DropShot:
Fashola is working

Haters are hating

Wailing zombies are wailing

PMB is resolute in his patriotic mission irrespective of detractors.

PMB till 2023.

Shut up!!!
Deep down in you, you know buhari and his gang has failed. Defending this govt is the hardest thing to do now, cos they keep failing nigerians in daily basis.
All these senseless defence Will not help your conscience. Guy wise up.

You say you want to diversify, you say you want to industrialize, as things stand, you have a deficit of 40,000MW, you only have 5000MW, you are talking of 700MW, your population is growing everyday, you are celebrating 700MW as if it will make any difference. Bt the time the 700MW comes on strean polulation growth would have eaten it up. Idiots!!!!!


Some morons will be there shouting Fashola is working!!!

This is a joke,at a time we were getting this power stuff right, but I don't know what actually happened. GEJ I miss you. I now see the saying that the people deserve the kind of leaders they get.Nothing is just working except serving people with hunger as meal.

We had the same issues under GEJ too.....that is why he privatized power.(Because private sector can raise the money better...see GSM).

Under GEJ....maximum generation was 6000MW...which is enough to guarantee 12 hours of light for everyone.

Right now....irrespective of what Fashola said....I doubt we would see improvement now. We need to improve generation, and improve/replace the transmission system, and that needs $100billion extra funding every year. You get the money?

this is why people say this regime needs to focus on the business of governance & not chasing shadows.

the Zungeru project took off in 2013 (along with a number of other similar projects) & was to be completed in 3-4 years (its partly funded by the Chinese government).

however, the issue of compensation for host communities made the project move at a slow pace.

& it is a very good development that PMB has resolved the matter. & if he can set his vindictive nature aside, he would see that the last administration was certainly on the right path when it came to infrastructure & policies & it behoves PMB to set aside his ego & embrace those projects.

already we have seen that he is now 'stylishly' continuing with some projects initiated by GEJ...

from IPPIS to TSA...

from rail projects to power plants

purchasing arms from the East since the West isn't cooperative.

YOUWIN & others.

no government can do it all or get it all right. so why give blanket condemnations?

PMB at the end of his tenure will also leave unfinished projects that are beneficial & it will behove on his successor to complete those projects in the interest of Nigerians rather than deny the existence of such & then later eat their words by continuing those same projects when they realise the inherent benefits.

God bless Nigeria.

stop deceiving yourselves, Nigeria as it stands needs 40,000MW anybody who tells you Nigeria can give the whole country 12 hr light with 6000MW is lying to you. Maybe you have light in Lagos but it does not mean the guy in Ilorin or Aba will have light

And 60-70% of Nigerians , as well as most Nigerian govt and private institutions do not pay their power bills.

Fashola could do more....but now that power is privatized, he cant do much.

Add the fact that the problem needs $100Bn extra funding per annum....money which GEJ the ''good '' leader did not have....hence privatization.

It isn't just generation....we need to fix the transmission system too. And that is why we need to pay our bills....Govt inclusive. You cannot demand service without payment.

Which is what I have said earlier on this thread.....and which is why we all need to pay our bills, we need more meters, and we need to get our transmission and generation fixed.

And all that needs money.....$100 billion per annum for 5 years. according to a 2014 estimate

for instance,

Zungeru won't add much.....we need generation at 80000MW

Government of

Nigeria does not need $100B per annum. $100B will build you 60,0000MW. 60,000MW is more than enough. $5B per year spent with sincerity will add 30,000MW over 10 years that is 5 or 6 times what we have been able to acheive in 56 years.

While I agree in principle that people need to pay their bills. The truth is the power sector was sold to opportunists who are not specialists, they are not going to expand capacity. They are happy to collect monies for what is on ground without expanding.

9jakohai:

totally agreed.

but we do have to start somewhere... & our installed capacity is about 12,000 MW...

Oma307:
Mere propaganda, when it comes to power in this administration am beginning to give up because we are not in raining season yet the megawatt is dropping

If there is gas for udle power plants to work, you will have seen the difference

dunkem21:


We no even see 1 Megawatt

Minister of darkness

They should learn to make the citizens do the "noise making" for them. .

We ain't even enjoying what we have now. . .

Adding 700mw to what we have and we won't still feel it.

naija one step forward, 3 steps backward....2000 megawatts lost, 700 to be added

Story.
Always quoting figures as if the figures are going to power up my TV and fridge.

I was even beginning to applaud this man's effort in the power sector till this past 4 weeks. Have bought fuel worth more than I've paid for electricity bill since January.

Seems we are in the same boat. I have bought over 10x 30ltrs of fuel this month alone and all I have left at home is 1x30ltrs. May God provide for us....This Xmas may be so boring without electricity...

nerodenero:
Since they have been adding to the National grid, it is as though they're subtracting because the addition has never been felt. Power has never been stable and masses paying for power they was never consumed.

BRF, you be my man and I rep BFHS but I guess it's a rocket science now. Like the Daura man that thought governing Nigeria was like drinking Fura in Katsina, I guess he knows better now.

how many of you even still tap electricity??..

long time i didnt hear of this no more...

y are they telling us na? do the job first then the people will tesitify of constant electricity

Please about this solar energy thing, how can one get it for use in the house?
Lemme remove the wire and everything that links me to phcn and give it back to them!
