Jonathan privatized PHCN. He sold to cronies.

Privatization should not be a problem at all if it is done well and with sincerity.

When you ignore bidders who have vast knowledge about power and sell to businessmen who know nothing about power, your effort is bound to fail and cost the country dearly.

I hate that comment.

God has finished His work in Nigeria by blessing the country with natural and human resources.

What we do with those is entirely our business...not His.

That ours is a religious country doesn't mean we should lose our senses.

I wonder if the whole Ghanaians prayed before having uninterrupted power supply.
Re: Minister Of Power, Saleh Mamman Begs Nigerians To Pray For Him To Succeed by bid4rich(m): 2:11pm On Aug 22, 2019
I dont think prayer can work if you dont have the capacity (skill) and knowledge required to succeed.

Ask any pilot, do they pray to fly a plane?

It will be a waste of spiritual exercise if you dont possess the necessary skills. And what you should do at the point is to resign honourably

Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman Begs Nigerians To Pray For Him To Succeed In His New Role

The newly-appointed Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, has asked Nigerians to pray for him to succeed in his new role.

Mamman was announced as the new Power Minister when President Muhammadu Buhari inaugurated his second term cabinet in Abuja on Wednesday, August 21, 2019.

While speaking later during a reception organised in his honour by a committee of friends, the minister asked Nigerians to pray for him.

"What I need from Nigerians at this time is prayers. I have just been appointed Minister of Power, so I have nothing much to talk about or say than for Nigerians to pray for me to succeed," he said.

Mamman's assignment came as a surprise to some as the ministry was previously under the stewardship of former Lagos governor, Babatunde Fashola, who was reappointed and also sworn in for another stint in Buhari's cabinet on Wednesday.

Fashola was the Minister of Power, Works and Housing during Buhari's first term between 2015 and 2019. However, he returns only as the Minister of Works and Housing.

The Power Ministry holds a lot of political implications as the country has failed for decades to adequately supply electricity to its estimated population of 200 million people.

While the Buhari-led government has identified improving power supply as a key to improving economic growth, growth in the power industry has been sluggish with many parts of the country still deprived.

While delivering his remarks on Wednesday, Buhari urged the new ministers to work tirelessly for Nigerians to achieve a future where they can reach their full potential.

Idiots.

Prayers do not generate electricity.

You don't need any body's prayer, all you need is the will to do what is right. Focus on serving the people and not selfserving.

It's only in Nigeria you hear such statements from appointed public officer, they should pray for you to succeed, please don't drag prayer into this what you need to succeed is to do and make the right decision without compromising your conscience and office, God or prayer will not force you to do the right thing, you have your conscience that's already been given to you by God

If u like let it b ur last or first response. I didn't give u an opinion. I only asked u a simple but practical question. Which country in d world has succeeded because its citizens like u prayed for Gods guidance for its leaders?
Re: Minister Of Power, Saleh Mamman Begs Nigerians To Pray For Him To Succeed by IamCharles123: 2:21pm On Aug 22, 2019
He will obviously not succeed.
Talking like this means he's scared and has failed already.

privatization has not succeeded in the power sector due to the way it was fashioned out, generation n distribution was privatize but transmission remained a monopoly where all generated power must be evacuated by the sole transmission company,so what is happening now is that while the power generation has increased, transmission capacity is lacking,due to poor metering right from the onset n the enormous amount of money required to resolve it without the discos been allowed to determine tarrif has added up to make the power business unattractive to investors,no business man will like to put his money where he is not sure of returns, government should increase the amount of power private bodies can generate, transmit n distribute from 1mw to at least 5mw, allow the power investors to fix tarrif or provide meters on a pay-as-you-use basis,the Telecom sector succeeded because of the freedom they enjoyed.
