sir I don’t need you to tell me. I regret each day being a black woman.


Being black limits you in many things, you won’t know this until you leave the shores of africa.

A Nigerian ought to have been the current world bank president but I won’t tell you the rest

7000Mw of power was sustained in 2018, having 11000Mw by 2023 won't be a bad idea. Na promise and fail we no go just like.

u don't need to...if the second Niger bridge is making progress,why won't power make progress..

mind u,the Niger bridge construction cost is almost worth same amount with mambilla dam construction

President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday unveiled a new power target for the country, following the signing of an electricity road map agreement between the Federal Government and German-based Siemens. The signing of the implementation agreement was held at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. The Director General of the Bureau of Public Enterprise (BPE), Dr. Alex Okoh signed on behalf of the federal government and the Chief Executive Officer of the Siemens, Mr. Joe Kaeser signed for the firm.
Meaning no light till you remove, what a scam president
The deal, our correspondent reports, was the product of a meeting President Buhari held with German Chancellor, Angela Merkel on August 31, 2018. Speaking after the signing, the president said the government’s goal was to deliver electricity to Nigerian businesses and homes. The president said: “My challenge to Siemens, our partner investors in the Distribution Companies, the Transmission Company of Nigeria and the Electricity Regulator is to work hard to achieve 7,000 megawatts of reliable power supply by 2021 and 11,000 megawatts by 2023 – in phases 1 and 2 respectively.

“After these transmission and distribution system bottlenecks have been fixed, we will seek – in the third and final phase – to drive generation capacity and overall grid capacity to 25,000 megawatts.” He said with the strong commitment to the development of Mambilla Hydroelectric and the various solar projects under development across the country, the long-term power generation capacity will ensure adequate energy mix and sustainability in the appropriate balance between urban and rural electrification. “Our intention is to ensure that our cooperation is structured under a Government-to-Government framework.

No middlemen will be involved, so that we can achieve value for money for Nigerians. We also insist that all products be manufactured to high quality German and European standards and competitively priced. “It is our hope that as the power situation improves, we will improve investor confidence, create jobs, reduce the cost of doing business and encourage more economic growth in Nigeria,” he said. The president said “Previous governments have explored state funded solutions through the ill-prepared National Independent Power Projects (NIPP). They also explored the installation of large emergency power projects. There was also the partial privatization of the power generation and distribution sectors.

“These various interventions to solving the electricity problem have yielded an imbalance between the amount of power generated and the amount available for consumers.” He said despite over 13,000 megawatts of power generation capacity, only an average of 4,000 megawatts reach consumers.

“Now, we have an excellent opportunity to address this challenge. This government’s priority was to stabilise the power generation and gas supply sector through the Payment Assurance Facility, which led to a peak power supply of 5,222 MW. Nonetheless, the constraints remained at the transmission and distribution systems.”

In an interview after the signing of the pact, the CEO of Siemens, said the partnership will enable the country enhance its power delivery capacity significantly. He said the power target will lead the country to the next industrial phase. Also speaking to newsmen, the Director General of BPE described Siemens as a credible partner. “If you look at the amount of losses that is being experienced in the entire power sector, they are huge.

“That is why we welcome this intervention and we believe that within the timelines that have been directed by Mr. President, we will be able to significantly improve power supply in the country,” he said.

Adonko:
Anything Buhari is a total waste of data reading it. I have never seen a dull and lazy president like Buhari in my entire life even idi Amin is far better that Buhari. Such incompetent and brainless human.

ihatebuhari:
Most useless country I’ve ever seen.


I live in a nation where the total power grid is over 1 gigawatts. It will never be well with Nigeria corrupt past and present leaders


I’ll keep on thanking my mom for making it possible for me and my siblings leaving that shithole


It will never be well with Nigeria for making a lot of potential youth jobless and risking their life for nothing, imagine a Nigeria with steady power supply!!!

Sister, am proud to be a black man, African for that matter and it might interest u to know that, at least in 2019 have visited 3 European nations and 5 cities.

Have sat down with my the whites and compete, do u know one edge I always have?

They usually under rate me, they usually dont count me as a competition, the usually see me as a walk over, most of u will see this as disadvantage

But not me, I see it as an edge, people never see me coming, I will beat them hands down b4 they know what hit them, my victory has always been sweet one

I don't expect respects, I earned them.

Am saddened to see u even regret been who u are and thats bad. We need to change this ideology of white skin supremacy ...

Sister, give them run for their money, shake them, show them ur head is hot.... Black is a colour and not a disease..

Like when I went to London business school, come on, I showed them what Africans are made up of at the end of the day I and other African guys and girls were respected ...
