Nigeria's minister of power, Professor Barth Nnaji held an interactive session earlier today on twitter with the hashtag #NGPower

The tweet meet started past five, he actually came late as he was meant to start by 5 pm as earlier announced. He started by apologising.
Professor Barth started by responding to questions asked, saying there is a plan and it is captured in the power sector road map and that more licenses have been given out and that 40,000MW is targeted. He said there is no policy barring states from generating power that states and anybody can generate power. He cited Lagos and Rivers states as states currently generating power.
The high point came when he said PHCN will stop existing by 31stDecember 2011, replacement wasn’t stated but he assured that all PHCN staffs will not lose their jobs that they will be absorbed by successor companies. PHCN corporate headquarter will be shut down, successful companies in distribution, generation and transmission will function. He went ahead to say a wind farm project in Katsina is expected to completed by the 3rd quarter of 2012. He said there are a lot of policies on ground for prospective investors and that more information will be out by the end of January 2012. Someone asked about metre payments and he said NERC has been contacted and that they have removed extra metre charges.
He proceeded saying three coal-fired station are to be set up in Enugu, Gombe and Benue states with generative capacity of 1000MW each and that in addition, 2600MW hydro plant Mambilla Plateau state and 700MW in Zungeru Niger state. HE also said the installation of thousands of transformers across the country to improve power distribution is ongoing.
In his words “When we came at 2010, the generation was at 2800MW . We have improved it to over 4000MW”, “We have established the Nigerian Electricity Bulk Trading Company www.nbet.com.ng”, “We have re-established NERC, a strong regulator has been put in place to regulate the industry”, “The activities of the Bulk Trader are to act as a stand between the generating companies and the distribution companies”, “The activities of the Bulk Trader are to act as a stand between the generating companies and the distribution companies” , “We've gotten World Bank to provide the partial risk guarantee for gas and power. In support of the reform process”, “Increased power supply across the country as reflected in increase of quantum of 2800MW to over 4000MW as of today” ,“We have also got OPIC to provide a 1.5 billion dollars investment window to support the nigerian power sector” , “It takes 3-4 years to complete a power plant if all necessary things are in place.Based on this we project continuous improvements”, “You can also visit our website http://www.power.gov.ng/ to find out more about the activities of the ministry” , “CBN has provided the power intervention fund to support the power sector” , “The new tariff will provide a major incentive for new investment in the sector” , “We have paid PHCN workers N57 billion , have agreed on their 50% salary increase, agreed to convert 11,000 casual to regular staff”, “It is our long term goal that the Nigerian power market reaches a point of stability for a willing-buyer, willing-seller mode” .

He went ahead to say there will be new tariffs which will be announced by NERC next year arguing that Nigeria pays one the lowest electricity tariff in Sub Saharan Africa except Zambia. HE replied someone saying Nigeria supplies power to Niger, Chad and Benin.
He ended saying , “I want to assure Nigerians that we are doing everything necessary to boost power generation nationwide. It has been an engaging tweet-meet with you all. Further questions on other aspects of the reform could be forwarded to bart.nnaji@power.gov.ng.

The tweet meet lasted about an hour

10 Makeup Mistakes That Can Age You
Using makeup is a double-edged sword. Apply it correctly, and it can make you look youthful and fresh: Witness our well-made-up models, both in their forties. But use too heavy a hand or dated techniques, and it can just as easily add years to your face. See the 10 errors makeup pros singled out for us, plus the easy fixes to make.

13 everyday habits that are aging you
Are you aging faster than your years? If you don't like what you see in the mirror, it may be time to evaluate some of your daily routines. The foods you eat and even the way you sleep can add years to your face and may shorten your lifespan. Here, experts discuss the most common age-accelerating habits and ways to reverse the process.

You wear too much makeup
Metallic blue eye shadow aside, excess makeup can age you in less obvious ways, too, said Stuart. "Wearing excessive amounts of makeup, especially oil based products, can clog your skin pores and cause outbreaks." In addition, overusing skin products with fragrances, irritating chemicals, and alcohol agents may dry out the skin by removing its natural oils, which causes premature lines and wrinkles. Consult with your dermatologist for guidance.

THE FEAR OF BIAFRA IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM.

THE FEAR OF TRUMP IS THE BEGINNING OF PANIC.

ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SOUTH EAST IS NOW AN IMPORTANT PLACE TO VISIT FOR THE BRITISH HIGH COMMISION.

WE HAVE SAT AND WATCHED DEM VISIT THE NORTH MULTIPLE TIMES AND LIKEWISE THE SOUTH WEST.

BRITAIN IS NO LONGER COMFORTABLE WITH AMERICA UNDER TRUMP, NOW DEY WANT ACCESS TO THE SOUTH EAST FOR NEGOTIATION.

IF OUR POLITICAL LEADERS IN THE EAST ARE SMART, THEY WILL KNOW THAT HAD HILARY WON, THIS VISIT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.

BRITAIN IS AN ENEMY. THEY SHOULD KISS GOODBYE TO THE BIAFRA TERRITORY THEY STOLE. THIEVES!

igbos are quite intelligent... ibo is the most intelligent tribe in africa according to the US. as we all know intelligence boosts creativity so u cant take it from them.

Reno Wendel Simlin Omokri and his band of pathetic gobblins and jonadumbfucktard slaves tried to twist and mould history to their favour but met an impenetrable brickwall called FACTUAL RECORDS!

The dvmbfuck sacked the criminanl not because of suspecion of theft but because he dared to challege his mistress, Alison Okpolo Eyes Madueke.

They will try to chip at this to create a passage way but we know it will ammount to sheer waste of energy.

Jonathan remains a pathological failure in and out of office. His slaves can do all they can to whitewash his image, but like we always say, THE INTERNET NEVER FORGETS.

seunmsg:
Reno Omokri and his gang of losers can keep deceiving themselves. Reasonable Nigerians knew quite well that Andrew Yakubu was neither sacked for corruption nor investigated by EFCC. Corruption wasn't an offence under Jonathan as the entire government was a free for all come and loot regime.

NIGERIA belongs to the Northerners, in the first place why would a Northerner govern the NNPC, knowing that the North don't produce Oil, okay check out NNPC board members. Four Northerners, One South, One South West .At the end I smile with disdain when you shout ONE NIGERIA, pls how when the oil producing state are 5%

That is why I said the coastal American States are less conservative thsn the middle American States (which have a slight majority) but still, I daresay that Nigeria is more conservative

Ugosample:
America is more conservative than Nigeria

Do You know what you are talking about?

Though some American States are conservative, especially States in the middle as opposed to the States at the coast, which tend to be more liberal, but on a country to country basis, Nigeria is FAR more conservative than the USA....

Standard organisation is not active in Nigeria.
Imagine buying 157g of toothpaste to discover half of it filled up with air.
We are at the mercy of manufacturers. Anything goes in Nigeria.
