Business › System Collapse: Power Supply Stabilises At 3,700mw by blacksta(op): 11:06am On Sep 05, 2011
Electricity supply has stabilised at 3,700 megawatts, after a recent system collapse of the facilities of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN), which resulted in almost complete darkness across the country for three days.


PHCN suffered the system failure after Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria (SPDC) closed the Utorogun Gas Plant in Ughelli, Delta State, following the discovery of “sabotage leak” at the gas pipeline.


The incident disrupted gas supply to PHCN’s gas-fired power plants, resulting in substantial drop of electricity supply across the country.


The Utorogun Gas Plant and Chevron’s Escravos Gas Plant are the main sources of gas supply to the Nigerian Gas Company (NGC), a subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), which supplies gas to PHCN’s gas-fired plants across the country.

The country’s electricity supply had peaked at 3,800mw for few hours on August 2010, before it started the current fluctuations. Before last week’s system collapse, PHCN had earlier recorded 11 system collapses this year, whereas for the corresponding periods in 2008, 2009 and 2010, the figures were 36, 33 and 27, respectively.

Johndoe100:
This is how the transformation will be brought to fruition. Already there is a 150% increase in the level of power supply.

Fresh Air
Liars will never inherit the kingdom of God - The last time i checked electricity generation was in decline - 150 % increase means PHCN generates 7500 mw ( which is a cold face LIE )

Politics › Re: Gej Should Resign. Example Of Good Politics is JAPAN by blacksta(m): 11:58am On Aug 30, 2011
Ol boy no kill me laughter - Morality in Japan is very high - Unlike in Nigeria where IT is A CHOP and DIE mentality - We have no core moral values yet. Even if the President cant resign, the IGP and NSA advisor's should have sacked immediately ( for knowing in advance of possible attack and doing nothing) but unfortunately it is a PADI PADI arrangement. MEDIOCRITY surrounds MEDIOCRITY.

Abeg enjoy YOUR FRESH AIR - Just another 4 years to go. tongue

Haba 4% in four years  - ( not even 4% per year) -  means roughly about 1 % per year -   Sacking all the useless special advisors should  reduce expenditure by at least 5 % talkless of other areas  - This woman can do better than that - I thought  they said she was head of World bank.    This is an insult on Nigerians , i guess it is business as usual for GEJ and his corrupt elites

A new elimination level will be needed to weed the cowboys from the professional. You either have massive experience and proof of it or you have the advance or intermediate cert
That would only apply to those seeking entry into software testing. I still believe that software testing experience is much more sought after than an ISEB qualification.  You and i know that the ISEB exams is so easy that any one worth a bit of salt should scale through easily.

Business › Re: Price Of Cement Hits All-time High by blacksta(m): 8:50am On Aug 20, 2011
Sun of god:
The danger of 'Monopolies'. . . .  .

Cement producers can simply cut supply to raise prices with little or no competition - simple economics.

So what can the govt do? Here's a few suggestions.

- They can provide subsidies to cement producers.
- They can cut any tax imposed on cement producers.
- They can encourage foreign companies to supply cement from outside the country by removing import tarifs.
- They can supply interest free loans to cement producers for them to invest in extra capacity.
- They can 'Nationalise' cement companies.
Only applicable in a sane environment and not a country like Nigeria ruled by drug barons, thieves and murderers
