“We generate more than we consume presently. Aren’t we responsible for providing Power to our neighbors?”
“My friend works in Odukpani Power Plant in CRS,he says d Disco can only buy power frm 1 Turbine n d ve 4 of such Turbines. That is why d FG still pays GENCOs 4 lost energy.”

“Bubarists are celebrating this news. Let me burst your bubbles. Only Obasanjo spent 8 years in power in the period under review. Buhari has so far spent 7+ years in power. So he cannot glory for producing more than GEJ and Yar’Adua who spent far less time as presidents.”

“I think you have production & consumption muddled up. PRODUCTION is measured in W, Consumption is in Wh.”
“What you are showing us is the GROWING consumption of power by Nigerians who are adding ACs, heaters and so on to the grid. Show us Production – power station by station.”
