The Minister of State of Power, Goddy Jedy-Agba, has said that the power sector in the country is improving and better than before. The minister, who said this on Tuesday in Benin during the inspection of Azura-Edo power plant, assured of regular power supply during the yuletide period.

“The power sector is improving gradually and it is better than before. For me, power is stabilizing. I am sure we will do better. Government, Discos and all the stakeholders in the power sector are putting heads together to ensure that it improve than what it is now.

“Azura is working to make power available to Nigeria. I am here to see what the power plant is doing for Nigerians so that the management can improve on whatever the shortcomings they have. But with what I saw today, the company is doing well. “During this year’s Christmas, Nigerians will have light all through. I will be on duty on Christmas day and you can see me going round all the power plants. I assure you that there will be adequate power supply,” he said.

The minister commended the management of the power plant for its investment in the country. Earlier, the plant’s managing director, Edu Okeke, said Nigeria needed more power plants to be able to get to the desired power generations, transmissions and distributions. He attributed inadequate remittance of funds by Discos as one of the major challenges confronting the establishment.

Maybe it's improving in Iso roko
Not in Nigeria at large

Zoo country
Everything is a rocket science to them.

Make una wait Lemme go outside and see whether my area is in cotonou before I can comment.

Let me check first. ...

Failure personified. They make Nigerians angry everyday. Why not allow us to talk ? In my own opinion, it is painfully disappointing

“The power sector is improving gradually and it is better than before. For me, power is stabilizing..."

Power improving where? Thought Fashola said Nigeria have enough electricity? Everybody under this government is so plain stupid & kept glorifying themselves in their gross incompetence.They think all Nigerians are morons.

Are these people in this country ? . Do they realise just last week the whole nation suffered a total system failure not one but twice ?

Failures always praise themselves for doing nothing

Everybody in this administration are mad... How we got here baffles me.


Power is now worse than it has ever been... In the last one week we haven't had up to 5hrs of power and some clown is talking about improvement... Improvement of what? Improvement kii you there

Calm down Mr minister,you have not started yet, don't be in a hurry ehhh

They re always like the agama lizard.... always praising themselves.

every minister says the same thing

Judging from the amount budgeted for running generators in 2020 budget, who is deceiving who?

where? why can't the government remove distribution of electricity from the exclusive list so as to give each state the right to generate and also distribute their power . where it is in excess they sell to other states that have short fall. With this the transmission infrastructure will be seriously overhaul by respective states concern. This is one of the things I dislike GEJ.
