Oga. Someon raises a valid point, all you can do is pour expletives on him. EGBIN Thermal Power station was taught to me in social studies classes in primary school over 25 years ago. For anyone to lie shamelessly on national TV that the plant is being commissioned NEWLY as this thread implies is sickening.


Again this is not the 18th Century. Lie with some sense. Argue logically. Else you will pass as the bigger idio.t

Desperation and lies to deceive us over an election will not save your principal. Save your insults O.


If you must engage me, argue with facts.


Oh by the way. I saw your "I have delivered on Power" speech burning diesel at home.

Bunch of lying and shameless loons parading as leaders. Your waterloo has come

There's nothing like lie here. Agreed the plant was first commissioned in 1986 but it has been working below optimum capacity. This prompted GEJ to expand its capacity to 1320MW through all around rehabilitation and turnaround, hence the need for the recommissioning. Ok?

A whole lots of peeps here either out of ignorance or hatred are just saying some silly things about the commissioning.
For your information: The unit 6 of Egbin power station has not been working for 9yrs.
It was in 2014 that they started rehabilitation works at the unit.

So if a unit was revived after 9 years,then its worth commissioning.

Shut up ur mouth.

He expanded the genetaring station with additional unit.

More megawatts to d grid.

If una no get light hold ur governor or electricity distribution company.

The MW generated are sent to d national grid for onward transmission at 330KV voltage level and this voltage is stepped down to 132KV and 33KV. Ur disco takes 33KV and step down to 11kV and 415/240V for ur local consumption. If ur disco company don't give u transformer, even if We generate 22000MW u will not have light.

Lots of ignorant folks here


Bros, how do u explain all this to average Nigerian,all he needs is for your Ebele to give him an uninterrupted power i.e when he switch on light,there is brightness.all this megawatts language we no understand am

I find it funny when anti-jonathan find faults in the commissioning of these projects. Is not like the government started work on these project just yesterday, the contract and works have begun since and they are being commissioned after completion. This same scenario would have played out if they'd not shifted the election date. This same scenario will continue to shock you haters till May 29 when our Amiable Presido's second term starts.

I know these phantom commissioning wud backfire by the time the true story behind these projects are unearthed. A man that can commission the photograph of the 2nd Niger bridge can commission anything.

Please show us where he "COMMISSIONED the photograph of the 2nd Niger bridge" or we know it is the usual bullshiit of LIES from the APCheat house of propaganda

fortunately I enjoy 24 hours power supply here in ihovbor staff quarters.

Hold ur power distribution company responsible. GEJ has tried in building more power generating stations, expanding the transmission infrastructure.

The discos should upgrade and overhaul their distribution infrastructure since they are now private.

Ask ur Senator to provide ur community with distribution transformer. Stop blaming GEJ.
Speak for yourself then. You can be lynched if you go defending GEJ on power supply in a lot of areas.
Re: Commisioning Of Unit 6 (1320 MW) Egbin Power Station -live On Nta by omonnakoda: 2:46pm On Feb 21, 2015
The units at Egbin are obsolete frequently during rehabilitations recently they invited the Japanese who built it. They expressed surprise that the plants were still in use and found it difficut to source parts ,in some cases they had to build CASTS for some parts because they had been dicontinued.Anyone who knows anything about engineering would know how ridiculously expensive that is. This is the very same location where AES the Lagos state project is located. What shoud be happening at Egbin is not refurbishment but the installation of COMPLETELY NEW units which sadly seems unlikely. These plants have a life span after which diminishing returns sets in. In this case we are a the mercy of manufacturers who most likely will not be manufacturing the parts in 10 years time. Hopefully the new owners will manage it better than the Nigerians who were busy stealing transformers and other equipment. One Egbin GM not so long ago had over 20 cars in his yard,guess what? He is dead and was not buried in any of them

Which achievement?. Egbin is more than 27 years old. I did excursion there during Buharis regime and NEPA Nigerian engineers were taking control.of a very sophisticated plant. Everything went to dregs with IBB regime

This is a RE COMMISSIONING. That is they are commissioning again an already commissioned expansion of just one additional unit of a 30 year old plant.

When Buhari enters office again, the quality of education will improve and you guys will learn to reason critically and stop falling for LIES from politicians who are less intelligent than you.

For now please enjoy your RE-COMMISSIONING of one of the units of a 30 year old power plant by a lame duck president watching himself leaving office.[why do you hate President Jonathan, can you call your late poor [color=#006600][/color]father "LAME" ? ]

Nigerians are too gullible and mostly prone to collective amnesia.

We forget too easily.

Has anyone bothered to ask-

Why is this man suddenly commissioning one work or the other every week?
Why has he been so jerky to do in one month what he was unable to do in 6yrs?

Helllllloooooo!

Something doesn't smell right.

By the way, the "egbin plant" is supposed to cover ajao estate as I know it but as I type, there's been no light here no improvement since this week.

So, I should be sane to ask- what are the celebrating?
And, where is the improvement in power?

Are they only on paper?

Yesterday, a quantum leap was recorded in our quest for stable power supply with the commissioning of 750MW Olorunsogo Power generation station in Ogun State. Today, still in the spirit of confining power outage to perpetual obscurity, the President and Commander In Chief of Nigerian Armed Forces, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is presently commissioning another power station in Ikorodu, Lagos State. The project which came to fruition as a result of Mr.President's commitment to effectively lighten up Nigeria is the largest in West Africa and will add about 1320 MW of power supply to the national grid. Let's celebrate an achiever.
yes commissioning of power this power that where is d light now for past five days now no light . hmmmmmm

GEJ cannot give u common distribution transformer.

See below, transmission transformer that GEJ is providing across the power stations for power conversion.

This is 150MVA 330/132KV transformer, at this voltage level, ur whole community will be roasted like a burnt offering.

How much were you paid? If nothing, then stop hating unnecessarily. This is an achievement irrespective of how it came to be, except of course, if you are blinded by ulterior motives. I know your Buhari will do everything Jesus did while he was on earth, and even more.
But wait till he actually does them before you sing his praises.
