Once it's completed, use it to power Kaduna. Follow the step of Akwa Ibom.
You know in the South, we don't need electricity. We love living in the Dark Ages.

Morocco should stop the colonization of a western sahara(a nation of black people) .Western sahara is the only remaining colony in the world. The Spanish government left and Morocco annexed them in 1975.Since then the black people has been under slavery.

Morocco has been scheming to join ECOWAS in other to subdue the influence of Nigeria and control the ECOWAS market.

Foreign investment is good but not all are with good intention. Government should support local investors .
Very true indeed, i have always been suspicious of the racist moroccans.

Wonderful news and definitely what we need a whole lot of in Nigeria, but the current power situation, regulations, policies, financially weak and compromised DISCOs won't make it a joyful and fruitful venture.

The DISCOs will off-take and buy electricity from Nigerian Bulk Electricity Trading Company (NBET), but won't pay because they are broke and unable to pay. Currently, the DISCOs owe the NBET N348.503 billion on behalf of the GENCOs. NBET's pocket aka Nigerian taxpayers is not bottomless and we can not keep subsidizing or guaranteeing payments that we can not collect from the DISCOs on behalf of the GENCOs and the NBET itself is practically broke and unable to pay the GENCOs for their product..

This laudable project sounds DOA, sadly.

Hypocrite. What is Okowa, Ibori, Uduaghan, Wike doing with your state allocation? Gandollar in far away Kano state is your problem.
So the flaws of Ibori and Uduaghan is a justification for Buhari to watch election being rigged like a movie.

Under the current system, the government-owned Nigerian Bulk Electricity Trading company (NBET) buys power from generators and passes it on to distributors who then collect money from customers and reimburse NBET.

But because NBET is not paid in full for the power it buys, generators such as Azura have been partly reimbursed from an emergency central bank loan fund created to keep the sector afloat.

NNPC told Reuters one of the reasons the Qua Iboe plant (QIPP), which is due to be built in the southern state of Akwa Ibom, had been delayed was because NBET appeared reluctant to commit to new projects to avoid increasing its liabilities.

“The continued delay relates to the current cashflow challenges at NBET, as highlighted by the Azura project,” a spokesman for NNPC said in an emailed statement. “This concern is justified by the fact that NBET is yet to see an improvement in collections from DISCOs (distribution companies).”

These are the challenges and sad realities facing Nigeria and our electricity market, we are not going anywhere near 24/7 electricity until the DISCOs are either disbanded or reconfigured to be productive efficient.

The DISCOs are the weakest link and they must be death with, for now, we are just wasting time and money and spinning our wheels.

Baba that is currently slaughtering people in Kano because of a dollar collecting criminal??


How has PMB got anything to do with what is going on Kano?

Some people are just compulsorily stupid.

Buhari who went for umrah (lesser pilgrimage to Malkah) is being blamed.


You don't blame the politicians, but blame baba.

Is this not a sickness.

Buhari will give us this when the time is right.
Let's put our faith in baba!

I rather put my faith in God than Baba.

It is better to pray and advise baba that he delivers than put my faith in him.

You Igbos can not contribute meaningfully in any thread without your usual fixation, rejoicing in and celebration of death and evil.


I don't even know what your ignorant nonsense got to do with electricity, the president and Kano.

Minnesota Power and Dairyland Power Cooperative have proposed a $700 million natural gas power plant, Nemadji Trail Energy Center, which would be located in Superior, Wis., and provide up to 550 megawatts of power. (Courtesy Minnesota Power)

I don't think so, they are spending way way more for the same 550MW elsewhere.

So what do you want him to do? He goes there with Police, you complain. He goes there with Military, you shout militarized election. As you, a supporter of the opposition is complaining, APC Members are complaining that he is not intervening on their behalf. When APC wins, the election is rigged. When PDP wins, then Democracy is in action.
You cant please everybody. But anybody who is not biased can see the neutrality and the sincerity of the President.

And on Ibori , Delta state etc. We actually dont see you complain bitterly about that Govt who is supposed to be closer to you than Abuja or Kano. This is a fundamental flaw.
