Electricity: National Grid Restored; Minister Of Power Abubakar Aliyu by neolboy(op): 9:33pm On Mar 16, 2022
Electricity: National grid restored — Minister of Power, Abubakar Aliyu

The Minister of Power Abubakar Aliyu has announced the restoration of the national grid, which broke down twice in the last 48 hours leading to a nationwide blackout.

The Minister, in a statement, explained: “The current challenges of electricity supply in Nigeria are being resolved with the ongoing restoration of normal operations. Early in the week, the national grid suffered a decrease in electricity due to so many factors. However, more of the power is being restored.

The current energy cr!sis confronting some key sectors of the economy also contributed to the problems we are facing now in the power sector. We are where we are today also because of the increasing vandalization of pipelines that also supply gas to the power plants. This too is being resolved in collaboration with the relevant agencies. NNPC and other gas suppliers are working relentlessly to restore gas supply for optimum power supply.

Government is doing everything — working with the relevant security agencies — to stop vandalization of pipelines. Routine maintenance of power generating plants had also contributed to the current power outages we are experiencing.
“These challenges do not in any way indicate that the ongoing rehabilitation of the national grid by the government is not yielding results.

“Despite all the challenges, we are recording successes and the grid is being restored back to full operation. Government solicits the support of all Nigerians at this time, while efforts will continue to increase and stabilize electricity supply across Nigeria.”

U see why our leaders are not really accountable to you and I but use every given opportunity to ' masturbate' about their achievements. National power grid failed badly and d entire nation thrown into darkness and d authorities eventually spoke without a common apologizing or saying we are sorry and with a promise that it won't repeat again rather d Minister used this sober moment of shame of negligence and incompetence to hype his ministry

What are you talking about? Are you trying to say that the reason there's a nation wide black out is because all Nigerians have not paid their electricity bills? What will you now say about those using prepaid?

Lori iro

The guy is even systematically trading blames instead of taking responsibility.

Who is supposed to oversee the routine maintenance?

Thank God the Bill for states to generate power has been passed, States should also initate State bills to fully allow private companies to generate and distribute not this form of public private partnership existing but full privatisation.

If they don't supply electricity, no shishi. Let me know whether a private company can open it's gutters and say that poor maintenance of power plants caused outage.

Nonesense and ingredients.
