Power Supply To Hit 9,000mw In December, Nnaji Promises by nwabobo: 6:09pm On Feb 18, 2012 |
Prof Bart Nnaji, the Minister of Power, said on Friday that power supply in the country would reach above 9,000mw by December if all challenges confronting gas supply were resolved. Nnaji made the statement in Abuja at a one-day meeting between the Ministry of Power and Ministry of Petroleum Resources with other stakeholders in the oil and gas sector. “As you know, the Federal Government has been doing a lot to ensure that we rapidly accelerate power supply situation in the country,’’ he said. Nnaji said Mr President launched the power roadmap in 2010 and“ as part of that, we are aligning the entire value chain of power production level. “The critical element in that is that of gas supply.’’ He said the ` `Ministry of Petroleum Resources and Ministry of Power have been working together to ensure that we bridge whatever gap.’’ The minister said the country would collaborate with international oil producers and the producers of gas and transportation to ensure that the gap was filled. He explained that when all the National Integrated Power Producers would start functioning in December and gas supply was steady to the plants, more electricity would get to consumers. According to him, many of the independent power producers are ready except gas supply, which is holding them from taking off.

nwabobo: Prof needs to be a bit more specific on precisely how he plans to address the challenges posed by an erratic supply of gas. |

Story story, story. How about some friendly advice, please, stop giving us promises for now, deliver first and then show us what you've done. Then we can believe whatever promises you spew out. No results, no trust. Its that simple. |

Here's hoping that come december 2012, Nigerians would not have lost another opportunity to demand true change from those who continue to bilk them, and generations of their children, of the truly wonderful future they deserve and were given by the creator who gave them with so much land and resources as is still found in much of Nigeria. |

"If the challenges of has supply are resolved." so what if its not resolved before that time? Then of course the fault wont be his. The man is just playing politics here. |

HNosegbe: I concur, that is currently where my head is at with all things federal government. There is an immense trust deficit between government and the people and promises we've all heard many times over will not efface it, solid results will. No more blind promises (it is irritating), deliver or shut up. All I want to be hearing about is progress updates on solutions already being implemented, not lofty plans to start the process of implementing. |

nnaji has not improve nigeria electricity . most part of nigeria are in darkness. and most part of nigeria, do not get even 1 hour of electricity a day. Nnaji have more of been running propaganda instead of during anything. instead of Nnaji spending more time with the press. why not spend it doing something. I think the idea of buy over the press over should stop. Nigeria is still in darkness. all the so call useless licence he issued. even the way he issue them shows he does not know anything. or he has no solution to how he fix electricity. No body issue licence that way. |

seunlayi: Of course, there has never been power failure in Nigerian since then. Actually power failure stopped in 2010 shortly after Jonathan became Ag President. This is proof April 2010. Nigeria has a lot of people like you giving testimonies that we are in winter https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-433272.0.html Jakumo: |

It will only make me a fool and insensitive if i agree to what PROF.Bath said, i have seen successive governments make promises but all their promises followed the wind to Mr.nowhere. i will agree and rejoice over these when in December i find out that my generator have gone on a compulsory leave issued by PHCN. As for now Goodluck is still giving me the same drug that never cured my sickness. and i cant rejoice when am sick. Our government may have tried in every other aspect but in power generation they are still lagging behind. I MUST REMIND THAT HE MADE THIS PROMISE ON CONDITION, |

^^^^ To start with, anyone can say that the Nigerian economy can overtake American's in 2015 IF some conditions holds But given the way things are here, we know that such a promise/forecast is virtually meaningless So it might be actually be better to say nothing Now look at this http://www.businessdayonline.com/NG/index.php/analysis/commentary/24821-missed-milestones-of-the-power-sector-roadmap Missed milestones of the power sector roadmap excerpts "We have the will. This Roadmap shows the way". With those words President Goodluck Jonathan closed his speech in the presence of industry captains, leading government officials, investment bankers, international investors and development bankers as the Federal Government unveiled the Power Sector Roadmap - perhaps the most comprehensive policy document ever put together in Nigeria. It is now approximately 12 months since that gathering at Eko hotel and industry analysts are wondering if they picked up the wrong map. The Presidential Action Committee on Power (PACP) constituted by President Goodluck Jonathan has done a good job of re-tracking the reform agenda and documenting an implementation path laced with milestones and performance timelines. However, these milestones, regrettably, are consistently being missed likewise the established timelines. Commentators have often blamed Nigeria's perennial sacrificial lamb - "the Nigerian Factor" for this failure. I do not subscribe to this school of thought. Infact, that phrase should now begin to take its place in Nigeria's archives given the renewed resolve, energy and determination of some Nigerians to do the right thing. Evidence can be fetched from the last general elections. Another excuse offered for this failure is the last general elections. Again, this is tenuous. Didn't policymakers know an election year was approaching while setting timelines and targets? Wouldn't it be prudent to anticipate electioneering delays and incorporate it in the programs? Shouldn't the machinery of existing reforms be running while new promises are made to the electorate? |

NIPP was charged with achieving 6,000 mw in 2009 Jonathan, as VP, was the chairman. This target was not achieved As soon as he became Ag President, he sacked the Minister of Power and took charge of the Ministry But it took him 6months to come up with a roadmap To me this means that as chair of NIPP, it was not Yaradua that did not allow him work. Otherwise he would have published within 3 weeks of becoming Ag President the roadmap that perhaps Yaradua had been sitting on http://www.proshareng.com/admin/upload/reports/PowerSectorUpdateMeeting%20thePowerTarget.pdf A short term target of 6,000MW has been earmarked, with a deadline for 31 December 2009, while it intends to achieve a medium term target of 10,000 MW by 2011. In furtherance of its objective, $5.37 billion has been approved from the Excess Crude Account to finance the NIPP, while funding is also expected from the fiscally challenged 2009 Budget for projects which cut across power generation, transmission and distribution. In a bid to resuscitate the abandoned National Integrated Power Projects (NIPP), the Federal Government set up a Presidential Steering Council on the NIPP, chaired by Vice President Goodluck Jonathan. The Steering Council also has as member’s six state Governors. The Council is to coordinate the activities of the NIPP and fast track the efficient generation, transmission and distribution of power to Nigerians. Led by its Chairman, members of the Council have already begun visiting the sites of the projects. In addition to the Steering Committee, an Implementation Committee headed by the Minister of Power, Dr Lanre Babalola is to work with the project managers to speed up action on the varying projects. Members of the Committee would be drawn from the Ministry of Power, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN). |
