The title is so wrong. I wan faint when I first saw it cos I have not had light for 3 days now. Installed capacity not actual generation. If they had said they now generate 5,500 MW, that would have been the greatest lie of GEJ's regime.

And prof. Nebo is proud of saying FG now generates 5,500 mega watts which we all know it only exist on paper. Proud of fashola.

Just shut up and pray GMB keeps up the tempo in the power sector. GEJ on his part has done remarkably well by increasing generated power from less than 1,500MW of the OBJ years to 5,000 MW. Now THAT is governance on the right track.

The federal government on Friday said it has met 5,500 megawatts in power generation.
It equally disclosed that N1.5bn was lost yearly to vandalism.


This is just as President Goodluck Jonathan would soon commence inauguration of completed power projects across the country.


This disclosure was made at a joint press briefing by the Minister of Power, Professor Chinedu Nebo and Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam at the end of the last meeting of the Board of Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC) Ltd, held at the vice presidential wing of the presidential villa.


The meeting was chaired by Vice-President Namadi Sambo.
According to Nebo, Jonathan's administration had achieved minimum electricity generation capacity of 5,500 megawatts, despite unrelenting sabotage of oil and gas pipelines by vandals.


He noted that government was losing N120 million monthly and N1.5 billion yearly to repairs of vandalised pipelines.
Nebo stressed that deliberate vandalism of pipelines every two weeks resulted in the nation losing about 1,600 megawatts of electricity at a particular time.


The minister charged the incoming government of Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) to step up security surveillance of the petroleum pipelines in the country, as well as consider the digitalisation of the surveillance system.


"Four power plants have been completed and will be commissioned in the next couple of weeks; Sapele is one of them, Ihobor is another one. And hopefully and by the grace of God, we intend to do the commissioning very soon so that Nigerians will enjoy even more, the benefits of what the current administration has done in the power sector.


"There are literally hundreds of other projects that need to be commissioned. So very soon we are going into commissioning exercise" Nebo said.


Suswam said "The board resolved to commission some of the numerous projects under the NIPP programme. Those projects are to be commissioned in the subsequent weeks."


Apart from the new power plants, he stressed that the government had completed more transmission lines, but would not be able to complete some sales transactions because of some complications in the bid process and inadequate gas supply.


The inability to seal the sale transactions deals, Suswam explained, were not due to fear of the unknown when a new government comes on board next month.


Managing Director of the NDPHC, James Olotu, noted that the company's 2013-2014 statement of accounts was now ready for anyone or institution that wanted to know the financial status of NDPHC

Nigeria needs a digitalized electricity system...and technocrats in control of it

1) Dunno what you mean by "digitalized" electrical system. I assume is the SMART GRID. That said, prepaid meters have been distributed to allow you control your consumption.

2) A huge chunk of the power sector (distribution and generation) have been privatised. Transmission (TCN) Mgt has been outsourced to a competent Canadian Utility firm. If you're referring to technocrats at the Ministry of Power and NERC, then yes they're already being headed by technocrats, not politicians.

what i mean by digitalized is an intelligent and flexible electricity distribution and control system...imagine an electrical system where electricity can be shutdown in a single house without climbing a single pole to cut wires?? This is what i mean

Anything built on lies cannot last. "We're on top of the matter". Yet Boko Haram were killing in thousands. "We can sight where the girls are". Yet non of the Chibok girls has been rescued in 367 days. "Nigeria economy is the 4th fasted growing economy in the world"- prices of food stuff is on the increase.
Is it the unbelievable employment and fake inflationary statistics they kept rolling out everyday that is deluding on the state of the economy? Now, They're generating 5,500mw and I've not seen light for the past 72hrs. Even a blind man knows Nigeria had more light when 4,000mw was been generated.
My advice to GMB is to exclude liars like Iweala, Nebo, Okupe, Orubebe, Fani etc in his government. The likes of those could rock a Titanic. Such diplomatic lies defaces the image of a government instead of making the image. Well, they'll all be shown the door by May 29 - riddance to bad rubbish.

Don't say what u don't know. Installed capacity is above 8500MW.

The hitting of 5500MW was celebrated last week. Will look for d report. The power generation has been hovering between 3000 to 5000 MW. With more gas powered plant Nigeria can hit 20000MW in a year only when gas supply is constant and pipeline vandalism stops.

Most vandals don't know which pipeline carries Oil or gas.
Armies should be deployed there and their job will be to shoot anybody that come a mile near the pipelines
