PROBE: N2.7tn Spent On Power Since Obasanjo’s Govt – Ministry by midolian(m): 4:36pm On Sep 08, 2015 |
The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Power, Mr. GoodKnows Igali on Tuesday said a total of N2.74tn has been spent on the power sector since 1999. He also said no engineer was employed in the public power sector for 11 years. Igali said this at the beginning of the Senate probe of the sector. According to him, the absence of proper investment in the sector prior to 1999 as well as acts of sabotage were largely responsible for the problems bedeviling the sector. He explained that from the 1900s, when power first came to Lagos, power generation and distribution remained in the hands of government until the sector was unbundled in 1999. Igali said, prior to 1999, “by law, even if you can generate power yourself, you cannot sell to your neighbour.” Details later… http://www.punchng.com/news/n2-7tn-spent-on-power-since-obasanjos-govt-ministry/ Lalasticlala |

The question to ask here is if OBJ never invested the money on the power project compared to the past clueless president that had to recommission OBJs power project. Trust the wailers to flood this thread with their usual wailing propaganda !!! |

midolian:OBJ has the primary blame. If he had stood against corruption the way PMB is now doing, Nigeria won't be in this mess. OBJ built the foundations of corruption in Nigeria, GEJ only built the structure and roofed it. 1 Like |

Nigeria was generating around 1,700MW as @ 1999. So, between then and 2015 (16yrs), PDP spent almost N3Trillion on Power but were only able to add 2,500MW to the National Grid. |
