The Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola,
has said there was a need for uncommon thinking
to end the power challenge battling the country.
He warned that if Nigeria did not get Power right,
there was no way it could achieve development in
other sectors of the economy.
Fashola spoke at an interactive business session
with members of the Organised Private Sector at
the Lekki Free Zone, according to report from The
Punch
“We know that if the power sector does well the
state will do well and the people will benefit,” he
said.
He said his administration was working to achieve
the commitments it made at the Ehingbeti Summit
2014 about energising the state.
He said, “We spent over two hours at the Monday
Executive Council meeting deliberating on Nuclear
Energy for the state and how it could be deployed
in use in the state. That shows you we intend to
address issues of Power. We sat down with one of
the foremost experts, a Nigerian, who took us
through all the protocols that are needed for
establishing it.
“In less than three years we can establish it,
especially when we need not do distribution, but
places like the Lekki Free Zone can have the
Nuclear Power between 15 and 24 months.”
The Commissioner for Commerce and Industry,
Mrs. Olusola Oworu, said the meeting was
established to articulate the problems of the private
sector with a view to offering solutions to them.
She said, “The meeting was held because the
government is interested in knowing the problems
of the private sector operators.
“If we do not want to hear about where the shoe
pinches and where it hurts and what we can do
about it, we will not have this kind of open and
expansive interaction and meeting.”
Present at the occasion were the Special Adviser
on Commerce and Industry, Mr. Seye Oladejo,
Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Commerce and
Industry, Mr. Wale Raji, Executive Chairman, Lagos
State Internal Revenue Service, Mr. Tunde Fowler,
Chairman Lekki Free Zone, Mr. Olusegun Jawando,
Managing Director Lekki Free Zone, Mr. Ding
Yonghua, Head of Chinese Chancery in Lagos, Mr.
Liu Kan, captains of industries, stakeholders and
other state government officials.

the town and state is already a wasteland full of APC muslim fanatics. If a reactor meltdown occurs it will bar the useless state from the rest of the world for at least a thousand years.

dont be a daft silly w@nker.... musiwa is outright insane.

Propaganda , a state cannot finance nuclear power
Also fashola lacks understanding to want to out it in Lekki

musiwa95: It shows fashola lack understand of electricity. a nuclear power plant in a place like that will kill millions of life.

So Otunba musiwa can type a meaningful sentence like this ?

Idrismusty97: I think you are the illiterate here. Read the post again as you said.

I tire for that guy oh please pick the information you want if you don't understand what he is saying ask wtf with this professor of English self.

I want to believe Fashola was quoted out of context.

bigtt76: Abeg make dem tell us so we can jejely move before the deployment o! Ar no wan hear say flood don over take Nuclear Power station after wan yeye rain so

Eko o ni baje oo

This man makes me laugh sometimes with his funny ideas.

Fashola, 3x !!!! If ya mama born you well, make you let this Nuclear power ting remain as a concept. Ordinary small rain wey cause major flood dey kill hundreds, how una go take manage nuclear accident or meltdown.

Accident don happen for USA, Russia, and other big big countries, how you take tink say e no go happen for Lagos?

I like Fashola's big thinking as an administrator. History has shown us that new innovation arise from someone doing something that is stupid according to the public. For safety reason i think Lagos is too populated for this kind of project and i don't think Lagos state government can fund this project.

The question is, are we ripe enough to manage such technology, or to curtail the danger involve?

aljharem: Propaganda , a state cannot finance nuclear power

State is not the only source of money for such projects and I don't see where he opined anything about Lagos state financing anything..

Ease up on the bitterness and pay more attention to reading and comprehension..

When are you going to be ready?

How are you going to finish a 100 miles journey without taking the first step..?

This is the problem with the black man and why they are still under developed. You have no faith in yourself, you defeat yourself even before you star anything, you see yourself weak and incompetent, you think you can not aspire to reach any great and positive level, you are sadly content at our miserable, backward and under developed existence..

Lucky for Oyinbo people, they are where they are today because they didn't and still don't have they deplorable and self defeatist Can't Do Mentality.

Hmmm Lasgidi... I have a lot on my mind about this, but first, abeg who go buy my houses for Lagos oo? Make I just jejerly vacate the state before the Nuclear Power thingy...
We never try manage hydro and Hydro carbon fired up power plants finish na this one.
Well, I trust FG, they won't grant the approval for such. Fashola has just wasted 2 hours of the EXCO's time.
Hmmm, Eko o' ni ogbanje oooooo
