Electricity Generation Falls To 2,616MW, Six Plants Idle by ikewaterwater: 6:47am On May 23, 2019
Nigeria's electricity generation has fallen to 2,616MW as it was further gathered that six power plants in different parts of the country are idle. 

The total power generation declined to 3,978.5MW as of 6.00am on Monday from 4,297MW on Sunday. It further fell to 2,616MW, following the heavy rainfall in Lagos which damaged some power facilities and worsened supply in parts of the state.

While its been confirmed that electricity generation has fallen to 2,616MW, six power plants, namely Alaoji NIPP, Olorunsogo NIPP and Ihovbor NIPP, Gbarain NIPP, AES IPP and ASCO IPP, were idle as of 6.00am on Tuesday. A total generation capacity of 2,443.2MW was said to be unavailable as of 6.00am on Tuesday as a result of line constraints (544MW), low load demand by electricity distribution companies (1,749.2MW) and water management (150MW).

This govt.....about to start another 4 yrs..... I m sure 50%of those who voted for them apart from the rigged figures will be regretting by now. Another 4 yrs is like another 66yrs. So I know is that God that made me to see the end of shagari Buhari, babangida, include Abacha s regime so make me and you see the end of this present lying, gruesome, govt.

We are long due for revolution

It is bad, but the fact is, fixing the problem needs cash, and lots of it.

If Nigerians and their government agencies, rich and poor pay their bills regularly, power might just improve.

If we want 24/7 power, we needs must pay for it.

Simple.

Revolution won't change the problem.

If a govt can't fixed power generation - distribution - even its marketing system, what else can they fix? Nigeria has failed. That means even if we have nuclear equipments, its mismanagement would have bn wasting people's life

Power has been privatised since 2014, long before Master Rocket Science took over.

All he can do now is

1.Negotiate for a long term loan to fix transmission

2.Force discos to.meter everyone

3.Allow discos charge the prices they want to charge, and allow competition

Thanks to privatization, we are now the ones responsible for funding the power sector.

Generation and distribution have been in private hands since 2014.

All government does is bail them out because they ain't making enough money because sadly Nigerians see power as something that should be free
