FASHOLA Within four years in POWER YOU hair is now full of GRAY
Compared to your physical and dark shining hair and dark while governing Lagos State Governor

Itulah:
The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola, has said electricity supply in the country is improving slowly and that power problems cannot be solved by magic.

Total power generation stood at 3,729 megawatts as of 6am on Wednesday, according to latest data obtained by our correspondent from the ministry.

Transmission Substation, Lagos, commended the Transmission Company of Nigeria for the ongoing projects across the country.

“We have come to hand over this expanded transmission substation, the Ejigbo Transmission Substation, to the Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company. This substation was built in 1970; the capacity was 60MVA then; except for the addition of another 60MVA, this community has grown exponentially; so they have exceeded the installed capacity here,” he stated.

The minister said President Muhammadu Buhari knew the substation required an expansion, adding that the capacity had been increased from 120MVA to 300MVA.

He stated, “Between that time and when President Buhari came three years ago, some people were there. But they will come back to you; so, when they come back, ask them if they didn’t know where to buy transformers.

“The problem of electricity is slowly being solved, one by one. Anybody will tell you he will do magic; tell him, ‘How?’ He should explain to you. We inherited 800 containers for power equipment left in the port for 10 years. President Buhari gave us approval, and we have recovered 690.”

According to Fashola, there are 90 transmission projects ongoing across the country, and some of the recovered of pieces equipment are being used for them.

“If you look at it, between 2015 and now, you ask yourself honestly: Are you spending more on diesel now or before? Are you running your generators for longer today or yesterday? So, are you seeing the power slowly staying longer? If you are truthful to yourself, you will know that it is better than yesterday. And we haven’t finished,” he said.

The Managing Director, TCN, Usman Mohammed, said the installation of the two units of 100MVA transformers at the Ejigbo Transmission Substation was funded by the World Bank through the firm’s project management unit.

He stated, “With the increase in the Ejigbo substation’s capacity, the TCN has substantially increased bulk electricity available in the substation for the Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company to take to its customers. Consequently, electricity consumers in Ejigbo, Egbe, Oke-Afa, Shasha, Ikotun, Ijegun, and Idimu town will now have improved power supply from Ikeja Electric.”

“Other benefits include relieve of some overloaded feeders in Egbe, Shasha and Oke-Afa. Also, the Lagos airport will now have more load allocated to it. Improved power supply in these areas will positively impact the socio-economic development of the areas in particular and the economy at large.”

Mmlanrehh:



Truth be told Fashola has done so much. But Nigeria is not a country where everything will turn around just like that . It a gradual process that why am sincerely not happy with PMB, I have trust issues so once I trust u with my mandate I expect u to deliver. PMB promised heaven and Earth and he failed woefully, An giving big UPS to Oga Fash he has done so well to an extent.

ayobamiakinrind:


Fashola believed it can fixed in 6 months and you're defending him?
If it's not rocket science, then the SAN ought to have fixed it by now.

Super Minister!

YorubaEmir:


I am Igbo and I'm Atikulated. Only A4nja Muslims think otherwise

Mmlanrehh:
And he was running his mouth before the 2015 general election .

Franklyspeakin:
The more u continue to attack that ethnic group especially when you mention Biafra the more offended the ethnic group generate hatered for buhari. Attack him with points not with ethnicity. No matter how disconnected from the call for Biafra a neutral Igbo man is, they get offended when phrases like "jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of bia-fra terrorist" are used in describing igbos. I have been told this by several Igbo Co workers.

buhariguy:
you are not igbo,
You are a jobless aggressive lazy terrorist.
Igbos love buhari and 75% from the SE will vote for buhari and 25% are y
The jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of bia-fra terrorist that are atikulating.

mushystuff:


Do u actually understand the usage of that phrase 'rocket science'?
I'm sure you don't otherwise you wouldn't have made this ignorant statement.

buhariguy:
have you see anybody that see the end of trouble that did not start by him.
That was what fashola was saying that is not supposed to be a rocket science,
If fashola was the one that sold Nepa, in less than 6months all this problem would have be solved.
Even the ineffectual buffoon that sold the Nepa to his wife and cronies also misunderstood fashola, that rocket science could not fix Power in 6months.
This gej supposed to be flog nake in the market place across the country.

"A serious government will fix power problems in 6 months" - Fashola (during run-up to the 2015 general elections.


Today, the same man has this to say on his inability to fix power problem "Anybody will tell you he will do magic; tell him, ‘How?’


APC lied their way to power in 2015. They DECEIVED you!

No more excuses and empty promises this time, Nigerians are wiser (except BMCs of cause).

Let's try someone else, we have seen that the APC thinks propaganda is all that is required to govern a country.

gaby:
Hmmm...

I thought to fix the country's electricity needs "wasn't rocket science".

Welcome to the world of reality.

If a government that prides itself in prudence and judicious management of the nations scarce and meagre resources would say this, then you can imagine the regimes that were given the award for invading our commonwealth as we have been made to believe.

Una must give us light oo

Enjoy my siggy
