The Nigerian Independent System Operator (NISO) has announced a “notable” improvement in power generation following the repair and restoration of the vandalised Lagos-Escravos gas supply infrastructure.

According to the statement by the Operator, the repair was carried out by the Nigerian Gas Infrastructure Company (NGIC), which it said had enhanced gas supply to several key thermal power plants across the country.

The update followed recent reports of poor power supply across the country.

NISO said the development is a positive step toward stabilising the electricity supply and improving grid reliability for consumers nationwide.

“Currently, gradual power offtake is being carried out by the affected plants to ensure a smooth recovery and maintain the stability of both the gas supply network and the national electricity grid.

“This measured approach is aimed at preventing system stress and ensuring a reliable supply of electricity to meet the needs of industries, businesses, and households.”

The statement added that other thermal power plants remain available and on standby, awaiting confirmation of gas supply from their respective suppliers.

“These plants will be integrated into the national grid to further strengthen generation capacity and reduce the risk of outages.

“NISO continues to work closely with relevant stakeholders, including power generation companies, gas suppliers, and regulatory bodies, to monitor developments and address any operational challenges in real time.

“The organization remains committed to sustaining these improvements and ensuring a reliable, efficient, and resilient power system that supports Nigeria’s socio-economic development.
“NISO urges all consumers to continue practicing energy conservation where possible, as the coordinated efforts to stabilize power supply progress.”

Good2go1:
All these data boys above trying to justify their failure of their paymaster

Putindbutt:
Meanwhile, "the finishing specialist" has quickly come out to embarrass himself, his mouth is way faster than his brain. One wonders if the minister was the cause of the vandalism. When the pipeline caught fire, FG informed Nigerians on the development, they immediately curbed the fire incident and began the repairs. This obviously affected power supply. And FG has once again informed Nigerians about the completion of the repairs. Is the Gbajue insinuating he's not aware?, or his media team that was supposed to inform him left all the weed to him alone?. This is why he will never become President.

Go try buy small generator, no blame government for your own failure in society.

If electricity dey, u go by pass your meter, they cheat your distribution company, then will come back & still blame government for your own actions of electricity theft.

ZombieDredd:
Oh after paying high tarrifs for light, we should still buy generators?

E no go better for who do una this thing.

What next, we should also construct our roads, buy transformers too .

You are accusing him of bypassing meter cos that's what you all do.

You praise failure but go home to cry and bypass meters cos you can't pay the tarrif

The mew laptops boys. How much they are paying you people now? I do hope its not the usual 30k a months this time around??

Nairaland1 the chief sponsor said government is owning trillions to genco for subsidzing power. He justifies the darkness for cheaper electricity for as a result of subsidy for band c and e.

Band A people are not part of the subsidy. Tather they are the once subsidizing for others. So there is no excuse for the government and the company not keeping their own part of the agreement.

In as much are the band A is premium price I still like and prefer it if only they keep to the agreement of minimum 20hours a day.

The money save or realize from Band A they said theu will use to to build more megawatts and develop the power section. They said it would attract foreign investors and more and more people will be moved to band A. Bla bla bla. I told nairaland1 that nothing will come out from it as the same with fuel subsidy removal and every other price increase. This is Nigeria and the logic here is different from textbooks economics and projections.

What genco and phcn have achieved from the band A? we are still were we are same place the PDP left it despite all the increase.
