Nigeria is yet to record a remarkable success in nuclear energy production and further improve electricity supply, ROSATOM’s Head, Technical and Infrastructure Department, Jose Bastos, said at the weekend in Sochi, Russia at the 2019 Atomexpo International Conference/Exhibitions.

The country produces less than 5,000 megawatts (Mw) of electricity, which are not enough to increase socio-economic activities nationwide. The Federal Government is exploring the nuclear energy option for growth.

Ok

If our government can tap into this opportunity. I think it will help our power sector.

Nigeria, nuclear power... Disaster waiting to happen

We don't want!!

Even d man saying dis is not serious himself.. So he expects a Nigeria dat hasn't been serious about ordinary Hydro Electric power or even getting refineries working or an uncomplicated steel plant and he's there talking about being serious about complicated nuclear power?? Abeggi talk beta thing jare

I would be cool with a salt thorium power plant. I read its safer than uranium and harder to make nuclear weapons with. More research should go in that direction.

Really?
You think Govt is stupid, crazy or something?
You allow the Russians to come and build, manage a nuclear power plant for Nigeria. The day they give Nigeria a proposal Nigeria does not consider, do you know what they will do with the nuclear power? At all times you can, never allow another man to hold you by the jugular

Nuclear power will lead to comfortable citizens.
Comfortable citizens are hard to divide and govern.
Leave this matter, the average Nigerian loves suffering and complaining.
