PoliticsRe: China Spent $25B For 22,000MW And Nigeria $35B For 2500MW by LRNZH(m): 6:23pm On Jan 04, 2015
Collynzo9:
I just took another look at the figures, I thought is was the same 2500 MW for both countries.
There could be a lot of reasons for that apart from the labour issues I already mentioned.
The fact that that we have to import more of the needed materials while China might not import at all, they have some of the basic infrastructure on ground already, while we build from scratch.
This is just to show why power projects in Nigeria could be more expensive than in China, but the figures you guys gave are false.
Don't defend blatant corruption.

Infact, the OP was even suppose to say 0 (zero, zilch) watts for $35Billion by Nigeria.
We have not generated any extra MW if you consider the past 16 years average wattage in Nigeria.

OBJ, Yar'adua and GEJ are all culpable.

LRNZH:
[b]
You admitting that the reshuffling was a punishment for the heads that ought to roll in NNPC means you agree that there was some wrong doing ie money is missing. They have been declared guilty and punished even before this audit was carried out.

So, if the allegedly 'dismissed' folks are found culpable of missing funds by this report, they need to be indicted and jailed for misappropriated funds. Dismissal is not enough. Level of punishment handed to these heads is not commensurate because we don't know the level of their culpability.

I bet you there are still heads in the present govt that ought to roll in that scenario of missing funds.

The fact that SLS was also dismissed before the defacto evidence - this report came out is why GEJ's head will roll if Sanusi is close to being right.

In summary, my point is NOI and Diezani claim there was no wrong doing, however heads have been reshuffled in NNPC as a punishment. For what? That is admitting some wrong doing.
The amount of punishment is arbitrary since the heft of their crimes is yet to be determined by the PwC report.
Punishing SLS before the fact is grounds to impeach GEJ if SLS is eventually right (even if 50% right).
[/b]


Edit:
Based on the post below, no one was even dismissed. Departments were just changed for supposedly culpable people. That make the punishment nonexistent.

So heads must roll of the PwC report proves NNPC etc culpability.

Ngwakwe:
You forgot that the former GED of the NNPC in charge of exploration, Abiye, was sacked after he fought spiritedly to reconcile accounts on alleged missing oil funds with ex-CBN Governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi.
I'm familiar to a considerable level with Abiye's sack story. He was sacked for being utterly stubborn with the IOCs not for the reasons mentioned above.

Abiye verbally insulted the Country Managers/Directors of those IOCs in meetings between NNPC and IOCs. He refused their cash call without any consideration for workarounds

Infact, he stopped some company's from drilling between 2014 and 2015. He was a risk to Gov't's revenue from the oil sector and was destroying the goodwill between the IOCs and the FG hence his sack. He barely lasted for a year If I recollect well.

Collynzo9:
Chinese have very poor labour policies.
The could have used children who are paid peanuts in some aspects of the projects, while the other workers are paid like slaves.
Modern slavery exists in China.
So is that the main reason why we get 2,500 MW for $35Billion
and the Chinese get 20,000 MW for $25Billion?

Are you implying labour costs are the major cash sink in power projects enough to cause 100 fold difference in impact on wattage of power produced?

PoliticsRe: NNPC AUDIT by PwC: Report Ready Later This Month by LRNZH(op):
Ngwakwe:
The organisational structures of NNPC were reshuffled last year.

The heads that ought to roll have already been dismissed and certain necessary changes made based on the previous PwC Audit report ordered by Madueke that was received last year.

If you cared to note, the Mallam Sanusi suspicion that prompted the letter had nothing to do with the President or the Finance Minister per say rather the already known rot in NNPC (the most secretive and corrupt agency of government ever known to man backed by the constitution and statutes)

Any region thay supports subsidy is full of thieves and lazy people
SUBSIDY MUST GO

Quick to scream remove subsidy! How about we request for accountability first. Otherwise we are increasing the percentage of takings for the vested interests siphoning our funds.
If subsidy were such a big problem, why are refineries not in the priorities of the PDP Gov't? Why is unprecedented bunkering being perpetrated by militants with GEJ's approval?
Why should Nigerians pay a premium for imported fuel when they can get cheaper locally refined fuel?


Sunofgod:
As if 'PWC' is not another corrupt organization . . . . .their people also take bribes to provide false reports.

See (google) what they did to 'Tesco'.....with wayo reporting.
Remember how KBR, Halliburton and Dick Cheney got their hands burnt by bribing their way into the Nigeria NLNG projects.
PwC better not tow that line especially since it is likely that APC members will increase in number in the bicameral legislature. It even gets worse for PwC if eventually GMB gets the Presidency.

This is why we need change from the status quo,we can't continue to run a country like this. Look at the amount PDP spent in 16 years and the result . Is this a goverment that deserves a re-election? Vote Mohammed Buhari for change,he might not be perfect,but he's the better alternative.

Ngwakwe:
NNPC has much money to spare based on how the establishment is being managed.

The worst that can happen is for NNPC to pay up whatever balance that remained unremitted while the NASS takes on the expended Kerosene subsidy in a retrospective supplementary budget as it has already indicated interest.
If there is any irregularity based on this report, big heads will roll because a head has rolled already...SLS.
There are powerful people waiting in the wings to serve their own justice.

See another example:

Longtan Dam and Hydropower Station - Guangxi, China (Cost: $4.2 Billion US)
Longtan Dam is a large roller-compacted concrete (RCC) gravity dam on the Hongshui River in Tian'e County of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, a tributary of the Xi River and the Pearl River. The dam is 216.2 m (709.3 ft) high and 849 m (2,785 ft) long; it is the tallest of its type in the world. The dam is intended for hydroelectric power production, flood control and navigation. The dam contains seven surface spillways, two bottom outlets and an underground power station. The installed electric power generation capacity of the dam is 6,426MW.

Ngwakwe:
Forensic audit will soon be published and we are yet to see the details, yet you still hold onto assumptions and prejudice.

When will you be ready to accept a fact whether it favours you or run contrary to your opinions?

The Senate said President Yara'dua violated the constitution by making a secret non-gazetted policy on Kerosene subsidy hence it remains null and void.

Secondly, subsidy claims can be forwarded as supplementary budget after it has been expended.

Whatever becomes the outcome of the audit will remain the fact in public domain as other correspondences are unknowable, and this have more to do with the secretive nature and activities of NNPC enabled by constitution and statutes establishing the industry.

In short terms, the Northern Oligarchy and military establishment never envisaged a Southerner without Military background ruling this country in a foreseeable future.

It's a lie,they won't release the report until after the election. This "source" vanguard keeps using is likely Doyin Okupe or Reno Omokri feeding them this lies.re is no way this The goverment will not escape and in indictment, Sanusu said $20 billion was missing,Ngozi Iweala said there was it was only $10.2 billion was unaccounted for out of the $20 billion because $9.8 was spent on Kerosine subsidy but that claim is suspect the Senate never appropriated that amount in the budget,so it's an extra budgetary expenditure which is criminal because it was'nt captured in the budget. Ngozi Iweala went to Harvard she knows you can't just spend money how you like that is not budgeted for,this was a way of making up for half of the missing money,now they will find a way as far as i'm concerned to cook the books for the remaining $10.2 billion
The fallout of any 'cookery' will consume more than they can ever expect.
