Nigeria’s Power Supply Drops By 385.65 Megawatts by References(op): 5:06pm On Jan 04, 2020

The power supply has dropped from 3,993.65 megawatts, MW, to 3,608 MW, indicating a drop of 385.65 MW, because of many challenges, including inadequate gas, poor transmission infrastructure and limited distribution facilities.

In its latest report obtained by Vanguard from the office of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, stated: “On January 2, 2020, average energy sent out was 3,608 MW/Hour (down by 385.65 MW from the previous day). 2,026.5 MW was not generated due to unavailability of gas.”

It added: “60 MW was not generated due to unavailability of transmission infrastructure, while 2,417.1 MW was not generated due to high frequency resulting from unavailability of distribution infrastructure. The power sector lost an estimated N2, 162,000,000 (Two Billion One Hundred and Sixty-Two Million Naira) on January 2, 2020, due to constraints from insufficient gas supply, distribution infrastructure and transmission infrastructure.”

An investigation by Vanguard showed that the development has compelled the Electricity Distribution Companies, DISCOs, to embark on loading nationwide.

Fraud of a government. Nothing they have been able to get right for 5yrs counting.

Nothing.

Rather everything has become worse in their hands.

Even a blind man knows Bubu has failed woefully. When a former head of state says he borrowed money to buy nomination form, foolish people celebrating poverty thought it was a sign of integrity not knowing it's a sign of lack of resourcefulness.
Do you wonder why Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world? Keep celebrating POVERTY!

And Osibanjo is busyy snapping pictures of where he is playing squash.

Wheres are the zombies headed by , coming and disgrace your generations defending this failure and disaster of a government.

This is a government that promised to provide power in six months, five years down the line, they cant even sustain what was handed over to them.

Indeed empty barrels makes the greatest noise.

I know something like this will surely happened when that cow that was appointed minister of darkness release a press that Nigeria should pray for him despite huge allocation budgeted to his ministry

to think the dude is an engineer beat my imagination, even Fashola that was a lawyer didn't have worse record like this. ever since he resumed office, the megawatt is rather retrogressing, no improvement

let Buhari keep appointing incompetent fools in the course of my people must dominate, the record will be there for him after his exit in 2023

So after 5 years of Buhari, Nigeria is still not generating more than 4000 MW of power. So Buhari has not added anything to what he inherited from GEJ. Buhari is the definition of incompetence. Shame on Fashola.
