**Ghana’s President visits Jonathan**

A few days after his election as Ghana’s new leader, John Dramani Mahama has made his first international trip and he headed to Abuja for a meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa.
Briefing state house correspondents after the meeting, the Ghanaian President said while on his way to Equatorial Guinea for the Conference of African Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) Group of States meeting, he decided to call on the Nigerian President topay respect to President Jonathan considering the relations between Ghana and Nigeria.
He said that after his successful election it has become imperative that he visited Nigeria first.
President Mahama sought for Nigeria’s resuscitation of the West African pipeline to enable Ghana use the Nigerian gas for its power generation, saying “I took the opportunity of the visit to discuss with him (President Jonathan) the issue of West Africa Gas Pipeline. As you are aware, it got broken and there wasan accident when they were trying to activate it.” “So, I want President
Jonathan to use his influence to get the pipelineback into operation as soonas possible so that Ghana can continue to receive Nigerian gas to power our electricity generation.” He also condole President Jonathan on the death of his younger brother saying that he missed the funeral which took place on the dayof the elections in Ghana.

Sharp guy.....since we cant make proper use of our gas for electricity generation, i guess he wants to show us how.

A sharp presido and a clueless one, guess who's the clueless?

2nd yes'ir8)

So we dont need our gas is that what our president is tellin us

At Ikot Abasa LGA in Akwa Ibom state, th earstwhile ALSCON uses gas for its electricity generation. They also supply electricity to the host LGA. They have had uninterupted power for the past 10yrs. We just need a government with a sincere policy and drive to implement such on a wider scale.
