The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, has given an assurance that the 10,000 megawatts of electricity in three years promised by President Muhammadu Buhari earlier in the month will be actualised. He added that the energy crisis facing the country would soon be a thing of the past, saying one of the country’s power plants located at Gbarain in Bayelsa State, which was close to completion, was fired the previous night for pre-commissioning tests. Speaking at the resolution of a three-year dispute between Enugu Electricity Distribution Company and Aba Power Limited, which had stalled the completion of a 141MW power project for the area, the minister said the resolution and the recovery of four turbines that were down would ensure that the power challenge facing the country could be overcome. A statement by the Special Adviser to the Minister on Communications, Hakeem Bello, on Friday quoted the Minister as saying apart from showing that distribution companies could work together, the development would also be of great benefit to traders in the area and boost ‘Made in Nigeria’ goods, which the area is known for. He said, “We had some outages on our turbines in Jebba but l am happy to inform you that three of the four have been put back into operation and that there is again stability in the system. The power coming into the country is not enough and how do you share what is not enough, it is not possible, so what we need to do is generate more power. “The 200 megawatts coming from Aba is very important and it is good news for the market. “The first turbine is on and is being synchronised and that is what we are saying and with incremental power we will achieve the target set by Mr. President in his speech last week.” While thanking former Head of State, Gen. Abdusalami Abubakar, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Mr. Adetokunbo Kayode, Prof. Bart Nnaji, among others, for the roles they played in making the resolution possible, the minister said time had come for everyone to work together for the betterment of the power sector. http://www.punchng.com/well-deliver-10000-mw-target-fashola-says/ 10 Likes 1 Share

You voted for change and change you will get. Billie Jean King a renowned female tennis player who fought for equal pay at the U.S made this statement yesterday on amanpour, she stated that [/b]"change is slow and painful" [b] so I advise that we exercise patience and pray for our country instead of constant curse. In my thoughts I always wonder why mr GEJ is so quiet and I concluded that he might be regretting all his actions and the situation he left Nigeria aided by the sycophants he surrounded himself. Also the last meeting he had with Burahi he give out names of his formal aids. Looking at the circumstances, after the meeting the next day efcc and dss began arresting same. Finally, we are our problem in this country, but we are so quick to blame the government. Some examples 1. People throw dirty on the road then blame government why can't they pay lawma a mechanism government put in place to eradicate waste. 2. a man channelled his fish pond waste water to the main road at nkpolu in port harcourt. His act spoilt the road completely with no remorse until people traced the water on early morning to his house. He started begging till I left ph the road was very bad yet people blamed the government. 3. Trucks carry overload goods and spoil our road or fall on other cars and all we do is blame government. What about the greedy driver and his boss? Etc. Finally, 1) we need our value system back in place. So people know what is bad is bad vis a vis. 2) reduce to the minimum religious and tribal sentiment in every area of our lives. 3) have hope in our country and challenge the government intelligently. Also pray for the country all the time. American say in God they trust, they are not fools. 4) when politicians see the change in us (as a people) they will sit up and govern well. 5) elect into power or governance capable hands. 6) fight sabotage in our system. E.g. Fuel, light, corrupt etc. A market woman selling vegetables, what is her business with dollars? In her life I don't think she has seen dollar or used same. People using dollars to trade are the only ones to feel the impact but here in Nigeria everybody wants to exploit any situation to make money. A few make billions from sabotage because Nigerians are gullible and forgetful. My take on a complex country called Nigeria. 36 Likes 6 Shares |

Even if you dont give us 10,000MW,but at least return us to the 5000MW Jonathan left. As yoruba will say: orisa boo le gba mi, se mi boo se ba mi. Meaning: dear reverred deity! If you cannot improve my situation at least leave me in the exact situation you met me and dont make it worse... 54 Likes 3 Shares |

castrokins: This is very stupid. The 10000MW is achieveable. Funny enough it was even Jonathans government's MOUs and contracts that will deliver the 10000 MW but you guys are so ignorant of project management and lifecyckes that when it happens you won't even know whom to praise because you have already blamed Buhari too early . When the 10000MW comes, the only thing i would praise Buhari for is not devaluing the currency until the projects would have been completed. 3 Likes |
