Ekiti Government Grant License To Investors To Generate & Distribute Electricity by LegendHero(op): 10:58pm On Nov 07, 2024
Ekiti governor statement.

I am pleased to share an update on the progress we are making in Ekiti towards achieving energy independence.

We have granted operational licenses to 14 electricity investors, which include :
* 3 distribution companies
* ⁠4 generation companies
* ⁠2 mini-grid generation companies, and
* ⁠5 meter asset providers.
This strategic move will enhance power generation, ensure efficient distribution, and provide reliable metering for our residents.

Currently, Ekiti receives approximately 20-25 MW from the national grid, which falls short of our estimated requirement of 120 MW. Our goal is to reach 130 MW through a robust state grid, reducing our dependency on the national supply and promoting sustainable, locally managed energy solutions.

This initiative aligns with the 2023 Electricity Law Enactments, which empower states to decentralise electricity markets and license providers to meet local needs better.

Thanks to everyone who believes in our vision for a brighter, self-reliant Ekiti. Together, we are building a stronger foundation for economic growth, job creation, and an improved quality of life for all our residents.

Great news from Ekiti State.
Re: Ekiti Government Grant License To Investors To Generate & Distribute Electricity by Mercisharelove(f):
Strong leadership

This is the way to go, if we want to enjoy steady power supply? Then the governors needs to wake up to their primary responsibility, which is provision of enabling environment for investors to thrive.

Bad belle, same person from the bottom region still celebrating julius berger logo in 2024.

It is only someone from a region that father will kill his son with a gun over left food that will see news like this and be angry.

Right way to go!

The essence of the new law is to empower the states to think outside the box and take full control of the generation, transmission and distribution of power within their states instead of solely relying on the stillbirth of a national grid which collapse at any slight provocation.


Not like the charade of Enugu State who withdrew electricity distribution licence from EEDC and gave it again to EEDC subsidiary.

All these plans sound good on paper, but until we have leaders who truly have the interest of the people at heart, they are just propaganda - achievable but not realistic with our current crop of ogas at the top

When news like this come on front page, everyone will start jubilating. But nobody asks the source of energy. You want to generate power but didn't mention the energy source.

Those who are intelligent enough to question the source of energy are tagged haters. Little wonder our politicians use us to play ping-pong in this part of the world because they know the people are a bunch of ignoramuses!
Re: Ekiti Government Grant License To Investors To Generate & Distribute Electricity by Miramonica: 6:32am On Nov 08, 2024
Why is Nigeria caused with bad leaders?

This is just the way to go, every State should generate its electricity and sell the excess to neighbouring states, or even to the Federal Government to add to what it intends to sell to other African countries.

If this is done, the problem of electricity will go. All those countries that have 24 hrs electricity didn't use jazz.
Re: Ekiti Government Grant License To Investors To Generate & Distribute Electricity by blackboy(m): 6:33am On Nov 08, 2024
You will see how public servants will frustrate them or kill the project. Customs, Ministry of Finance, NNPC and their agencies. These officials are well paid but corruption and greed will take over them forget their Christian or Muslim heart, money is important

Re: Ekiti Government Grant License To Investors To Generate & Distribute Electricity by lavylilly: 6:37am On Nov 08, 2024
cheesy

When some of us insist more autonomy and independent control for States and regions is the only way forward for Nigeria to survive and thrive, or face certain death if we continue as before, some wil be shouting Tinubu, Obi, Atiku etal up and down while insulting each other.

Nigerians must all key into the concept of demanding State and regional autonomy as important and sacrosanct above everything else to include the ambition of any individual.

No president can achieve anything without a fundamental reforms to the governance structure of Nigeria.

If Ekiti now gains 24/7 electricity then all fans of Obi and Atiku, because they are the traditional nomads economic migrants of Nigeria, will be quick to relocate to Ekiti and overburden the State instead of fighting their own governors and leader to deliver the same proactive, focused and visionary leadership Ekiti is enjoying.

I am commited to a state autonomy because I know it is We the people alone that has the will, sagacity, capacity and ability to restructure Nigeria but what is shown below is what I am devoted to above everything else.

It is what all Nigerians should be insisting on because it is the only way out of the corruption, misrule and 'one Nigeria' regression that will destroy Nigeria if not thrown out to be replaced with State and regional autonomy asap.

Go in from of there mirror and ask yourself “ is everything ok with my life”?

Is it lack of education of thr usual “ I Shaa must comment on every topic syndrome? Becaus I don’t know how you would compare Fajuyi park to giving licenses to power investors?

Hunger is everywhere in the land including the potopoto industry in the East.
Re: Ekiti Government Grant License To Investors To Generate & Distribute Electricity by fixedhollies(m): 6:42am On Nov 08, 2024
These were the promises of previous governors in Ekiti every campaign era. I am glad this guy is doing something meaningful towards that.


Ekiti has some water body that would be useful for this power generation. I doubt they wanna explore hydro.

Why don't you wait and see if it would work or not? It is still a good step which other states too are duplicating.

As useless as Buhari was,He was the one that signed it into law and removed power from the exclusive list. So stop being negative everytime

When the time to condemn comes when things are wrong,condemn,when it is to commend,commend,and when the time to wait and see,you wait.

On this,you wait and see if it's a fluke or not.
