Prof Corruption:
The power station project started in March 2005. Seven turbine units have now been built, and the eighth is under construction. The two units that are now operating can produce up to 84,000 kilowatts of power per annum. The remaining six units are expected to start generating electricity around the end of this year.

http://english.cri.cn/4026/2007/08/01/167@256097.htm

Am sure by your screams, the end of this year in your referenced article was 2013 . . . .

Let us all commend OBJ for ensuring this plant was completed in the predefined stipulated time

See how you shot yourself on the foot

Sincere 9gerian: The haters will soon come and tell us to give credit to Lord Lugard for initiating the project and Pa Awolowo for conceiving the idea.

I wonder who will now take credit for the Ajaokuta Steel Complex that has been uncompleted for decades and presently moribund? Nobody. But when GEJ manages to complete it, haters will bring up 100GB files to show how the project was started by Lord Lugard in 1914.

Now these projects are all getting the desired attention and coming to life. The credit totally goes to GEJ. Its like giving credit to Bush for the killing of Osama Bin Laden. He chased Osama for over 7 years and a lot of the information Obama used came from Bush era. But do you see anyone give the credit to Bush?
When you talk about Nigeria, try to do everyone a favor and leave the U.S out of it. Dont pretend like you know how things work here or how policies are pursued and/or implemented. Bush, Obama etc they work for country. You, your leaders, GEJ, Yar'Adua, OBJ.. they work for "self".

Freaking hypocrite, when they want to buttress their points they use America as an example. Why dont you use the American example and have your GEJ paying for his own meals from his pocket? Or have his wife get her newly minted Double Ds from her own pocket? Tell him to "give a damn" and declare his assets like Obama. Tell him to disassociate himself from criminals like Obama would and stop referring to them as his "Fathers" and "Beneficiaries" . Sycophants, you can never hear the truth emanating from their vocal chords.

The improvement in power sector has nothing to do with Barth Nnaji or GEJ, the whole thing was conceptualized by Obasanjo administration.
In other words, they are projects initiated by Obasanjo administration now coming to fruition this year. It has nothing to do with policies of GEJ's administration.

There is no chance in hell that a clueless GEJ would conceptualize such a thing. He would rather work to appoint his wife as a permanent secretary in absentia or freely donate 4 billion naira of state resources to fund the illegal madam umblela missions.

You keep on telling us that GEJ should not be blamed for the problems of Nigeria as they were already there before he became president and i agree with that sentiment but won't it be proper to acknowledge who started the project?

You always call APC supporters hypocrite but your behavior doesn't prove you are any better
My friend, there's no sentiment here. OBJ lead this country for 8 SOLID YEARS. When he was elected in 1999, epileptic power supply was our major problem. If he couldn't complete the building of new power plants within 8yrs, then he deserves no commendation. It means that during those 8yrs he got his priorities WRONG. 8yrs is not 8days.

If GEJ cannot complete the 2nd Niger Bridge in 8yrs, then the president that comes and complete it will take all the credit. Because, a govt that could not complete a project in 8yrs, may as well not complete that project in 20yrs time if allowed to stay put.

Its not that there should be no continuity in govt, but within 8yrs, the OBJ govt should have been able to COMPLETE and commission many of those plants.

If I may ask, who takes credit for the uncompleted and moribund Ajaokuta steel complex?

What's funny is that A LOT, and I mean all them critics have criticized GEJ did not fix electricity, it's same people that won't give him credit now that power plants are coming online.

Again, if GEJ abandoned the project, will you still blame GEJ or past administration?

OBJ left six years ago after ruling for. Years. He had 8 years to fix power. Are you saying 8 years is too short to fix power? He failed, simple! He deserves no credit. I can give him credit for Telecoms reform. But he failed in the power sector. A massive failure there. Yaradua failed even more. There was no single progress for 3 years. Even the road map OBJ passed was abandoned by Yaradua. He spent his time reversing OBJ's policies.

Now these projects are all getting the desired attention and coming to life. The credit totally goes to GEJ. Its like giving credit to Bush for the killing of Osama Bin Laden.

Only in Nigeria you will see hypocrites trying to do that because they hate GEJ just because he is not a Yoruba or Hausa man. Its people like you that betrayed us and allowed them to collect 83% of our oil blocks.
Well thats the way they blame Obama for their economic problems. I'm all for giving all the praise to GEJ but then when i blame him for anything don't give me the " this started before GEJ bla bla"

When you see some comments, its pretty obvious that some folks would rather Nigeria stays in darkness than have GEJ fix power for the simple reason that they don't want him to get any credits.

GEJ haters are afraid of electricity being fixed. Left to them, Jonathan should not fix Nigeria because their bitterness and hatred would have no more channels.

When Jonathan commissions power plants, they say noooo, its OBJ or there is still no light!
When Jonathan fixes roads, they ask how much was spent on it or how long did it take or cant we get 12 lanes.
When Jonathan supports entrepreneurship through excellent programs like YOUWIN, they say where is the power to run the business.
When Jonathan revamps the rail network, they say the trains are outdated or we need high speed rails.
When Jonathan is expanding the economy through agriculture, they are asking whether na Cassava bread we go chop?
When Jonathan is fixing all the airports, they refer us to European and American airports saying why are they not as good??

The same OBJ who had 8 years to fix power but didn't add 1 MW to the grid should now take credit when GEJ with just 2 years has added more than 3000MW.
The same OBJ who had 8 years but didn't as little as paint the toilets in any airport is now better than GEJ who in 2 yrs has revamped 11 airports.
I don't want to compare OBJ with Jonathan, because it would make OBJ look like a total failure which I don't think he was. So let me stop here.

Fashola has had six years to revamp Lagos infrastructure and yet till today he hasn't completed one single mega project. One, Just one. Even bad Governors like Uduaghan have completed whole airports, but I can't credit Fashola with any single project above say N10 billion. All the large projects he has taken upon are still in their infancy or out-rightly abandoned with no hope in sight. The Lagos Badagry expressway- nothing! The light rail project- nothing! Lekki Epe expressway- incomplete! Lekki free trade zone- empty! Eko Atlantic- sand! Fourth mainland bridge- Dreamland! Tejuosho market- abandoned! One single major porojeeect- I can't find any!! Yet the man has had 6 good years! Six yeaearrrs!!! Yet ACN/APC fellas want us to believe that he is some kind of infallible creature!

These folks want Jonathan's trains to look like the ones in Dubai and Japan yet its OK when Fashola's BRT buses look like dinghis from Bangladesh.
They want Jonathan's airports to look like Schipol, but Fashola is performing when he builds schools looking like the prisons of Brazil!
When LASU students protest, they students are bad. When UNIABUJA students protest, the government is bad.

I like Fashola and I respect him because he is building good institutions and systems that would make Lagos function. But if you ask me, his 6 years and $30 billion dollars in budgets are not seen anywhere in Lagos! The city is still a dumpsite and one of the most uninhabitable enclaves on the face of the planet!

Whether we like it or not, Jonathan would fix power! Nigerians would appreciate it. If 24hrs light comes to your neigbourhood before 2015 and you feel angry at the progress Nigeria has made, you can as well disconnect from the grid and make use of generators. If you don't like the remodelled airpots, go by road. If the roads are too smooth for you, please buy Cortina and trekk to your destination.
Nigeria would progress whether you like it or hate it and the transformation has started albeit slowly!!!!

This your thinking is what encourages so many abandoned projects all over the country because some govt officials knowing that they will be denied the credit due them after completing projects initiated by previous administration prefer to start a new one just to take the credit. If OBJ could not complete these projects in 8yrs why should I not praise GEJ for completeing it in 3yrs?
