you are right, the past government received more without doing anything, they received $1.1tr in 16yrs without a single project.
Buhari has received $94b and everything is going well.
Meanwhile, fashola is right that is not a rocket science but slow and steady.

I hope and pray in a daily for us to get it right as a nation someday.

shocked grin cheesy Guess it was also magic when you said "to provide 24hours electricity is not rocket science", "A serious government should solve the power problem within 6months" and "The only way to get stable electricity is to vote out PDP"?

So after all the propagandas Fashiola can not simply apologize to Nigerians for the woeful performance of his ministry, party & government

Instead he choose to insult our collective sensibility as a country.This man was simply an overhyped clueless wonder man. angry

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.”

For a man who had work in a complex formal environment you should have known better. You never respected Jonathan achievements everyone know there is no quick fix to anything. But you all were busy being politicians with the truth.

It was a shame on your part. But I still respect you. One of my favourite governors of all time.

Blind optimism. Did you see the osun elections? Did you see how abode was handpicked and removed without the consent of the electorate?. Did you see what happened to strong man fayose in ekiti.

Oga if you saw this things and you still feel the need to put faith in your electoral system under buhari. Then we just have to wait so you see one last time.
