Nairaland / General / Re: Why NIGERIA Lacks Constant Electricity (GET ENLIGHTENED) by ope0409: 9:06pm On Jun 04, 2016
Don't let us be deceived, we are not getting it right..far from being right. As at today(03/06/2016), the total energy generated from the grid is about 4760MW, far below the OP's acclaimed 10,000MW generated. (I wonder where the 10,000MW came from anyways)..

We have five (5) active power generating stations in Nigeria, namely: AFAM(1962), SHORORO(1990), UGEHI(1996), KAINJI/JEBBA(1968&1985), SAPELE(1978). Well, tell me how power supply can be steady in Nigeria when the last power generating station built was in 1996(UGEHI-STATION). Kindly ignore those new generating plants our leaders claimed they built. They are only blowing false news. Take for example, the Olorunsogo generating station, till now, the station has no PRMS. Can such plant add anything to the GRID? You cannot improve a system without adding more to the available system..

I agreed that the shortage of power supply could be linked with the Niger-Delta Avengers, since most of our generating stations run on Gas. I will not subscribe to the saying that the shortage could be linked to the lack of transformers. Transformers are devices mearnt to step down voltages,(in the case of distribution) tell me, what are you stepping down when the available voltages are not even there.

All the generating stations we have are all connected to the GRID. It is step up to 330KV from the grid, before it is transmitted to different injection substations. The solutions to our insufficient power supply is in the hands of our leaders.

1. Most of our transmission lines(330KV) are bad, sagging and wore out,. Vegetations(tress, forest) have over-powered our tnx lines. There should be routine maintenance on all the 330KV TNX Lines, clearing of vegetations regularly.

2. Nigeria run a Radial transmission network, the implication of this is that, once a Line is out, the total area serving under that line is gone. Let take for example, if there is a phase fault on the 132KV line linking Lagos to Ogun, the whole of Ogun State will not have power supply. The Radial system is old, advance countries are now into Mesh system. Even if we cannot subscribe to the Mesh system like USA, we can stick to Ring network like SA.

3. Let each state have her own generating Station, and let them contribute some MW to the grid, this will be for the less privilege state ( state that cannot afford to build a station).

4. See, let the government change all the distribution network in the country, we need to re-string a well planned 415 lines.

5. New generating station should be build, we shouldn't rely much on gas. We can build hydro, thermal, waste, solar or even invest on nuclear reactor, the newly built stations will compliment the existing ones.

6. We can also help the government, let every house pay for the KWH used. Pay your electricity bill

Thank you.

Nestle HRM was there yestderday and so many people weren't aware..

Yesterday at GIS job fair was fun, for me, it was well organized but a lot of home work still needed to be done by the Federal Government. Most of the employees who came were only looking for sales agents and marketers, it was an opportunity for them to acquire cheap labours and errand slaves. I was expecting to see several multinational companies being partners of this scheme but it was the opposite, please tell me, apart from Nestle, which other multinational companies came, this was where the Federal government got it wrong. Some of the employees don't even understand the aim of the scheme, or, how do you explain a situation where an employee was asking for a skilled graduate with 5years of experience in graphics art design? The solution to this issue is very simple. FG should mandate all the multinational companies in the country to join the scheme,not one should be exempted, their HR must attend all job fairs, and graduates who show interest should matched..simple as ABC

The selling price of an android phone is N60,000. This price was 20% greater than the cost to produce the phone. How much did it cost to produce the android phone and what was the profit?

300 for just ship design or including welding and ship construction?
For all, or even less than that

taiwolusol:

A bachelor degree is not the requirement for either Welding and Steel Erection or Ship construction. Guess that's why you didn't get the test invite

Yes, those who have B.eng/Hnd wrote for ship design, OND wrote for ship construction and the SSCE did for welding

i must commend samsung/LNG/City-guilds for a well organised Aplitude test yesterday. The questions were well structured. i never knew someone could sit down and set such a standard questions on autocad..50 questions, all on autocad design. Those guys seriously mean business. we need more of such serious minded people in this country.
