Lol in debt didn't deprive her from investing in more capital project.

USA is the most indebted country. What are u saying? So because they have debt mean they don't have finance to invest in capital project?? Not as u think bro

Niger state thats suppose to be power state no dey get light. Na to collec tax na im dey their head. Mad people

I think south east will do well in energy supply with the huge gas in the region sha dat my own the region if it invest in energy supply they will do well sha

mmsen:


Lagos can barely handle transport for the population that it is.

Can barely handle sanitation.

The idea that they will become wizards when it comes to electricity is laughable.

Lagos is really trying bro. Lagos is getting no special revenue from federal government as it contribute majorly to vat and other federal government revenue.
Massive capital project in lagos are ongoing presently, the capital project will serve as a way to increase the state IGR massively.
Then maybe we can now start talking of subways to add to the blue and red line rail.
Besides electricity is a massive capital project that will take lagos to her promise land, competing with other nations. So a wise government will take full advantage

i'm sorry, did i miss something?

was there a new law that now allows states generate and use their own electricity?

Fail analysis ..... kudos

richiemcgold:
Even before the new law, Lagos has already been investing in IPP for years. This new law will now enable it to get better.
Ondo state too has a power plant project at Ore, but the power generated there are not for households; it is only for industries at Ore industrial park.
There's Bonny Island too in Rivers state. They have never relied on national grid; they generate their power independently.

I know Anambra will do well with Gas.

Enugu will do with coal.

You can add others.

Ibo....Y.ibo! Yiiiiiibo.

Coal. Come on!

Osun and ilorin(kwara) will do well with electricity

Generation is not the problem but delivering the electric energy produced to end users through transmission and distribution networks that states don't have control.

Iju ishaga Elliot, agbado , crossing been experiencing crazy power supply recently with just an hour supply and they take the light away, not even this hot period..my question is why do we have to pay for something we are not getting ..fuel no dey , Power supply e no dey abeg wetin dey happen

CoronaVirusPro:
Definitely Lagos!

she has the finance!

with more money spend, thing is Lagos doesn't had a wall, oil walls, nor gas reserves,

anyway, let's see as it goes

I know of Imo state and Akwa Ibom. Rivers state, Delta state, Kano, Lagos will also do well because they can raise the funds to carry out this. Other states aside this above 6 na question mark. Although Abia state has geometric already in the pipeline

is this a joke??

post=110697463:
Anambra will be one of the states the revolution will start, with governor elect, we have enough man power that will key into the project, people like, Oilserv, Nestoil, Orient and Seplat, we are also blessed with huge gas reserve

which gas reserve for where?

Anchuna:

Good point. Although I think the intent of the new clause in the constitution is to enable states generate and distribute with existing networks if they also choose. States do not have to create new distribution networks.

Sobif Lagos state creates an IPP and contracts with EKEDC to supply into its network, EKEDC can then distribute.

Before now, electricity generated by a lagos IPP would need to go into the national grid and would not be dedicated to the residents of Lagos. That's the difference now I believe.

This way they also bypass national transmission infrastructure. However, if EKEDC then has too much electricity, it can then on sell into the national grid. Or if Lagos IPP produces 800MW and EKEDC only needs 600MW, then the balance can go into national grid.

ProudImolite:

Many people have forgotten that the gas belongs to FG not state. Although FG and State and oil companies can collaborate and sign agreements, but people on here just saying this state has this and the other state has that doesnt make stuff automatic

Lagos no doubt, by the time Lagos starts collecting their VAT, they will look like a different country from the rest of us, I just pity the core north, if they don’t sit up and elect leaders based on competence instead or religion, dem go hear am. That’s why we need state police as soon as possible

yes, there was a new constitution amendment to that effect passed on Tuesday

i would've said ebony state but it's unfortunate that umahi is leaving next year

CoronaVirusPro:

Lol. Jos has been stable electricity for a long time.

Ojiofor:
Geometric Power Limited already doing that in Abia state.

I was about to bring this up. A lot of people on nairaland don't know a thing about Aba only what they are fed.

Goddyj:
This is the first time you're posting something that is not about IPOB and Biafra. This account has been hacked

. Hahahahahahahahaha@ this account has been hacked hahahaha

LegendHero:
I will tip Lagos state because they have the purchasing power to consume the power for the sponsors to reap benefit or break even.

Power generation is very expensive and for the state to break even, they must have citizens that can afford it in their multitudes.

If NBS gives us the correct data of states residents purchasing power, that can help each governor to understand what it will feel like if they embark on such huge projects.

Governors will now start campaigning with “I will give this state 24hrs electricity and bla bla bla”. Looking forward to that honestly.

You are right but it depends on how the power is generated. The problem still is, the natural resources are been controlled by the federal government. Anambra has enough gas but FG will determine how much they will get it as fuel to generate the electricity...meaning the masses will still pay for the huge cost. The solution to Nigeria as a country is let every state manage her resources, trust me ONE NIGERIA will start making sense to everybody.
