What do we say about this situation of NEPA (Never expect power always) to PHCN (Please Hold Candle Now) are we moving forward or backwards cos its horrible. How would they be giving resident extimated bills since August 2005 till date? In festac we had black out for the month of February and residents were billed for light that was not consumed is this fair on the part of this monocratic organisation? Sincerely Generators are no longer luxury but a necessity is this fair? Fellow Nigerian let say to this!!!

As long as they refuse to privatise the industry completely then there's going to be trouble. Face it, government-controlled industries never succeed because they're not bent on making a profit [and also because there're no competitiors]
Look at the communications industry -- how many times do you hear anything about NITEL?

Feel free to set up your own power plant. Private investors are currently being licensed. You buy gas generators and supply towns or estates. Contact the relevant government agencies for more information.

Power plant financing is not like rolling out a GSM network. It's capital intensive with huge variables.
Government ought to have make NEPA/PHCN a viable entity and if they can't they ought to have done away with her since.

I think the problem we are facing now with the so called P.H.C.N is simply caused by the greed of the people up there, because i see no reason why they should be privatizing N EPA if not because of their selfish interest. never the the less i know from the on set that they will never make any difference to what NEPA did, so guys i beg you to stop talking about P.H.C.N, its no use.

I know you are not a complete idiot. Which is why I don't understand why you think privatization is the problem.

Sometimes ordinary Nigerians are more intelligent than our dumb leaders think and give us credit for.
This matter was first reported in May 2005 and here we are July 2007 over 2 years later, the problem as predicted by good Nairaland user got worse and no respite in sight.
Infact, one joke I heared during the election campaign in March and April 2007 was that electricity will be fixed in May 2007. I.e vote for us PDP then miraculously you will have power that you don't have for many years in 1 month.
PDP - NO POWER
Ironically, at least among the front running party PDP is by far the most potent and better which shows the state of our politics, in a blinds man coutry, one eyed is the King.
I am waiting for Yar Adua's promise to declare state of emergency on power outage, infact if he did not accomplish at least 25-50,000MW before the end of the 2nd to 4th year, the whole of the pDP nationwide should be given the RED card.
But then we better be building formidable and credible opposition now.
WE NEED GOD HELP TO GIVE US LIGHT, BLACKMAN PUTTING HIS FELLOW BLACKMAN IN DARKENESS, THE FACT THAT WE ARE BLACK DOES NOT MEAN WE SHOULD BE IN DARKNESS ALL THE TIME.
GOD GUIDE AND BLESS US PLEASE.
