There Is No 24hrs Light In Aba. Don't Mind The Propaganda by IkeOnyia(op): 10:59am On Mar 01, 2024
Go to facebook and other social media platforms and you will see genuine residents of Aba and environs complaining that they have not had light for months and are still experiencing epileptic supply even after commissioning of the dormant Geometric plant.

Geometric power is yet to fire up even one of its three turbines as it negotiates with Shell for gas whose current prices have hit the roofs. To supply even one turbine with constant gas will cost Geometric so much money that it will need to secure loans from banks while hoping that Aba residents pay up the astronomical electricity bills required to offset the costs incurred. And that one turbine as expensive as it is to operate, would not satisfy Aba needs. Just like Dangote refinery, Geometric power will need a few years to come up swinging with complete vigour. Constant electricity is not cheap.

You are the one sharing propoganda
ABA metropolis covers all Abia south senatorial zone, and close to half of Abia central senatorial zone, that's rough 9 L.G.A of Abia state, you don't expect everyone in the 9 l.G.A to start having steady light at once, some people are complaining why some others are rejoicing, I believe very soon all of them will rejoice

There is.... just that the light has not reached every single household because it's still being tested and at the same time, they are trying to connect it. In due time, every household will get electrified

Yoruba people now care about Aba than even Aba people themselves,now they all have friends and family whom they call in Aba to discredit the 24/7 power in Aba
They are fighting nail and tooth to make sure it’s a lie,to them it should be Lagos,so they can add it as part of the blueprints/achievements of tinubu

1. You are right that the power plant has not been connected to the customers.

2. The company never said Aba is enjoying 24/7 electricity. They released a statement that they will start connecting customers by weekend. So we have to wait till next week to see if they have fulfilled their objective.

3. The statement 'constant electricity is not cheap' is ridiculous. Is constant petrol cheap? Is constant diesel cheap? Is constant cooking gas cheap? But Nigerians are buying them. Is using private generator at home cheaper than public power supply?

A project that they just commissioned and you're talking of fact.

We know people that don't want to hear any good news from SE.

Oga, calm down.... Are you happy there is darkness in Aba? These things take time. You think it is just a light bulb that you will remove the switch and put another one.

That place has to first be removed from the national grid and then rerouted to the new power source.

Do not behave like obidient people who do not like good news. This power project in Aba is a source of joy to all true lovers of Nigeria. Whatever initial teething problems will all be resolved, it may even take months, so calm down

It appears that the promised electricity will not be available for an additional three to four weeks. Disconnecting from the national grid was mentioned, whatever that means.

The disturbing thing, is that those kind of irresponsible posters are usually claiming to be responsible in their community. Not knowing they are miscreants online.
I wonder the kind of fellow country men/women we have? It's best to avoid certain people especially those who hate good governance.
