[size=18pt]The most populous nation in Africa with over 160 million people is generating only 4,237mw, while South Africa with 58 million people generates 45,000MW.

These Nigerian ministers are CLOWNS. grin[/size]

Exactly! As we generate more, demand will increase from manufacturers and institutions that were running on 24 hours generators. Once these guys hook up, we will be back to square one.

The only sustainable way is a clean and fair privatization process.

Electricity generation has improved greatly nationwide, there are likelihood that certain regions may not witness the optimal improvements due to transformer and related hiccups. These are relatively distribution issues, certainly the private firms that will take over distribution will address those areas. If you are pessimist about Nigeria, get a fvcking VISA and go to Puerto Rico. And for those living abroad on food stamps, shut the fvck up and focus on your slave mentality.

livapul86: I am no GEJ sycophant but in all honesty the improvement in Power supply in my part of Festac in Lagos is nothing short of amazing. Since Last week Sunday, I can authoritatively say that the total number of hours I have been without power supply isn't more than 3 hours. I have actually gone TWO whole days without any single blink. Please they should continue with whatever they're doing cos it is clearly WORKING.
Dude, 2 DAYS?!

Are you guys serious?!

In over 20somthn+ yrs I've witnessed, maybe, 2-3 power outages and you guys are praising 2 days, 1 week, 3 months or wateva of 12hr Electricity?!

Why would your Govt want to work when they know you all are satisfied with mediocrity?!

sad

if past leaders have tried to add 1500mw to the grid each year prior to now, do you know how much we will be talking of by now?

Yes, and if you have poor supply in your district, pray that the private companies take over distribution very soon. But dont focus on Government doing everything for you, register a power company and find technical partners. There is massive opportunity for you in the sector.

Lets hear a loud "AMEN" for this wonderful sister up there.

Its not an Anti-Corrption prayer so why didn't anyone say "Amen"?!

Anyways sha, at least now we have enough light to bake cassava bread. In 2014 GEJ will come back to tell us why we deserve to re-elect him and you will becus na light una need. In 2016, they will fix the Roads and Rails. (by this time most of the world must have started using Jet packs and flying cars, but not to worry na Naija now, better late than never, abi?). Then in 2018, as we think he's finally gonna carry his bag and go back to Otueke with his Billions of Dollars, he will ask that y'all to reelect him for a "Single Term-7yr Tenure"--- by this time extreme poverty woulda made even his tribalistic supporters wild eyed and they probably have turned cannibal, eating themselves and what not.....

Ok, lemme stop. Sha, you get the picture!

Impeach that dummy now! The word is "Impeachment" and you use it NOW!!! Why are you guys satisfied with mediocrity?!

Halleluyah! My brother!! Hallaaaaaaaaluyah!!



Now let all who have seen the light come out!

Come on out mah people! Coooome on out and testify!!!

If GEJ's been good to you! Come on out testify!

If you have 2 gallons of petrol in your garage, come out. . .come out! I say testify!!

You have enjoyed 20hrs of light! Come on here baby! Let the people see you!

Yea, PHCN really messed the system up. Millions of transformers are as old as the village primary school. Once privatization is complete, the companies have to make profict, so they will install new transformations to distribute energy, cos without energy, the smart card wont run, and they wont make money. Its simple business acumen.

sisi,
I wish you would stop being sarcastic.
There has been a tremendous improvement in power generation in this country.
If any one tells you otherwise the person is a liar.
Some areas may not yet be experiencing this improvement,but what they will not tell you because they want to practice mischief is that their area has no light/power because of transformer or transmission problems.Gradually if the government keeps it up the improvement will spread to all parts of the country.
When we as citizens see a genuine effort at improving power generation we need to say it out in the same way we have criticized the government in the past.
Where I live I have had nothing less than 18-20 hours of power a day for the last couple of weeks.If it was not so trust me I would say it as it is.
Re: There Will Be No More Power Outages – FG by Greatken007(m): 6:03pm On Aug 12, 2012
Only FOOL mock his own country,It is very obvious that the power has improved greatly,All Anglican youth who were in Warri from tuesday to sunday can also testify to this,i am back to Asaba and since morning the light have not blink.You dont expect to have light when your transformer is nt in good shape,stop vandals,report theft and u wil see results,Nigeria is getting better.
