Politics / Re: Power Sector Illegally Sold, Fashola Says by Uokhaboy: 6:53pm On Jun 01, 2016
aresa:



Cancel or review, it won't change anything or produce 1 extra MW.

You can not get stable electricity without investments in the system by the DISCO. The DISCOs don't have money to invest and banks wont give them money hence raising the tariffs for them to generate funds.

You can not get stable electricity till you have enough power plants and generating capacity above 50,000MW.

You can not get stable electricity while depending on oil and gas installations that terrorist destroys all the time.



Nigerians are the most unrealistic people with serious case of self denial..


Well said sir. . . The discos agreed, do not have money to invest .. So why was PHCN sold to them? Answer-for fraud as was evident with Jonathan's rule.
They were so much in a hurry to buy PHCN amongst themselves because they saw it as '' Goldmine''. What have we seen till date? Not a single investment by the discos. They ( discos ) are even refusing to roll out prepaid meters because they want to remain the thieves that they are.
My take - if Buhari really is interested in tackling CORRUPTION LET HIM VISIT THE POWER SECTOR NOW AND LEAVE A LEGACY. REVERTING THE SALE IS THE WAY FORWARD.
The people who bought PHCN are holding Nigerians by the jogular and all they think and breath is money , money and more money.
Buhari should save the common man not minding who's ass is gored.

I am sorry, I do not respond in detail to people without class
Good afternoon.

You can disagree with me without likening me to a bovine.

And FYI....if Buhari reversed the whole privatization thing...which is what you seem to want....the government would be taken to court by the power DISCOS andf GENCOS...and sued for heavy sums. Which the court would grant. (Contracts, eh)>

Next time, do try not to insult people you disagree with. Thank you.

I do not agree with your stand. You thing sueing the government is now their weapon?. Then they can as well just refuse to give people electricity and continue to distribute bills and use police and army to collect money for services not rendered.
I want to believe these discos and gencos signed service agreement for 2 or 3yrs as probation period. It is obvious they failed and their license can be withdrawn. The truth is people who are involved are powerful if not stronger than the govt. Or why have they refused to give people prepaid meters even when this was a condition given to them to accomplish within 18months?.
Are they not stronger than the Government?

In response

1.In 2014....GEJ privatised power supply in Nigeria, with a planned increase in the power bill to come later on.

Once power was privatised in Nigeria....price increases were just a matter of time.

Or where do you think that DISCOS and GENCOS are going to get money to improve power supply.? From the banks or from the sky?

And why are you blaming APC for something PDP put in place one year before APC took over? Do you expect APC to terminate the agreement...with the govt having to pay heavy sums in compensation to aggrieved DISCOS and GENCOS? Some of you guys need to think!.

2.Even if all our refineries were working at full capacity....we still need to import 23million liters of refined fuel daily.

We also need new refineries.....which all take time to build.

When GEJ was in power for five years....the same refineries were still messed up.And he did nothing. He had high oil prices....and he did not even start building one new refinery. And looting of our crude was still going on.

Why did you not complain then?

Does it take ten months to repair refineries that have been messed up for decades? Does it take ten months to build three to four new refineries? Answer?

And now thanks to the fall in oil price.....and thanks to the past government failing to save when oil prcies were sky high.....we do not have enough cash to import fuel. Why do you think NNPC took over fuel imports in this country? Because marketers cannot source for scarce forex without massively raising prices.

Some of you opponents are so bitter you refuse to think And you call us thoughtless non existent creatures!

Abeg.....park well.

Well said. The simple truth -this electricity issue and the situation we are in now is the making of the past regime. GEJ was so- so eager to self off PHCN to themselves in the cover of privatization because they saw it as a gold mine.
It was pretty obvious in late 2013 to those who could read between the lines that we had entered ''one chance. '
The rush to privatize such a vital and intricate service of PHCN was a stab on Nigerians.
This is why Buhari should look at this whole privatization issue. Why should they be compensated have they (discos ) spent a kobo since taking over PHCN? Not even buying the smallest of transformers.
THIS IS THE BEST TIME FOR BUHARI TO DIG INTO THE ACTUAL PERSON'S THAT BOUGHT THE VARIOUS DISCOS AND GENCOS.
In the real sense of privatization done in the interest of the masses there should be room for competition.
We are not ripe for it. Their aim is to milk and milk the common man. What is happening in EEDC is appalling - harassing the poor with military. Meanwhile the police and soldiers are owing millions in unpaid bills.

Politics / Re: Tariff Reversal: Nationwide Blackout Looms, Power Firms Warn by Uokhaboy: 12:55pm On Feb 18, 2016
Bevista:
Let's put things in perspective a bit.
---
Apart from Transmission, the FG has completely divested from Generation and Distribution of power. The private companies managing the GENCOs and DISCOs are likely not to make any long term investment in the sector if pricing of their services is going to always be politicized rather than regulated by the appropriate agency.
---
15 years ago, even with very low network penetration, we allowed GSM companies to charge Nigerians N25k for SIM cards and N50/min for calls. The companies were excited because that price compensated for their investment risk. They invested billions of dollars in infrastructure, employing thousands of Nigerians and supporting thousands of vendors. Today, SIM cards are less than N100 and calls are less than N7/min. Today, you can practically receive calls from every nook and cranny of the country.
---
My point is that the sooner we accept the initial discomfort of high price, the sooner we will get to the point of constant power and lower tariffs. If we were courageous enough to do this ten years ago, we would probably be generating over 20,000MW today with a much reduced tariff. Postpone it and you postpone progress and development. The price we are not willing to pay today will inadvertently be paid (even more) through high cost of manufacturing and running businesses due to inadequate power supply.
---
The actions of the Senate can only work when trying to force the hand of the Executive, not arm twisting private businesses. The private companies have already invested some money in paying for licenses and setting up offices. GENCOs have invested in buying or building power plants. Investments on further infrastructure will need to come from customer receipts. You don't expect them to go to their bank to borrow money for long term investment without clarity on revenue expectations.

It is wrong for you to compare electricity industry with the telecom industry.
We are enjoying the telecom industry today because of the competition. If not for glo that revolutionalised the industry.
But tell me what obtains in the electricity industry today?
Monopoly of supply and choice. ..Price per unit of electricity keep going up and will continue to go up because they (Discos ) don't have competitors.
In which normal society except ours would a sensitive and vital sector like electricity's be privatised without availability of meters.

They had only onething in mind while selling and buying PHCN .... To Milk Nigerians of their hard earned money.
How much have they invested since they bought PHCN over?... Not even a small transformer.
I do not know about supply in your area, where i am .. supply about 3-4years ago is better than what it is now.
We all know they sold PHCN amongst themselves because they saw it as Gold Mine. If they are sincere with their business aim and desire LET THEM PROVIDE NIGERIANS WITH PREPAID METERS. We then shall know how far.

Oga Robonski, you are getting me confused hear.
You said the galetin feed is in powder form to be mixed with hot water to prepare .
My confusion is in your mentioning 2mm, 3mm, 4mm and 6mm specifications of your galetin feed.
Question: Are the feeds in two forms? That is powder and pellet forms?
Please clarify....
Thanks.

@Uokhaboy,
Wao! Thank you very much for your response. Though the place is very far from Bodija where I am. [email][/email]Pls, I think you must have been patronizing the feedmill. Do you keep their receipts? Prices of some items should be there. You may even download it for us to see like Ab1x did sometimes. I am really very grateful.

I am still studying this thread and planning to get started.
A close neighbour who holds them in high esteem recommended the place.
I guess a visit to the feedmill should answer all ur questions. Try and make out time.
I personally will visit them very soon - when am done with my planning.
Cheers!.
