work. Painting airports built by the so called clueless aboki. The fuel subsidy heist Alone could have built at least 25 geregus and ended a lot of gas flaring .do the maths 25 x 414MW that is over 10000MW . When people call him mediocre,we know what we are talking. Iraq whose power infrastructure was bombed out during the first and second gulf war has added/adding more than 10000MW SINCE THE WAR ENDED 2 yrs ago. You are here defending an obviously mediocre president . I wonder what project of national strategic significance he will commission once he exits the tail wind of OBJ's regime's fiscal prudence. 5 Likes |

bloggernaija: Would you want to compare an 8 yer administration with one barely 2 yrs old. your reaction is unnecessary. Govt is a continuum and not a stupidd competition as you think it is. Its about the people. In Lagos The rail system was conceived by Jakande. the housing estate all-over is still credited to Jakande. If Fashola does something about it, wouldn't we give him credit? FYI, geregu 2 was never fully paid for by the OBJ administration. Besides how many of such contracts are FULLY paid for before it starts. If you are talking of Geregu 1 ie the 414MW that has been operating as an island for years I'll say fine. But not Geregu 2. I worked at Ajaokuta so I am well informed about things. I don't need any twisted media reports. Now I agree with GEJ that there is politics everywhere. Guy, That plant is for the good of Nigerians Let's celebrate. even if it was built by Lord Luggard. 38 Likes |
Re: Jonathan Commissions Geregu-II Power Station by Nobody: 3:49pm On Oct 03, 2013 |
Pls show us proof of the Iraqi 10000mw. And Geregu I is not the same as Geregu II. Maybe u have not been listening to news lately, what of the power plant that was commissioned in Aba few weeks ago, this is not the 1st commissioned this year, neither is it the second and it is definitely not the last. Keep calm @ bloggernaija, other power plants will be commissioned and electricity will improve just as u wish. Chilax, don't compare a fruitful 2years administration to a barren 8yrs of nothing that could come close to mediocrity 6 Likes |

duality: Mr man,read that post properly . Less than 12 months was enough for them to loot the equivalent of more than 25 geregus. He started with the advantages of OBJ's ending He started with a bank balance with significant reserves. He drained the excess crude account with nothing to show for it. Massive foreign exchange reserve. A declining recurrent to capital ratio. With all this advantages and bearing in mind how the excess crude account was depleted from $22 billion to almost 0 ,fuel subsidy fraud etc, The nation should be talking about 20000MW today. Like I said earlier ,I dare him to build only 5 geregus right now without borrowing .just like obj.continue living in darkness I'm out. 4 Likes |

You can't blame all of nigeria's problem on a man who has been in office for 3 years as opposed to 8 years of obasanjo and 3 years of yar adua and all the wasted years of the military. Obj was the right man for the time.he is the reason why there are no coups and GEJ is a president . Why he chose yar adua/GEJ,I do not know.like a journalist wrote,neither of them would feature as a performer/good leaders in roll call of the governors /administrators of the time . He had the likes o El rufai Ribadu Ekwesili Donald Duke Raphael ndukwe of GSM license fame to pair together. People who are independently minded and succeeded to a large extent in their fields .he could have given them political cover while they administer the country. They wouldn't have done worse. |

bloggernaija: The earlier you realize that all these negative commentaries is nothing but a dead end, the better for you. If Nigeria should be talking of 20000mw, why was 1 watt not added to the grid since 1970-1980s-90s you want to hold one man responsible for it? anyway rejoice;!!! we just added 434 MW today. that's a mile stone; even if it was commissioned by your foe. Do you wan't this administration to succeed? or you want this administration to fail so that you can prove you feelings right? If you keep thinking like this, it will affect other areas of your life. so watch it. Take this fact to the bank. ..Those who always see negatives about others can never be positive.. reason; Humans see things the way they (themselves) are.

I cant believe some COMPOUND FOOLS are still talking about OBJ administration that ended in 2007 (6 years ago)? For goodness sake, this same OBJ had 8 solid years to play with. This same OBJ succeeded another govt in 1999, inherited uncompleted projects from his predecessors and subsequently had 8 full years to do WHATEVER he wanted to do. How come we'r still talking about OBJ who left office 6 years ago? The hatred some people have for GEJ will soon boil over to INSANITY. 25 Likes |

Was Nigeria project-less in 1999 when OBJ came to power? What stopped OBJ from also continuing and completing the uncompleted projects he inherited? What stopped OBJ from initiating and completing projects in 8 years? Is 8 years too short a time to start and complete projects? 14 Likes |
