When Buhari said "since 1999, Nigeria has been stuck on a meagre 2500MW despite the billions allocated to power supply, Abati came to talk rubbish on National TV debunking his statements with boldness till I almost believed the dumbo. The General has been vindicated once again grin

The same story. This is a confused government.

Very unfortunate. Why this president fails to perform well surprises me.

There are other ways to generate electricity that gas is not needed, why government not going that way.

The truth is that Jona has fail and he has fail forever, we have been under the Wilm oh pdp since 1999 and things has not been working. It is time we try an opposition government , if not the masses will suffer more of this weak leadership style of Jonathan. A president who is busy Appointing 80 years old to head ministries and busy hiring ex-convicted and current criminals to run government on his behalf is an insult on educated Nigerians. I just hate this president because of his lackasaidick attitudes.

How many MW are the various Lagos IPPs adding?
I'm sure Lagos's IPPs are responsible for the supply of power to the whole country? Even when the cluelessness of this government stares you in the face, you still maneuver around and you end up embarrassing yourself.

The rains are almost gone so power has dropped by 1000MW.
What exactly do you expect from a clueless government who only celebrate increase in electricity supply during the rainy season?

Fresh Air! grin grin
Do you remember the other thread where some guy came out bragging about the level of electricity supply and my comment was "please what season of the year are we again??" I think it was you who replied "rainy season grin". Now we are here!!! Dry season is creeping in and Tinubu and Buhari, in their usual style, have gone to Utuoke and environs, with their diggers and axes to vandalise gas pipeline and embarrass the government. Smh.

Does one get any more incompetent than this

We know this administration led by a retàrd has nothing good to offer this country. It is so pathetic!
The major need of Nigerians is POWER and all this bastàrd corrupt old fool knows it but will NEVER want to fix it.
ARE WE CURSED IN THIS COUNTRY?
- we have surplus crude oil
- we have surplus gas
- we have surplus dams
Yet for 54 years after independence, we can't fix this one thing.
The problem is so worrisome that sometimes, I begin to think it's impossible to achieved steady power even after ALL the BILLON DOLLARS that has been spent on it in the last 15 years. History will never forget Obasanjo who stole and squandered billions of dollars too on its course.
Texas is just a state in U.S bigger than the whole Nigeria but it's electricity producing plant just cost 2 billion dollars.
GEJ said he will fix power in four years if given the opportunity in 2011 and that, "four years is enough to fix power, if I can't do it in four years, I can never do it".
How I wish this clueless corrupt drunk was able to do this one thing, I would have wholeheartedly supported him if he cares to do 3 terms till 2023.
Enough is enough!
come 2015, we will take our country back from PDP.

Exactly.

I recall a documentary on NTA from as farback as 1991 saying that we were flaring too much gas. Obviously over the years, no one was listening.

As for the dams....Kainji et al are all OLD.

This is depressing. We seem to be running around in circles here. On a general note, I think vandalism is just one of the problems. What about the generator importers? I bet they will do anything to make sure we continue in darkness. This is what you get when you don't tackle issues on time. If this power issue had been tackled years ago, we would not be talking of generators in the first place. We lack leaders who can see and project into the future.

Yes, I won't be surprised @ the bolded.....especially as they were responsible for Prof Nnaji's removal (Prof Nnaji was on the road to giving us 10000mw when he was sacked)

Yeah,itz been dropping ever since Obasanjo left office with the $16b he calmed to have invested into power... Itz quite pathetic.

Isha sesay was @ abuja,reporting live on cnn yesterday & our country's state capital was literally covered in DARKNESS.

Candles,Torchlight,Batteries & Generator has been a big & lucrative industry in Nigeria,worth billions of naira since 1955.

No mind them, ignorant people! I'm well travelled across Africa and can tell you authoritatively that in terms of infrastructure, Nigeria is one of the least developed countries in Africa. You need to see countries like Botswana, Zambia, Malawi, Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Angola, Zimbabwe, Namibia, SA, Algeria, etc. One would be embarrassed for Nigeria, the deluded giant of Africa. Na so we go dey continue?
