WHY THE PUBLIC POWER (NEPA OR PHCN) CANNOT WORK IN NIGERIA

Many might see me as a prophet of doom, but I used the past to judge the present and to predict the future. During OBJ administrations, many companies had a contract to generate, transmit and distribute power in Nigeria, many of them were companies that existed on papers, no physical offices or sites to build the power plant; what did we get? Your answer is as good as mine. From investigations many high profile politicians are shareholder in many generator selling companies like Marapco, Jabile and so on. This simply implies that their companies must always be in business. The last administration left 5000MW for the entire country… can this power the homes and businesses of over 160million Nigerian? Your answer is as good as mine. We need at least a minimum of 50,000MW of power to have about 12 hours of power supply. Can this administration do it in the next 4 years? Your answer is as good as mine. Nigeria is the highest consumer of electricity in the world; do you think the importers and the manufacturers of these generators will want to go out of business very soon? Your answer is as good as mine. Many of these generators are fakes with aluminum coils. I bought a generator in November 2011, and was pumping water with it in March, 2012, the coil burnt up and I had to recoil to be able to use it and since then it cannot function well. I bought another one for my church in less than one year, the generator packed up. I know that many people had had similar experiences.

The only way out.

There is no need stating the problem without providing the solution. The solution is simple if you can begin to use the natural resources given to us by God to generate FREE electricity. The sun is given to us to provide light which we can convert to electricity. Germany is doing that right now since 2013 generating up to 35.5GW of electricity from solar power system. You can build your own solar panels at home at the cost of about 25 to 30% off the market price to power your homes and business. The way out
