What does a lawyer know about power anyway

no light? which area u base? for surulere this last few months, na 21hrs light we de see o

haterz perish

Consider the following.

In 1year you only added 400Mw
Therefore in 4years you will probably add up to 1,600Mw because there will always be sabotage

Factor in our present governments incompetence and poor economic decisions
We can then subtract 800mw from our anticipated 1600mw

So in 4years you only end up adding 800mw to the national grid as opposed to your 10,000Mw campaign promise.

Still more than what pdp added in 16yrs

Tell that to the marine, how does that affect my areas electricity supply, nil.u cant give what u lack.transmissions & distribution problems are pending,add 40,000Gigawatts a square peg can't work in a round hole.

the light don dey na? if no den rubbish.

tayebest:
Some people wont like this...



They prefer headlines like,
"Power drop to 0megawatt in the last two weeks"



Awon mofos

Which grid he add the mere 400mw?Na the rain wey dey fall dey bring little improvement of electricity abeg.

What I have found out about Nigeria is that we pontificate and criticize a lot without offering cogent possible solution and advice. Yes, Nigeria is a potential giant that is playing in the league of the dwarfs. Nigeria is a very difficult country to govern, whereas we posses all the necessary ingredients to be a powerful and prosperous nation but, we are handicapped by ethnic, tribal and selfish interests.

Anyone in government seriously working hard doing the right things for Nigeria soon find out that road
block is already there.

The worst are the citizens at large, we criticize and condemn but given the same opportunity we do the worst.

Let's try and encourage the little serious effort some of these ministers are making rather than rubbish them all together. To make a serious impact and to wake up this sleeping giant, it will take a benevolent dictator, you can't play nice to impact Nigeria, you must play tough, strait and be transparently honest.

It is only difficult to govern because some people are intent on managing a very diverse nation within a unitary framework instead of making use of a federal system.

The better states in Nigeria have learned to be progressive whilst the others are dependent on the resources of 9.

Sometimes I wonder after reading some reports. Is this really a news and we should celebrate it? Well you cannot give what you don't have. Why do I say so? Check the profile of most of the this administration's minister and see if it corresponds with their ministries. Does he know how electricity works? Talk of housing, what about that of ICT? We must get it right

As minister, his job I not to repair faulty turbines or carry out maintenance. His job is to manage the brilliant engineers in the ministry and maximize the use of the skills. If BRF can manage a complex state like Lagos then Managing 3 portfolio should be a piece of cake

I will forever respect Barth Nnaji and GEJ

When GEJ was able to beef up power to 6000MW inspite of sabotage and vandalism , some rocket scientist from one small corner of the country was ranting.

Instead of joining to condemn vandalism under GEJ then, they celebrated it
Instead of to help defeat Bokoharam, they bought pages of newspapers and blogs to amplify their activities. Buhari himself never attended any council of state meeting to proffer solutions.

Now the chicken have come home to roost, let them work their way out.

6000MW

Also speaking, the Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo, stressed: “We are pleading with those vandalising our gas pipelines to give Nigeria a chance to enjoy what this administration has done. Today we have 6,000mw generation capacity, if there is gas, and we can evacuate up to 5,500mw.”

Today we cannot even generate 3000MW not to talk of capacity to evacuate the power
Vandalism did not start today

Nigeria, in February 2016 achieved over 5000MW of electricity which was the highest in the history of this country.

Please tell us when your GEJ beefed up power to 6000MW.

Keneking:
In short, APC government has added only 1 MW technically since May 29, 2015

Useless government

...

...your maths teacher should be ashamed of u IPOB mechanic

WHEN THE RAIN STOP, WE WILL CONFIRM IF ACTUALY 300 MW WAS ADDED OR NOT

You must be living in a cave or forest for you to say no light.

braden101:
The entire Nigeria with population of around 180 million uses 4,000 megawatts of electricity .Do you know that no American city uses less than 20,000 mega watts? For example ,Portland ,Oregon with population of about 2 million uses 25,000 megawatts.
Nigeria needs at least 80,000 mega watts to be on path to developed and industrialized nation . If Nigeria couldn't have uninterrupted electricity during oil boom,then when? Oil is running out ,and the clock keeps ticking on the self proclaimed Giant of Africa. Do you think Nigeria would even be developed and industrialized even if 46,000 mega watts is added to Nigerian grid to make it 50,000 mega watts? This minister feels accomplished about 400 megawatts , then your guess about the future of Nigeria is as good as mine .

...whether na 100 or 300 my electricity supply has improved....IPOB haters like u can continue spewing your usual rubbish till kingdom comes.

Osyxcel:





How does this translate to adding 400MW? Something that will disappear when the rain stops

You can never get it can you?
If not for the maintenance carried out you will have rainfall but no 400MW additional power enjoyed today

Ah, oga fashola, una do well, meanwhile how do we send mama piss to prision and recover from this recession, i don tire for complains, i wan hear solution

Boko when did Nigeria reach 6000mega watt?
Barth nnaji was brought in by obasanjo and left good luck Jonathan's cabinet
His power plant was frustrated by the same good luck Jonathan's cabinet and was only resolved by Fashola a few months ago

You people dwell in ignorance

I read the news of the electricity situation getting better every week yet nothing is felt on ground. One can't tell me I'm the only citizen of this country this is happening to. Why are all the achievements I've heard of only on the pages of newspapers and never felt? If more people suffer the same fate as I am right now then who is the government trying to deceive using obviously paid writeups?

Do we have to break it down like A for apple, B for ball?

Power capacity is different from power generation, TCN never peaked more than 4000MW under Barth Nnaji or entire PDP rule.

Today the theoretical capacity is over 8000MW

You people have become economic experts
Phcn was a national asset you people sold it where is it now? We are even paying the people you sold it too
Where is Nigeria airways
Why did we sell Nitel to the chairman of Skye bank who incidentally was the highest donor to good luck Jonathan's campaign and bought 2 of the power companies Ibadan yola disco....

You people think Nigerians are fools like I said we may not always like the president but certainly Nigeria will never go back to the hands of those who raped it

malton:


Hypocrite!

You know about South Africa but are always on the defense when it pertains to GEJ. How many megawatts did he add? And where did you see the celebration?

At least, it will never be said that they didn't do anything at all about the situation. You're always quick to spit fire without proper reasoning. Yikes!

He has added nothing just semantics. What is our national installed capacity on May 29th 2015 and what is it now? That is how you should start your narration.

Fashola: How We Achieved More Power for National Grid Despite Sabotage

... Pls we don't want to know after all to have a stable power supply" is not a rocket science "as claimed by you. This is not the time for blowing ones trumpet. Nigerians want 24/7 power supply. As at today we are not yet there.

#StablePowerSupplyIsNotARocketScience

This land is not for sale, beware of 419, el-rufai and Bola Tinubu.............

Dottore:
Where's the 400mw. In Aisha's kitchen?

No!! Na only 50mw dey there!!

100mw dey presidential villa, 50mw dey House of Senate, 50mw dey house of Reps.

The remaining 150mw dey bourdillion road!!

is my eye deceiving me?.. it that 400(hundred) or 4000(thousand)?

these people don't have any sense of shame walai.
a whole minister is boasting of 400 MW in foreign land?
our problem is worse than previously thought

Ha!...funny guy!... let's give him a medal for adding 400 Mw to the grid!...it made a noticeable improvement nationally! Tomorrow the one in charge of national emergencies may announce his agency took 4000 barrels of water out of the ocean and we are now safe from coastal flooding.

......
This is what u get when u put square pegs in round holes. Mr Fashola is a lawyer so I don't blame him when he sees 400 MW as a monumental achievement and enough to provide uninterrupted electricity for years

I did a research for a friend recently and I discovered that what we generate in terms of electricity from all the modes available in Nigeria isnt up to what is produced using solar alone in America in terms of MW. And our minister of power isn't ashamed to say we have increased power generation by 400 mw. This is what only one solar station in california produces.

The government has to encourage private investment in the power sector and task them with generation of electricity from renewables especially and also ensure the current structure of power generation and distribution functions effectively.

Debts owed gencos must be paid in order to enable them generate the much they can the resources available right now while transmission and distribution must improve in order to cover the national electricity grid.

When the current system works effectively, it will be easy to convice investors to come in and invest their hard-earned money, especially in renewables
