Goke7:
One of the reason I voted for PMB is to reverse the privatization of phcn which was a scam, this is where I will begin to oppose PMB if the damn privatization thing lingers throughout his tenure. The privatization of Phcn was used by the pdp to share to their cronies just like dasukigate. Nonsense.

But Tinubu was the greatest beneficiary of that privatization and I don't remember him being a PDP man or Jonathan's crony

oduastates:
Most of those who bought those power companies have no clue . They do not have investible capital ,no technical know-how and no history in the power industry . If they were viable , the commissioning of power plants and other installations will be in the news everyday .
Remember when GSM licenses were granted ?
GSM were building something everyday of the week.
It is simply the usual sharing of government property. create dummy firm to extract rents from the government and the people .

Oga, stop pretending like you understand the issue with electricity in Nigeria because you and you dullard president don't!

The problem is Buhari, his northern brothers and the petroleum industry bill. GEJ commissioned power plants and we have been building them since OBJ's administration. Have you asked yourself why despite having more power plants, power generation (which is the biggest problem) has not improved?

7 of the 11 new power plants were designed to be powered by gas. The non-passage of the PIB is stalling investment in gas pipelines to bring gas to the plants because the northern part of the country (Buhari's kinsmen) has vowed to make sure the PIB does not see the light of the day because it would give more control of petroleum resources to the state among other things. So those power plants are just lying idle and contributing nothing to the national grid as of today. As long as investors continue to wait on the government to put a guiding policy in place for the oil and gas industry, any major project undertaken by any private investor is a big risk!

Of course, Buhari is spewing all the rubbish in the OP's post because he knows that many Nigerians are not informed and are lazy to do a simple research. The privatization of the sector by GEJ is the biggest boost any government has given to that sector.

Sincere4u:
Abeg PMB the privatisation has nothing at all to do with public interest.
Distribution companies are criminals, they wrecked me on several fronts. Criminals!. That's what they are.

Distribution company? Hear yourself? How is it their problem to ration 1,000 - 1,500 MW of electricity to 170 million Nigerians? Do you know that the government is still in charge of generation? Or can't you tell the difference between generation and distribution?

Goke7:


You are ignored, thanks

Smart move.


Going back and forth with these trolls is nothing but torture..

LordAdam:


Sharrap!

When the power improved in the first few months of this administration, who benefited? Was it not the public?

The major problem now is generation and the generation part of the electricity company is still majorly run by the government except for a few gencos like Shiroro dam. So, ask Buhari and Fashola why the cannot generate enough power for the discos to distribute.

Jor shift. People dey discuss power problem, you carry yourself kon sitdon for thread.

-Lord

You are wrong, generation is not run by government the GENCOs were equally privatised leaving only the transmission for the government which the previous government also contracted out to MANITOBA ELECTRIC under a management contract. Always get your facts right.

But we have a super Minister for that sector in the person of Fashola. He has been so quite of late unlike 2014/2015 when he rant at anything presidency.

Not all the generation facilities are privatized, I did say some of them were sold to gencos like the Shiroro dam. Get your facts right.

My able comrade, experience from past administration as shown that our elite are either inresponsible or lack political will to do anything right. Therefore, the the privatisation is still the best way to go.


Like I always advocate, all what the government should put in place is a strong and structure and institutions to check mate the activities of the discos

The information available to Nigerians was that the GENCOs & DISCOs were totally privatised. The privatisation was done over several months in 2013 and so you are getting your facts enrirely wrong. The government did not privatise TRANSMISSION but sold the entirety of the Generating companies & Distribution companies, that was not done in secrecy and the technical panel was chaired by Atedo Peterside. Don't misinform the public and if you have a contrary view pkease expansiate appropriately particularly as touching the GENCOs. Good morning

That is the information your simpleton mind can find.

Nigeria has 23 grid-connecting power generating plants with a combined total installed capacity of 10,396.0 MW and available capacity of 6,056 MW. http://www.mondaq.com/Nigeria/x/292662/Oil+Gas+Electricity/A+Guide+to

Of this number, only 5 were privatized as at 2013 to the GENCOS. http://www.nigeriapowerreform.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=755:fg-moves-to-conclude-sale-of-15-gencos-discos&catid=36&Itemid=336

Below is a list of those plants:

1. Geregu Plant I
2. Kainji Plant
3. Shiroro Plant
4. Ughelli Plant
5. Sapele Plant

Between then and now Afam Plant in Abia state has been sold. You can find more of those sold here -- http://www.nercng.org/index.php/industry-operators/licensing-procedures/licencees.

The sale of the 10 NIPP Gencos also started at around 2013 and was recently completed.

It's difficult to gauge the current stage of the privatization process but as at May 2015 we were far into the second phase as the first phase was completed in November, 2013.

Mr. Man, watch your tongue and do not mislead the public.

The Thermal GENCOS are facing hell because of the recurrent gas pipelines vandalization. The government cannot guarantee consistency of the gas supply and are currently doing little or nothing about it. But if it is to draft army personnels to look for Tompolo, they would be able to.

So when I say Buhari and Fashola should be blamed for the depressing power generation I know what I am talking about. The Hydro Plants only have an available capacity of 1,060 MW. While the Thermal Plants have a combined available capacity of 4,996 MW. You do the maths. Between the plants still run by the government and the inability of the government to protect gas pipelines, the federal government shares the bulk of the blame for the current power crisis.

authority2006:
Go school, you no go gree. Buhari wasn't referring to the private firms that bought power sector, he was referring to the government that sold it. Chai!

I have certificate

Buhari please resign.

Well..ladies and gentlemen our president is still saying same thing he's been saying since may 29th (Blaming d past governments) LOL -

buhari is confuse and don't know wat to do again, I think he needs help but who will help this bad eggs of APC ??

Why does PMB keep talking to Nigerians like we are fools. the issue with the power sector isn't about privatization but about efficiency. The privatization of the sector has already began and should be completed, what they should worry about is power generation and that starts by protecting the gas lines, if the govt cant do this then we will continue hammering on the same issue.

The generating companies are not the ones asking me to pay for darkness at extreme costs.
Your comment is absolutely out of point as I have no direct business with GENCOs.

I don't share that silly ideology. If you do not respect yourself, I wouldn't respect you. Now look at you stupidly exchanging words when you are supposedly old enough to be someone's great grand pa and even president. Clearly you reason and talk like a frustrated Junior WAEC student.

I'll take the high road here. If I wanted to commit suicide, I'll fall to your IQ level. No point saying more to a chimp.

This is my last reply to you. Swerve!!!
