Standing5:Sharap and never quote my comment if you are not here to learn from people with facts and information privy to only the ruling caucus who knows no political divide. Do you know what it cost to build a global transmission infrastructure Nigeria operate instead of the new generation captive system as recommended by experts for a country like Nigeria? |

rottennaija:this has been happening even before your pmb so why not say nigeria will succeed? |

LadyExcellency:Oh so because of cost implication the IB choose to secretly expand generation capacity. Where did you get this electric brain from? That is like a farmer saying because the capacity to transfer his harvest onwards to his customer is limited, he chose to increase planting and cultivation with guaranteed increased wastage in view. PDP killer Logic Obiagelli and co pls come see sumtin oh. |

This is proof that While Some wailers are online criticizing PMB, some others are actually in field venting their anger/frustration by sabotaging the economy. |

an independent dept should be created in ministry of power with a software to monitor power generation -who will report directly to the director in charge of network distribution and minister of power. a situation when the MD of any of the discos will not be able to sleep when he also get report from his own pple that they are transmitted below target cos he understands the consequence of queries and numerous sactions that will follow from Power Ministry. |

Obiagelli:This national grid is the bane of Nigerias power problems. They need to get it unbundled or decentralised. |
| Re: Power Distribution Firms Reject Supply From Generating Plants by Reference(m): 6:01pm On Mar 16, 2016 |
Abeg. Nigerians make una pay for services. This chicken and egg situation has got to stop. If power is generated and discos can't take it because people are not paying then the cycle of trust is broken and we all suffer. No one wants to run at loss. |

FOLYKAZE:Tell the governments in those LGA that rather than turn a deaf ear and blind eye to your predicament, they should contract people like me to provide some alternative source of electricity i.e. Solar electricity. They can't continue to share federal allocation within themselves |

Forget all this thing; Nigeria is a fraud. Fraud is our natural default position. This very electricity management model in this country is a fraud; it is unnecessary and unsuited for our environment. This model entails that some major stations generate the electricity and most need a complex and precarious network of gas piping to even function. After that, they transmit the generated power hundreds of kilometres all around to companies that then distribute them. It is the same mentality of our society regarding governance, that everything must emanate from a source (leader) and be distributed thence. We don't need that at all. In today's world, the money wasted on this electricity conundrum since 1999 (some mind-boggling billions of US dollars) could have supplied an excess of solar installations in small units all over people's homes and small solar farms in Nigeria. The power will emanate from the homes rather than be distributed to the homes. The home becomes the beginning of the journey rather than the end destination. The areas near sources of gas may continue to use gas as their major source of electricity and suffer any consequence of pipeline vandalisation. The places where water dams are situated will continue to use hydro power as their major source of electricity. In fact there is absolutely no reason why power issue should be a federal government issue - it should be within the responsibilities of each state to provide electricity to their citizens. I am a weak writer; this issue has a lot more detail than I can have the patience to write here but those in charge with all the PhDs know this but they love the power they wield over the population and don't want to give it up. There's a huge fraud in the system. Black man is insincere about bettering his society |

They want keep us in darkness and save cost. Some people are very devilish in their quest for money. |

LadyExcellency:Una don start abi? Tomorrow when this government achieves 10,000Mw wailers will point to this baseless assertion to claim credit for Uncle IB. Continue. At least we now see all resources and available power infrastructure being stretched to the limit through efficiency improvements in the generation area. Its just a matter of time before new projects come on stream... then we will take a step up from the embarrassing state of things in the past. Change! |

Get those involved arrested, we don't have time to tolerate nonsense |
| Re: Power Distribution Firms Reject Supply From Generating Plants by Nobody: 7:47pm On Mar 16, 2016 |
Obiagelli:I was thinking the same thing, the national grid should be unbundle into generating, transmission and distribution, as three different companies. |
| Re: Power Distribution Firms Reject Supply From Generating Plants by Nobody: 7:54pm On Mar 16, 2016 |
Reference:U just said the truth, many Nigerians don't pay for power, I hv seen this myself. And they want adequate power supply, complaining that the govt is bad, and they want change from the govt when they can not change themselves. |

IzonOwei:6k mega watts is very tiny fracture of what Nigeria need, we need about 120k mega watt to hv constant light in this country. |

charliboy654:if at 6k mw people are not paying for their power supply, forcing the Discos to reject power supplied to them, forcing the Gencos to shut down, how would we ever get to the 120k mw mark? na awuf mentality dey worry us as a nation. for the records i pay my power bills, which as at last month (feb 2016) stood at N4,347.55 for 228kwh. |
