A private company came in built a power station ( meant for street lights and flow of water) and Fash did commissioned the project(good) but who initiated the idea of private companies to take over power generation was it Fash? So please learn to appreciate the transformation agenda

With ALL The OIL REVENUE THAT THE OIL RICH SOUTH SOUTH Earns I am Dissapointed in those OIL REVENUE Governors.

Habba, be fair, which state out of ALL those south south(or even the whole Nigeria) has the kind of population lagos has to cater for?

Lagos is Not Pampered monthly with Billions oil revenue.
WHY ARE PEOPLE not objective?
Lagos has to be on its toes and even be innovative before they can generate those IGRS.
Appart from Population(which the federal government has turned to a liability for lagos, by leaving them to lagos alone to cater for), what else does lagos has? Is it not the same allocation as with other states.
Does lagos have special oil revenue?

Na Diesel generators wan run Lagos?

Don't come online and display your ignorance. Just because you saw PRIVATE there does not mean it was a GEJ inspired initiative.

Get some education. Private Public Partnership(PPP) still falls under a government project contracted out to private firms to run for a time and eventually return it to the government.

It is a kind of private financing of public projects. It is not owned by any private company. The private company on the authority of the government, source for funds privately, build the project, run the project for a period of time to make their profit and hand it over to the government.

The two major advantage is that it reduces corruption and the government does not have to use public funds to build it.

PPP has being around since the time of OBJ not GEJ initiative.

The Lagos State Government (LASG) has identified the provision of POWER as a key area to be addressed if it intends to sustain its growing mega city status. As such, the Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) administration through its 10-point development agenda has identified the development of an energy security strategy that supports the state’s economic development program.

Lagos State Government established the 'Lagos Energy Academy' in 2014, which provides comprehensive technical training for young people in the Power, Public lighting and Energy development. The training school is located at the Lagos State Electricity Board premises in Ikeja GRA. The objectives of the Lagos Energy Academy are as follows:

Provide international- standard training in all areas of the power value chain ranging from generation, transmission, distribution and production of power sector components such as transformers, meters and control panels.
To provide industry standard training for young citizens and produce employable graduates.
To deliver medium and long-term social and economic benefits to citizens and society in the state by improving local content inputs, building local capacity, improving energy efficiency and creating new jobs.
Improve the standard of electricity technicians and professionals in Lagos State and Nigeria.
Establish a Certification Scheme - to ensure that professionals have received and continue to receive a high level of training and experience.
To establish a Research and Development (R&) centre where new technology in Power generation, distribution and management can be developed.

Ikwokrikwo:
Fashola commissions generators and calls them power projects.
LMAO

porka:
You have to be totally objective yourself.

Federal government built 80% of Lagos.

Sea ports, airports, roads, bridges, hospitals, military barracks, university, other federal institutions etc.

Lagos was the capital of Nigeria until 1991 and that is responsible for the massive population.

There's no other state in Nigeria that the federal government investment so much on infrastructure.

Another elitist project commissioned to serve the interest of the affluent first, before the suffer heads. This same fashola commissionsed a power plant some months back that was biult to power JUST Alausa, his base!!! And we have some disoriented bunch of headless APC agberos all over here shouting Eko oni nonsense. . Do you guys realise that Lagos is richer than most West african states with better infastructure? Do you realIse that with her economic clout, Lagos should be biulding her own massive plants for all including for those at Ajegunle and not just for those in Ikoyi? Where are fasholas signature projects after 8 solid years in power? Clearing of Oshodi? Turning a white elephant project like the monorail into another Ajeokuta steel plant? Now he is commissioning china made generators as power plants! Paper weight political bimbos masquereding as the new messiahs. . .

OLISASDEJI:
Ode,tell me wat is ur president commisioning?If not generator. Of any power plant dat u will see any where in d world,which one is nt called a generator?Either u use diesel,water,natural gas,wind,thermal or even Tidal wave. All naa generator,as long as it convert one form of energy to rotational movement.Its called a generator. Abi u wan make i take u on Elementary physics again?U better go find better tin do.

rildwanullahi:
state government are not empowered to do that. L lasg were licensed only to provide power for their facilities such as described above

arresa:
Illiterate villager with worthless and unproductive governors, they've built 6 power plants and this is the only and first one in Lekki.

Even sef, the folks in lekki don't pay taxes..?




We are spending money building power plants to give uninterrupted power supply to our public institutions and facilities like water works because your crooked, corrupt and incompetent PDP and Jonascam looted us dry into continued darkness.

Btw, do they even have water works in your village to start with?

arresa:
The illiterates are just shouting generator left and right without even knowing the meaning... You just have to feel sorry for them sometimes..

arresa:
Village illiterate, it's not for consumers and the state can not generate and sell to consumers by law.


Even if it's 1MW, that's 1MW left in the National grid to benefit other Nigerians ...Mentally shallow and shortsighted people..

Primary school TaNoIDs...

owobokiri:
Keep mentioning some imported generator sets as power plants. . It is your way nah. I told you guys here in another thread that your clannish owanbeic/rankadede culture in this country is cheifly responsible for the laickadisical approach to fighting corruption amongst Nigerians.. Succintly put; you have infected the whole Nigeria with the horrible mentality that "to criticize your clan elder, is akin to pointing at your fathers house with your left hand"' and that "power comes from God" Terrible combo!! Hear yourself; 6 power plants. So why is it that after 6 power plants, you still need your private gen to exist in fasholas eldorado??

tit:
MUGUN,
ANYBODY USING THE ELECTRICITY GENERATED is a consumer.
How many Mega watts this fashole i-pass-my-neighbour dey generate?
How much did you tinubu, fashole embezzle in your pitiable attempts to hoodwink people.

lagosians are wiser now.
You, tinubu, your slowpoke boy ambode and fashole will be in kiri-kiri in the not distant future.

Boy101:
So you should ask our President what happened to 6 years of no light during his administration.

arresa:
The same state that was already built and developed before Nigeria sef get independence? Why did Nigeria picked Lagos state to be the capital?


DO they still teach social studies in Nigeria or you people are just ignorant?

Why d attack? I only bursted ur lies. How many kilowatt is ur generator producing cos am sure e no reach megawatt, and where is d source of gas that supplies it? Gas supply from trucks or did u see any gas pipeline to the generator house?

Na Diesel generators wan run Lagos?

Sodiumdawg:
[b]Now..... enough with the insults already!

Power generation is nothing without transmission and distribution.

Before PHCN Distribution was privatized, Federal Government was juggling all aspects of power production. Back then it was all their affair. now we have the Discos and TCN. The question now is: can state IPPs recoup monies spent on their projects?

Lagos State Government may try to supply Eko Disco and boost the grid, but does it get power to where it's needed? yes, they get money, but TCN can now route power to other parts of the country and Lagos is none the better for It!

With the people's interest in mind, Fash decided on a way to keep power generated, however little, within the state, serving key areas like water treatment plants. Now, the load such plants formerly took off the grid as supplied to Lagos by TCN is now free for Eko Disco to move to other parts of Lagos, while TCN are obliged to keep supplying the same MW to Lagos.

That, in the end, results in albeit marginal improvements in power supply which TANOIDS now claim as transformation!

I'm a professional who has spent ten years in the Power Sector, by the way, so choose your words carefully if you wish to debate the issue with me.

Bayswater:
Osinbajo said they will use tankers to supply gas to ipp plants, that's the policy thrust of the APC on power.

I know some people will clap and scream this is a novel idea.
Some will even come on Nairaland to state this as fact.

Unfortunately, Yemi osinbajo needs to be corrected that the gas power plants use is not the liquefied natural gas his tankers carry lol
He made a serious boob there, I wonder why the PDP guys did not call him out.

Sammiejokes:
