FASHOLA: I Didn’t Promise Regular Power In Six Months by PROPHETmichael(op): 1:33am On May 25, 2016
The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN), has denied ever saying as the then Governor of Lagos State that if given a chance, he could fix the problem of electricity in Nigeria within six months.

Fashola, who was speaking during a programme on the Nigerian Television Authority Network on Tuesday, which was monitored by our correspondent, urged those crediting the statement to him to stop peddling falsehood.

The minister challenged anyone with a recording of where he had boasted that he could provide regular electricity to Nigerians within six months to publish such, insisting that he had only promised that he could supply a community in the Lekki area of Lagos with power from an Independent Power Project in the state within six months with the permission to do so.

He said, “I have heard that I said that electricity problem will be solved in six months. I have never made the statement. Anybody who has a video of where I said this should please make it public. The point I made was when I was handing over the Lekki IPP because we had about 10 megawatts of power there.”

Mr Fashola, you may not have directly promised regular supply in six months but i remember you saying, "a serious government will fix the power problem in six months". So is this an indictment on this administration that they are not a serious government?

See how foolish APC people are, someone who wants to supply power to a single community is now been made to supply power to the whole Federation comprising of uncountable communities. What a Shame. undecided

That's the real truth. Fash never promised he will solve Nigeria's power problems in 6 months.

I remembered when he made that statement when he commissioned an IPP in the Island.

He was speaking to Lagos that he could and not to Nigeria.

Those who followed events back then in Lagos would know that the discos frustrated his efforts to extend his IPP projects to the masses and also because power generation was in the exclusive list of the FG.

“So, let no one say that he has no money to deliver power for the entire country. This is the limit to which the law allows us to do, but we have done this to make a statement that power can be generated."

Re: FASHOLA: I Didn’t Promise Regular Power In Six Months by proeast(m):
Foolish man, when serious people like Barth Nnaji was about to give us uninterruptible power supply, this mofo thought it was easy, he even went as far as saying that it was not rocket science to give Nigerians steady power supply, now that the mantle has been passed to him, he has realised that it is not just rocket science but nuclear & extra terrestrial science! Whatever reputation he garnered when he was governor of Lagos would have been effectively destroyed by the time he lives as the minister of power. Yeye dey smell.

Fashola should stop these lies.......
where are the lies? U guys are dunces... grin grin

Did it even take up to six months before the improvements in power supply in the country?

In the history of Nigeria, we peaked at more than 5k mw. Now. Is it his fault that your primitive clan is blowing up pipes that supply to the plants?

Are you guys deliberately dumb or just naturally stupid?
