For the fisrt time I want to agree that this is TRUE,since I came back from the hospital after the delivery of my daughter last week friday, they have not taken the light I even forgot at a point about my generator,and whenymy wife reminded me I bought fuel inside it but haven't used it till. For the first I admit GEJ DID SOME WORK HERE.
I lived on Zauzau street, barnawa kaduna south,kaduna.

hi,nice meeting a nairalander so close to me. I stay at p2 road..shagari estate barnawa.

True. Power supply in my area in port Harcourt has greatly improved in the last one week. GEJ is working.

#Nyesom Wike will do more for us in rivers state
Vote Nyesom 2015#

Some of us do notice dis improvement but we are jst S̶̲̥̅ơ̴̴͡ cursed on raining insult on our leaders even wen d are right. As for mi and anybody leaving in North Bank Makurdi Benue state can attest to dis to b true

ROSSIKE:

[size=15pt]HOW DO YOU KNOW IT IS A LIE?[/size]

because hours of light supply have decreased drastically around the place I do live and work

4600mw is too small 4 a country with 160million pple. Countries with less than half of our population generate much more electricity abeg mk una stop all dis nonsense propaganda mk pesn see road,yeye dey smell

Where is the power generated going to cos we have not seen any improvements in electricity generally, it wa even better off before

Rossike u need to be more civil in your responses.
While the situation may not have improved for some others it may have improved in your area. My area in portharcourt for example, the situation is worse. I cant tell if the issue is localized or not.
I dont think most of the complainants here are lying. A few might be exaggerating but they CANNOT all be lying.
Stop making personal insults and Allow people air their grievances.

i av notice dat nearly all the south-west states of nigeria dont av stable electricity,but why? Is it becouse of political party(politriking) ? Cos dos states are apc admin state...It z only northern and eastern part of nigeria dat av stable and improving electricity...pdp lead admin av fail dis country...

lite dey lagos wella...and in akure d two states i live in! If there is no lite in other states..speak to d electricity company in charge of ur area! Stop ur brain frm enslavin u..use it

This GEJ administration is overhyped! imagine the publicity for just 4600mw when Yaradua promised us 6000mw before December 2009. Here we are in 2014 celebrating 4600mw. are progressing or regressing? Before one say anything now those annoying group (Tan) will be at your feet. Nigerians need to wise up!

stinggy:


Azzzzinn I thought i'm the only one that remembers that.

These people can be so shameless in their lies.

In the space of weeks

Kaiii, god will see us oooo

and both of u are d ones who didnt read d article where d steps taken was bodly written! E pellle o

There s really an improvement in power sector, I m now paying the bill without complaining cos I m seeing the light I m paying for.

bendovex:
People can be stupid sha. So, just because ur area doesn't have light,probably because of faulty transformer or vandalized power equipment, u now want to generalize it abi?. I stay at fadeyi estate osogbo, and we've had constant light for weeks. Truth

Osun state has always enjoyed light except for ila orangun, so if u wnt 2 no maybe there is improvement in the electricity u should visit ila orangun

FG of my a** pls can u STFU? even d hair on my head wen struck together can produce more current Dan ur useless mega stations.
We can't even boast of Low current here in Kubwa "FEDERAL CAPITAL TERRITORY" A beg change topic.

4600mw is too small for nigeria. you ve got to do better.

chai...acidiosis,u disappoint me with this ur comment.i stay in ogun state,agbado-ifo local govt and 6dayz now and counting there has been no light in my area...just imaging,where we av light for 1day(14hrs only) on and 1day off and this useless govt said light has improve,what improvement is that

.That means your transformer is faulty.I stay in Oyo state and must tell you that Light has improved drastically so I don't why u ppl derive joy in lying#.

There is improvement in Light here in OYO STATE so stop hating.

There is improvement in Light here in OYO STATE so stop hating.If there is no light in your area that means your Transformer or wire is faulty and Fg cannot do that for you.shikena

The major problem of the power sector apart from power generation is obviously distribution of power.
From all the comments so far, I can conclude:
1.Power generation has improved greatly.
2. The generated power has been poorly distributed.
3. The statistics are right.

I want the govt to improve on the distribution evenly.

Thumbs up on this.

*covers face in shame*

S.A ...a country of 54m people,generates 50,000+mw and here is a country of 170m+ population celebrating a mere 4600mw of electricity.

story story...story. once upon a time...time, time.

bjt:
Those celebrating 17hrs or more of power supply should ask themselves one question. Can the 17hrs of power supply be sustained for just 1 week? They are just rationing it. They will soon take and give to other areas that doesn't have now. Let's stop deceiving ourselves

.Oga GEJ try in the area of power sector assuming other past govern.had tried a bit like things would have been best by now so this man is trying despite the Hausa/fulanis frustrating him except if you choose to him o cos here that I live Light has improved.

folahann:
See oh. No light since Monday. The whole of South West have been in blackout for a week. Some 2 weeks

.Oga which south west?is Oyo state not south west again?Oga there light here o stop hating#

Y person go dey lie lik dis 4600mw cor 4mw ni we nigerians knw its not mor dan 1500mw since 1999

Chicheey:
.Oga which south west?is Oyo state not south west again?Oga there light here o stop hating#

is it osun dats controlling oyo state light. Cos wat he's sayin is true

We shall believe that when will see the effects

Nigerians and their pulling down syndrome! Smh. I can testify to the increment in power generation and supply. In my area in ph we have nothing less than 20 hours of light daily and this has been going on for months unless equipments that distributes goes faulty.

Those who have not been able to tap into this fresh air from the FG are faced with either vandals operating in their locality or faulty equipments that limits the supply of power.

Politicizing Petie issues, being persimistic and blaming GEJ for everything is getting irritating and outright childish. The FG has done it's bit in generating which it could do better no doubt, it's now left for your various privatized distribution companies to give the citizens access to electricity. Yet some are quick to point fingers at the FG without consulting their distribution units? Lack of knowledge or hypocrisy

Critics need to learn where and how to channel their grievances through the right channels and not always comes off as a dunce.

sage2:


Do you expect APC supporters in the mold of berem and others to click "like" even if they are having 24 hrs power supply?

Lol..@ least we have sincere nairalanders nwww!!

Go and pay your 'NEPA' bill


*jokin o

For as many of you who for hatred/ ethnic/ religion or political reasons have experienced improvement in power supply but chose to cast aspersions on GEJ government on power reforms and claim that power has gone worse...I WISH YOU DARKNESS FOR LIGHT since that is what you believe.
