Osinbajo orders 24 hours power supply for Ariaria Market Aba

Nigeria’s Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has directed the Federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing to intervene and ensure that the Ariaria International Market in Aba, Abia States, enjoys 24 hours supply of electric power.

The city of Aba is noted for its huge commercial activities, while the Ariaria Market is one of the most popular markets in the southern part of the country.
Mr Osinbajo’s directive, according to a statement issued on Tuesday by the Presidency, followed a “strong and persuasive case” made for the market by the Governor of Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu.

A team from the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) is said to have already visited the market for a technical study to collect data that would determine the market’s power requirements.

The leadership of various clusters in the market is said to have agreed to assist the REA with all the support required to implement the project.

The President, Aba Chamber of Commerce, Emma Nwakpadolu, thanked the acting president, the federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing, and the Abia State government for their plans for the market.

The federal government’s delegation to Ariaria was led by the Managing Director, REA, Damilola Ogunbiyi, while the Abia government delegation was led by Chinenye Nwogu and the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Public Communications, Sam Hart.

My brother every single households needs 24hours uninterrupted power supply but instead they'll decide to choose locations to favour

Light situations at my place is disheartening

Foolish comments like yours is why the government should not lift a finger in the SE.

You wail and complain everyday about marginalization and neglect by past administrations but whenever the current FG tries to do what your leaders have failed to do you post nonsense like this.

The FG can choose to neglect the entire SE as it has proven that the SE is negligible in elections.

Lol! Fight ke! Remind ke! Wake up dear.

Good morning

Clueless Government, We need fresh blood on sit not this old men sucking us dry!

Very dumb comments.
You think he would just say it and it would come to pass.

Generating 24 hour power supply for the whole nation is not just something you cam order if you choose to.

Instead the government has come up with a plan to strategically electrify key economic areas or areas with economic value with 24 hour power supply

Shut up.

Go and explain your phantom researches vis-a-vis the unsuccessful shuttling between ph and Lagos in search of jobs in abokii firms.

You have still not explained how "fictitious" ponzi scheme ended up funding a non fictitious adventures of the shuttlings.

A 50Mw power station should do the magic.

Osinbajo has always been a fan of modular generation of power.

So its only strategic areas in Naija that requires 24hours uninterrupted power supply...! Na wa o for these our kind of mentality. No wonder Nigeria is a dumping ground for all kinds of generators and polluted atmosphere

What a rocket science indeed

think within the context, with the amount of power we are generating we can't afford to give 24hrs power supply to all household but we can provide to key strategic places that would help in the growth of the economy. its a known fact that an industrious place like ariaria need steady power supply to assist with ingenious business there. it is just logic.

It's called prioritisation my friend, stop acting like you don't know what that means and stop nagging.

When there isnt enough resources (power) to go round, you prioritise and allocate more resources to key industrial locations. Shouldnt that be common sense?

Wow! Speechless Igbos will be like afonja how far.

The city of Aba is noted for its huge commercial activities, while the Ariaria Market is one of the most popular markets in the southern part of the country.

What commercial activity? He commercial activity the SE can't reflect in their IGR?


We're tired of the lies

If you want to see commercial activities go to Ibadan and Ogun states.

What a rocket science indeed

You are so dumb. Where are the funds to generate 24 hour power supply to the whole Nigeria?

Even when we the oil price was $120 per barrel and there was relative peace in the ND, why did the past governments not generate it?

Please think and be logical before typing.

The government should stop wasting funds on the Somali of Nigeria, Aba.... focus on Ogun that actually generates enough to feed the SE states.

That's how they tried to force made in Nigeria Aba Kabukabus and innoson on us, but we still no gree.

When a business makes sense, you don't need to force people to buy it.

These inorganic processes are wasting the country's funds.

Na today we begin hear news upon news.Political class don finish us.this 24hrs na half current or by next year.lie lie politicians.we just dey waste MB dey comment on useless and non action thread.We need to face this politicians.Massess should wake up
