As expected, I won't argue with you. No need wasting my energy. Read my arguments with other members.

The supply of electricity across the country will worsen in coming days due to the loss of about 800 megawatts of power as a result of the blasting of the Escravos Lagos Gas Pipeline at midnight of Wednesday.

According to the Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo, the recent damage was done by vandals, who ruptured the ELGP with an explosive device at Egwa, near Batan, in Gbaramatu Kingdom, Delta State.

Speaking through his Special Assistant on Media, Mrs. Kande Daniel, the minister said this attack, being the fourth this year, came only hours after repairs on an earlier attack of Sunday, March 1, 2015 were completed and gas were being piped through the pipeline again.

Nebo, in a statement on Thursday night, said the exact extent of the damage was being assessed but the impact was the loss of about 200 mmscf/d of gas, equivalent of about 800MW per day of generated power.

According to Nebo, it has become clear that the vandals, who perpetrate these acts are intent on crippling the power sector and bringing untold hardship on Nigerians for either political or financial gains or both.

He said although pipeline vandalism had held power generation at less than 4,000MW as against currently available capacity of over 5,000MW, government was not deterred from its commitment to provide security for its oil and gas, as well as power infrastructure.

The minister stressed that the nation could now conveniently generate and wheel out over 4,500MW, but for gas supply disruptions through vandalism.

Nebo also appealed to Nigerians to become more vigilant and report suspicious movements and actions to security agencies for effective protection of public infrastructure for the common good of Nigeria.

haibe:


you must very stupidd to think it's the fault of the president or the power minister that we don't have at leat a reasonable power supply. Do you know how often pipelines are vandalized by stupidd nigerians like you? How can power supply be stable if this continue? And please don't quote if you still remain a dumbb person

stinggy:

Even Wuse2 is feeling the heat?
I give up then.. I shouldn't be complaining.

DBlackCeazer:
we only get about 4 hrs/24hr of power in Ajah,it def cant be any worse.

steppins:

APC can go to any length to discredit GEJ, so don't tell me that bull about being a PDP controlled state.
When the federal govt accused the oil marketers of being influenced by the opposition, were they(Oil marketers) not controlled by the government?
Few weeks to presidential elections, pipelines and generating plants are damaged and the opposition knows nothing about it?
Abeg, talk better thing jor!

Eneze1:
Worsen I just wish this government can actually make a headway in this power sector. I'm tired of using my generator to pump water. The last time we had electricity in my area is 4 days ago

Talk2david1:
I really find it difficult to understand when they say power supply will worsen! We bin even get d light in the first place make ei wan com worsen?

ribbit:
before the pipeline explosion, did you have constant 24/7 power supply in your house?

bushdoc9919:
Oh dear.

Thanks PDP....(Especially for removing Prof Nnaji.....way to go!).

On a more serious note....the trouble is that we have a serious generation problem.

Since every Nigerian loves to hate Nuclear power.....I suggest we collabo with Niger Republic....and build giant solar farms in the Sahara desert....could help raise our generation. Oh...and more HEP dams....and more gas powered plants.

And let us stop hearing about the transformation in power....because it does not exist. We are still far behind.

Modified.....About time we set up a Pipeline security Police....and equipped them with helicopters, drones, and weapons to sniff out pipeline vandals.

Arch1:
I give up

steppins:

Here in the east, it's stable...18hrs per day.
Keep supporting Buhari and yet you wonder why you have no light.

fpeter:



Omo na we feel am pass o....na daily occurrence.

Hehehe....
And i use to envy una lite b4 oo.
This Transformation for power sector na veri negative one and den go soon dey shout 7 million MW nw

ribbit:
so 18hrs is the best your government could give abi? And the fact that you had 18hrs means every neighborhood in the east has 18hrs?

Is Buhari the one withholding power since 1999? Is Buhari the one that says the government around build 2000mw of electricity with 30billion dollars under Jonathan while China built 25000mw of electricity with 25billion dollars?

Is Buhari the one that says 24hrs power supply is impossible in Nigeria or pdp led government?

Is Buhari the that says you people should not use your brains and ask your government to take responsibility for whatever happens under its nose?



A responsible government takes responsible for everything that it controls... Pdp government blames opposition that was formed 2years for everything a common sense could prevented. And the so called youths think the right thing is for such government to continue to look em as long as he comes from their tribe or religion.

steppins:

Question!
I answered the reasonable question you asked and you came back with silly ones.
Is GEJ the one withholding power since 1960?
Is GEJ the one that says 24hrs power supply is impossible in Nigeria?
Is GEJ the one that says you should vote for a man surrounded with corrupt mafians?
Since you've decided to add insults to your posts, don't quote me again. Even if you do, I won't reply .
I'm allergic to mumu people.
