This is why we need change from the status quo,we can't continue to run a country like this. Look at the amount PDP spent in 16 years and the result . Is this a goverment that deserves a re-election? Vote Mohammed Buhari for change,he might not be perfect,but he's the better alternative.

If this plant was commissioned 6 years ago then we have Yaradua to blame, don't you think?

I suspect that the late ex-president would be in APC consorting with Buhari if he were alive today but I may be wrong.

Anyway...how much was spent on Electricity during Buhari's tenure? How much electricity was made available to the average Nigerian at the time?

Why do you PDP members always want me to do reasearch for you. In 8 years Obasanjo spent $16 billion on Power which was embezzled by Liyel Imoke current Governor of Cross River State,Olusegun Agagu etc while under Yardua and Goodluck Jonathan $19.45 was spent on power. So in total $35.45 was spent by Nigera.PDP members are shameless thieves because they have a President that allows free looting without any consequence.

you are the fool here bro. Its simple, if a book is sold for $10 on amazon, will a buyer from China pay a different amount in dollars less than the one in Nigeria?
The price is set, and the rest depends on how much it is in ur local currency.

By Nigerian standards, these Chinese are miracle workers....
See another example:


LRNZH:
.
Longtan Dam and Hydropower Station - Guangxi, China (Cost: $4.2 Billion US)
Longtan Dam is a large roller-compacted concrete (RCC) gravity dam on the Hongshui River in Tian'e County of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, a tributary of the Xi River and the Pearl River. The dam is 216.2 m (709.3 ft) high and 849 m (2,785 ft) long; it is the tallest of its type in the world. The dam is intended for hydroelectric power production, flood control and navigation. The dam contains seven surface spillways, two bottom outlets and an underground power station. The installed electric power generation capacity of the dam is 6,426MW.

I learnt something from Shekarau during one of the 2011 presidential debates: "Sincerity of Purpose".
If a government is purposeful, it will show.
35 Billion Dollars gone. Poof. Just like that.

If you are blaming PDP

It means you see all PDP members having one mind.


If I follow your logic

Can you explain why GEJ and OBJ are quarreling.?



Also tell us how much GEJ has spent and the amount of electricity generated

Tell us how much Yaradua spent and the amount of electricity generated

Tell us how much Obj spent and the amount of electricity generated




So that we can know the real thief.

PDP has ruined Nigeria completely, the rate of looting with impunity is unprecedented. Nigeria has had money in the last 16year than any other time in history. This is the only country in the world that a president could say stealing is not corruption.

PDP or OBJ

To me PDP is a party made of different personalities


So dont judge GEJ based on OBJ's action

http://www.businessinsider.com/big-dam-resources-2014-8

Is Obasanjo an ally of APC or Nah?

Would Yaradua be in the company of APC if he were alive?

What people fail to realize is that the Nigerian party system, unlike that in America, has no ideology.

People decamp easily from one party to the other until the divisive party lines blur and the political class remain one and the same.

In other words, there is nothing PDP is doing that will be surmounted by APC.

In fact, I WANT APC TO WIN and will vote for Buhari for this reason....just to prove this point.

My regret though is that freedom of the press in condemning Buhari (as they are definitely going to want to do because he is another failure in the making), would be very much restricted.


If Nairaland still stands in 4 years we will be here having the last laugh.

OP you're crying with me on this matter of arrested development in Nigeria by PDP for 16 years.

35 plus Billion US dollars embezzled and a TANoid is blabbing about exchange rate.
When Nigerians buy the same Range Rovers, G Class, Phantoms, Private Jets as the Chinese they forget about exchange rate.

I did'nt even want to respond to them,I was shocked at the stupidity of them using the exchange rate to explain the corruption under PDP. Look at this thread I posted the House committee report on how the PDP spent $16 billion under OBJ you will weep when you read the report on the massive corruption from over invoiceing by 1000%, duplicated projects,gave contracts to unregistered companies. Liyel Imoke,Olusegun Agagu and some indiviuals and corporate bodies were exposed to have raped this country to death,they are corrupt pschopaths

The most stupid people in the world are those supporting the PDP.

Imagine someone trying to distinguish JonaTAN from OBJ?
Didn't they rule under same party?
Whether na OBJ or YarAdua or JonaTAN, they are all children of same useless mother. The worst, most corrupt political party in the world.

No one can distinguish JonaTAN from his predecessors, Nigerians were fooled into saying we are voting JonaTAN and not PDP not knowing JonaTAN was the worst of the lot.

Chinese have very poor labour policies.
They could have used children who are paid peanuts in some aspects of the projects, while the other workers are paid like slaves.
Modern slavery exists in China.

So is that the main reason why we get 2,500 MW for $35Billion
and the Chinese get 20,000 MW for $25Billion?

Are you implying labour costs are the major cash sink in power projects enough to cause 100 fold difference in impact on wattage of power produced?

I feel you people did'nt understand the point I was trying to get across. With all the money spent on Powe generation after 16 years of PDP why are we only generating 3500MW. It's because of the massive corruption by the PDP who want us to stay in darkness while Ghana enjoys light.

I just took another look at the figures, I thought is was the same 2500 MW for both countries.
There could be a lot of reasons for that apart from the labour issues I already mentioned.
The fact that that we have to import more of the needed materials while China might not import at all, they have some of the basic infrastructure on ground already, while we build from scratch.
This is just to show why power projects in Nigeria could be more expensive than in China, but the figures you guys gave are false.
