Current rating for top 100 electricity producers in the world shows Nigeria 4th in Africa, 70th in the world. more work needed to reach top 5 in the world and from the history of the nation in that ranking it took them over 30 years of consistent and articulated plan to reach that peak.

Hmmmmm, it took them 30 years indeed! This one is a bad prayer. Op, so your stable light will be around 2045, that is if by then another complain didn't come up.

This junk implies it was either fabricated or African should be eliminated from the surface of the earth if Nigeria currently generating between 2 to 3KW of electricity is 4th in Africa in the above ratings!!! Chikena
Other African countries don't have to generate much cos they're small, much smaller than Nigeria in size and population. Nigeria on the other hand has a large population and should therefore produce more electricity for its large population. That's why Angola, Botswana and even Cameron generate more electricity per capita than Nigeria.

PDP no go kie person. PDP deceiving d world wit fake statistics supplied by d IMF/World bank stooge & d de facto president of Nigeria, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala since 1999.
Since PHCN was shared between d cabal of PDP sponsors, electricity supply has worsened.
Come Valentines day, we ar voting dis clowns out of power.

[size=16pt] We produce about same as puerto rico which has less than 4% of Nigerian population [/size]. Nigeria is maybe a couple of tens of million people less than Brazil in population and generates only 4% of Brazil's produce.

It is shameful. It is a F minus scorecard.

This is what people do when they want to bamboozle with fake statistics 0- the same as when government keeps shouting the biggest economy stuff.

Now truly we are 4th in Africa and 70th in the world, however what should matter to Nigerians is what is available to shared to Nigerians for use in their homes, businesses and resorts. Once we check this, it show a very abysmal performance.

Once you put the production in relation to the population of Nigeria, the data shows clearly how much of a cesspit we are in.

Here is the same data based on Per-Capita - We are number 185 in the world!

We are 70th in generation accoundint to the statistic
But, what is more productive is the energy consumption

That's what the consumer knows
What % of energy did get to the end user
And Nigeria is ranked

185th out of 214!!!

War torn countries like Libya, Syria, and Iraq are above us yet some people wanna brag about this.

Let me do a little research about the electricity supply "per capita" and see where Nigeria stands!! I have no doubt in my mind we'd be the worst!!

Edit.

Booooo!!!! I said it!! Terrible!! cheesy

185th out of 214!!!
106KWh when a country like China with a population of over 2billion is providing its citizens over 11,000KWh per capita!!

www.indexmundi.com/g/r.aspx?v=81000

Shame on our leaders!

The only reason why some Nigerians celebrate news like this is because they are simply ignorant. The best way to assess things like this is to look at them from a "per capita" stand point. I guess not too many people understand what this means. cheesy
Succinctly put, but your problem is that most Nigerians will not understand you.. We have been so under-educated that common sense seems like Rocket science..

What is Gej doing with our coals sided away in Enugu? Only for him to use his dullard brain and embezzling oil money that is even needed to fund power generation companies. How daft can a president be? They show us substandard trains as development, now see what south africa that is just here is doing with coal.

its was a mistake...electricity in Nigeria is poor
who told you its not poor with those figures... some countires with just 20 million population generates 100s , we just 20 .. GEJ is doing everything to improve this esp the gas turbines. if only federal xter will allow it grow...they should allow states to generate and distribute and send the excess to the grid

He has been there 6 years now if what you say is true there must be some sign at least he must be half way to his target. Has the electricity situation improved at all since he has been there,by what percentage This is a very simple question Not just GEJ but PDP
