Mr Kola Adesina is Group Managing Director of Sahara Power Group, owners and operators of Ikeja Electric and Egbin Power Plc. Adesina says Nigeria’s intractable power problem, which has appeared to defy all solutions, can only be resolved when all relevant stakeholders in the power sector sincerely decide to do the right thing. He dissects the Nigerian electricity industry, exposing hitherto hidden aspects of the power privatisation process and other critical issues in the sector, in this interview with a team of THISDAY editors, comprising Vincent Obia, Kunle Aderinokun and Bamidele Famoofo. Excerpts:



How would you react to the widespread belief that the power sector privatisation in Nigeria has failed due to irregularities?

The situation in the power sector has been repeatedly stated and all the stakeholders are not happy. Everybody in the sector, as we speak today, is not happy. The reason being that, imagine you preparing to write an exam, and the course is Geography, then you enter the examination hall, and they give you Biology or Physics questions to answer.

I like this illustration,for real Fashola is brilliant he had gave us solution to the power problem,but it seems is not too favourable to the enemies of this nation.The Solution that Fashola gave is very simple that they should give every consumers pre-pay meter,by so doing our power will stable because if they don't bring light they will not generate money,compare the analogue meters that they just bring bills as they like.
