[quote]The Federal Government has signed an agreement with German-based Siemens AG today on an electrification roadmap aimed at addressing the nation’s power crisis, our correspondent has learnt.

According to the video sighted by MandyNews.com, as shared by official Twitter handle of the president.

He wrote;

"Today, in partnership with the German Government and Siemens AG, we are making an important move forward in addressing Nigeria’s electricity challenge. Our goal is a simple one: to deliver more electricity to Nigerian businesses and homes.

My challenge to Siemens, our partner investors in the Distribution Companies, the TCN, and NERC, is to work hard to achieve the target of 7,000 megawatts of reliable power supply by 2021 and 11,000 megawatts by 2023 – in phases 1 and 2 of this initiative, respectively.

Our intention is to ensure that our cooperation is structured under a Government-to-Government framework. No middlemen will be involved, so that we can achieve value for money for Nigerians.

We also insist that all products be manufactured to high quality German and European standards and competitively priced.

This project will not be the solution to ALL our problems in the power sector. However, I am confident that it has the potential to address a significant amount of the challenges we have faced for decades.

It is our hope that as the power situation improves, we will improve investor confidence, create jobs, reduce the cost of doing business and encourage more economic growth in Nigeria."

I hope in 4-5 years time..we just have passed the stage of epileptic power supply

Kenya recently launched the largest windmill power plant in Africa.

Kenya of all people are going renewable energy..

I hope we soon get it right even if we have to go nuclear like our south African brothers

For the very first time in months Buhari is in the news for something positive.
