Removing subsidy is necessary but it has to be done within a reasonable time due to sensitivity and undue hardship it may bring to the common man.

They probably have to get the refineries working first then systematically remove it as promised

I like the realistic power generation target as it can be easily measured year on year

This is a no-brainer:
"7. A very LEAN government is the focus; this will involve resolving overlapping and redundant MDAs; largely in line with the Steve Oronsaye presidential committee report; this report was available to GEJ’s government but the will to implement it was absent"

Oga, OBJ set the regulatory/institutional framework for power reform .

kenex4ever:
who is this one? Obj was a complete failure as a president.
.
Now u want to bring up a lie
Mind u, if u keep repeating this lie of urs over time some ignorant people may think it's d truth.
Please stop it now.

The APC will be the majority in the house in the next dispensation. So passing the budget shouldn't be that much of a bottleneck after finetuning certain grey areas. Abeg October seems like eternity to begin to see any changes. Buhari this is not what we agreed na,you promised to hit the ground running. Lately i've noticed how you've been lowering expectations with anecdotes like 'i am not a miracle worker', 'i can't promise to find the girls', 'i can't promise to end boko haram in two months' etc,etc.
This is a complete turn around for someone who vowed to send down fire from heaven to cleanse the entire country and turn it into a paradise. Anyways, we'll be watching and listening with rapt attention. In any event,i still want you to do well because at the end of the day,a prosperous Nigeria will still be to the greater good of all Nigerians and by extension,Africa.

All the laws around the power reform were instituted during OBJ regime, Most of the IPP started their construction in his regime too.

kenex4ever:

Demdem:
How i wish Jonah-daft can just leave that seat tomorrow and allow the General to commence work immediately.

This is the most sensible thing to do, no way the incoming govt. will work with this 90% recurrent expenditure budget when it has plans for quality capital development.
They must have a formidable capital overlay for such projects to get a kick-start.
Besides, I expect them to slash the NASS budget from N150bn to a max. of N50bn, with further plans to make them earn like Perm secs at most in the near future. Those criminals must go and find a proper day job to earn a living instead of feeding fat on our patrimony.

GMB has got the Clue . . . Just surround yourself with purposeful peeps and everything will fall into pleasant places. Nigeria shall be great again.

Sweetguy25:
They're now trying to use the non passage of the budget as a cover up to mask their inefficiencies. If the budget seems to be a problem, they should tell GEJ, a supplementary budget will be passed now and Buhari will pass a standard budget when he takes over. Nigerians don't have time, we can't wait till october for you start being serious.

Buhahahahaha...I have always said governing Nigeria is not rocket science...most of our leaders just make it look complex so they can loot the nation.
See how articulated and practical GMB is. This is a selfless leader who has sort wisdom. They have revealed these strategies to uscto show us they are ready to work and be accountable at the same time.

And if they do not deliver, we change them again and again and again till our nation gets it right.

So glad to be part of the change generation.

Arysexy:
11. While power reform has been commendable, and will continue, the approach will change. Transmission will be deregulated, regionalized and privatized in order to break down centralized transmission; issues of gas supply to Gencos will be addressed but the new government believes that DISCOs are the biggest bottlenecks presently; the government plan to add-on 4,000 MW of power every year and expect that output will be a minimum of 12,000 MW at the end of term of this mandate


The above can only be a tall dream. I repeat a tall dream.

Quote me after 2019. The same mistake Goodluck made.

Under estimate d rot in power industry at ur detriment.

The transmission infrastructure can't even carry 5000MW of power and this is a highly capital intensive aspect of power generation, transmission and distribution.

Buhari just exposed himself too early

vanunu:
Is it not the same subsidy that jona tried to remove and there was serious demonstration against him in the north and south west.

Deregulation of transmission lines should not be a priority for now, it should be left with the company that is managing it.

galadima77:
u shall be great too

You remind me GMB Promised to declare his assets.
