Somebody was on this forum berating me because i said there is light at the end of the tunnel CGKING where are you, read all these posts and go and do your investigations I know you can still come out to tell us that the govt went to borrow power from neighbouring countries to deceive us so they can win 2011 votes shior.

All this that we are noticing now is the work Yaradua and the dissolved cabinet has been doing since, the other day Barkindo was telling us that he has excess gas that PHCN is yet to utilize and PHCN said they were already generating about 3000 to 4000MW and once the other power statios come on strean after fixing what is wrong with them the 6000mw will be exceeded. My contact in PHCN had told me a long time ago that if power generation gets to 4500 mw Nigerians would not be able to complain and now i guess we are seeing this already.

This doesnt stop here the govt still has 10,000MW to meet by December and they are working seriously towards it, one day I hope history will vindicate Yaradua as a man who tried and laid a solid foundation for the liberation of this country from all our woes.

Here are evidence that this is not just a section or regional achievement where some mischief makers will tell us that all the power has been used to service them, from Kaduna to Lagos, to Port harcourt to Ebonyi but pls if u are yet to start experiencing this kind of embarrasment just be patient and pray that we have peace so that ur expectation will be met


damola1:

Interestingly, this is happening in Ikeja too, I am yet to get used to it.
Strictyan:

i live in kaduna state and i noticed the same thing too. does it mean these guys can actually provide reasonable power supply if they want to. na wa o. so we are suffering just so that some people can make money from diesel and generator importation.


shior! God punish devil


Quote from Adefemi

My Generator is looking worried.

It has NOT worked for 2 weeks. Just taking this opportunity to do TAM ( Turn Around Maintenance ) on my GEN.

I know we will soon pay back in due time for this constant power

The electricity has quite improved in my area of Port Harcourt, wonder how long this will last although NEPA brought a bill some days back.

This is because people are now being fired for non performance.  It is a welcome development, now lets hope this last.

Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by bike1: 1:18pm On Mar 24, 2010
Omo, surulere has been set ablaze by PHCN. Me sef i de fear too. Just 3weeks ago, on adelabu, i saw trailers carryin various machines that looked like a story building into their NEPA quaters. Heard des stuffs have been at the port since, yaradua improted them but wasnt cleared, Gist talk say Johnathan released the bar to clear them and they have been deployed to various stations. I dnt knw if this is d reason but i saw these magnificent equipment that i was wondering wat they wer.
PHCN pls dnt slack oooo, not after praisin u guys now

Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by honeric01(m): 1:41pm On Mar 24, 2010
Just yesterday at Ogba, i saw like 5 trailers with about 30 transformers each on them driving out of Haulage company (i think they sell/make transformer not sure).

Well if it's for real, then it's good.
Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by naijaswag1: 1:44pm On Mar 24, 2010
I have always been optimistic about one Nigeria which will eventually emerge to take its proper place in Africa and the world at large.All we need is one good man at the helm of affairs who will realize that this nation can still offer its citizens basic necessities whilst there will still be enough for him to cart away.I am a strong believer in Capt Chukwuma Nzeogwu's(of blessed memory) belief of a great United Nigeria.I know that it will happen in the next 5years.I don't mean Vision 2020.
Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by Georgiedey(m): 1:46pm On Mar 24, 2010

Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by naijachix(m): 1:54pm On Mar 24, 2010
GUYS 4GET DIS YANN! ! ! maybe this constant light thing is peculiar to lagosian only!

I live in Rayfield Jos. NEPA PHCN provide light for some part while some other parts are being supplied by a private company NESCO. . .

I tell you, for the past 4 days i never see or even smell light!

MAY BE  THIS CONSTANT LIGHT THING IS JUST A MIRAGE! I'm sure u guys will soon wakeup!
Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by Ericomoto(m): 1:54pm On Mar 24, 2010
For the first time in my Lagos life. I had light in my appartment in Gbagada for 72 hours non stop!!!.The fuel I bought 2 weeks ago is still there crying for use and my generator has become dusty.I can not believe this is happening in Nigeria. But yesterday,it became off and on again but better than none at all like before.
Re: Constant Power Supply? Whats The Cause? by MrKelly: 1:58pm On Mar 24, 2010
