Power Stations Shut Down, As Generation Drops To 169mws by iflywithbuhari(f): 8:44pm On May 17, 2016
Nigeria’s power sector crisis yesterday, appeared messier as indications emerged that more power stations were shutting down due to gas supply constraints, water management and transmission line problems, The Guardian reports. Indeed, the national grid recorded another system collapse, bringing generation down to 169 Mega Watts (MW) from 2633MW on Sunday. This is the sixth time in 23 days that generation would drop below 1000MW, indicating an incessant blackout for consumers. The Special Assistant to the Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Hakeem Bello, however said yesterday that “all hands are on deck to checkmate the situation”. Also, industry data showed that seven power stations are completely shut down while others have some of their units partially closed, thereby shutting-in about 3599MW generation to gas shortages; 247MW to line constraints and 560MW to water management/maintenance.

Some people on this forum were actuality praise worshipping the guy for telling us how much new power stations and roads will cost, as if that amounts to any work or progress... Smh.
