Grade 2 math solved.

This is Nigeria and those guys will walk him out that office if Fashola dares them.

In my end, we pay bills from every 15th of the month and since about 18 of Jan, the light went off only to comeback yesterday 12th. Hope I am not entitled to pay that bill?

To be honest right if anybody is going to fight corruption all the money stolen from the 70s to this moment need to show up, then we can say Buhari is doing something because it looks like that money only circulated in one way. We can't keep arresting some and leaving some people that don't want to return our money .

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, has said he will, like other consumers, be more resistant to payment of electricity bill if there is no supply.

Fashola said this on Monday at the 12th Monthly Power Sector and Stakeholders’ Meeting in Ibadan hosted by Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company.

Power generation in the country has worsened in recent weeks after hitting the 4,000 megawatts mark in December last year, with many consumers without prepaid meters complaining about over-estimated bills despite the dip in supply.

Commenting on the problems in the power sector, the minister said sabotage of gas assets and pipelines had “decommissioned power plants and their ability to provide up to 3,000 megawatts of power”.

He said, “The 3,500MW to 3,800MW that we have been able to keep on the grid over the last few months will be assisted greatly if we can have the gas pipelines back and add 3,000MW to it. That means we will be able to deliver well over 6,000MW if the gas pipelines are safe.”

Fashola said the sabotage had also created debt and liquidity problems, shortfall in power expectation, and in revenue recovery by power distribution firms.

“Consumers are more resistant to payment when they don’t have electricity, and I will be, too, and you will be too,” he told the power investors and other stakeholders at the meeting.

“We see that they (consumers) pay more when the power is more stable. Of course, there are issues also at the retail end – metering, estimated bills.”

Noting that all stakeholders have different roles to play in solving the problems, the minister said, “You will see that government has begun to act. The Vice President, representing the President, is going round those Niger Delta communities, engaging them more openly, more robustly.

“The idea is to bring them to the table to stop the vandalism while the issues that agitate them can be treated and resolved. I believe that if we are successful as we expect to be, we should be able to, sometimes, this year recover all the 3,000MW that has been lost to gas pipeline outages.”

And when your power ministry manage to bring light for 2 hours they will bring ridiculous and estimated bills that will be tripple to cover other days that there is no light.

E don reach to carry Pole?

Can't forget that year when they came to carry our cables despite the fact we have paid N43K for prepaid meter 7 months earlier and they refused to come install it.

I repeat, this man isn't fit for a power minister.
How can u say people will pay more when it is more stable?
Is he saying the cost of generation per KwH of 'stable' power will be higher? It should be cheaper even, because vandalism cost will be gone. Fashola is fit for flower and not power. He is after money and has proven it again.

I could vividly remember the last time I went to NEPA office to lodge a complain about high bill they are bringing despite not giving us light at all and i was shocked and perplexed when I saw them powering this useless shabby and rusted I better pass my neighbor gen and the worst part of it was tat they even bend the generator. I'm just speechless when they asked me why am in there office.

fuckingAyaya:
lmao

rabzy:


Consumers would be less resistant to payment and readily pay their bills and therefore the Discos would get more money from consumers. I moved to an area where i have about 20 hours light and my house uses prepaid meters, Now i pay recharge my card even before it runs out. I have no business again with those touts that climbs poles.

silastemplar:
I'm sorry for you. That's all I can say.
