Bedc license should be revoked. Imagine power supply of 3 hours average per day.

Good to know I'm not the only one bearing this sentiment; BEDC is by far the most useless and inefficient DISCO on the face of the earth. I wonder why anyone permits such inefficiency to exist. THe company is cursed!

The FG needs to sort out Gas and transmission and grid issues before reviewing these companies. A lot of them have excuses on ground. How can you accuse a power plant if the plant is not getting adequate gas. Most of the NIPP plant operate btw 20-30% of full capacity. The IPPs can bare run 2-3 turbines because of limited gas. Some gencos dnt invest enough and have to cannibalize other turbines to give the operating turbines parts. The discos are not investing enough and just collecting money from customers, take their own and give govt whats left. The Genco bares the brunt of all this.

Sort yourself out first so you can challenge these companies. FG is just lazy and looking for ways to collect some and reallocate to their cronies. Dummies.

It was a wrong move to sell or unbundle PHCH. Owners of these discos are unknown and their license were done in such a way that it will be difficult to terminate.
It is such a pity that such a country are without stable electricity.

Stable power is guaranteed to generate wealth.

Concentrating on railways and roads is like reading chapter 3 of a book before chapter 1.

Power will guarantee a sort of security, employment, and happy citizens.

Hope this power issue is rectified in that country as soon as possible.

Corruption and lack of a national spirit are the twin problems bedevilling the Power Sector in Nigeria. All grammar by Okonjo and Adesina are not saying things we don't already know. Yar Adua once proposed declaring a state emergency in the Sector. Why have we not done that till date? It would involve a ban on the use of generators in all residences and with the exception of manufacturing industries and military barracks and hospitals! Then, we will wake up!

No need to waste precious time reviewing anything, the license of Benin Distribution company (BEDC) should just be revoked instantly and the owners arrested and tortured. Never in history has a public service company been so dubious, ineffective and useless! *spits*

I dont know of others but i think IKEDC (IE) is doing fairly well so please dont revoke their license.

I get an average of 12hours daily which i believe is fair enough for Nigeria standard.

But why revoke license when we know FG will end up selling it to their other incompetent cronies? Just tighten regulations like placing sanction on extimated billing, delay in fixing transformer and other major customer complaints, and watch as every player sit up.

Our problem is not knowing what to do. Our problem is looking for personal interest in every sitiation.

Good.

But I think the solution to power problem in nigeria is to unbundle this ambiguous Discos,Gencos and any other "cos" there is.

Make room for private investors to come in and sink in there resources.

Are you aware that Canaan land has power since 1999 till date without any Grid collapse or power outage?

We couldn't hv gotten out telecommunication right if we left it to nitel till date.

Enough said.

PMB shouldn't confirm this acting power minister untill he make tangible things work in power sector because if they confirm him the power companies will bribe him money that he can't refuse and change the narration at the detriment of our development!
