Without constant electricity no development. The only reason there’s unbridled unemployment in Nigeria is lack of electricity. If electricity was stable, people could care less if petroleum subsidy is removed 100%. With stable electricity there’ll be tranquility in the land, less noise pollution and kids would put their imagination to work, and artisans will be busy in their trades. Crime rates will crash and food storage will increase thereby reducing waste in the value chain. Inflation will decrease. Electricity is life.
Spot on
I concur. Nigeria have to produce at least 100 000mw to ensure a stable economy
Thank you
President Tinubu’s media team should create series of 3 minute videos that will explain his policies and reforms from fuel subsidy, uniting multiple forex into one, university students loan, energy reforms, etc. A lot of Nigerian do
Even if Tinubu accomplished everything he wishes to accomplish many Nigerians are still never going to buy into the administration not because of anything rather their Ethnocentrist psychosis mindset
Is it ethnocentrism that is causing Nigerians in the Western and Northern states who voted President Agbado to now take to the streets crying for bread, rice and basic food items?
No it his ill-timed and senseless twin policies that have sent an economy already weak into a downward spiral. The man is uniquely unfit to be a leader of any kind. His antecedents are full of corruption including certificate forging, drug running, over inflated projects like the Enron badge which saw Lagos pay for the most expensive power badge in the world, only for Enron executives to admit paying huge bribes back to Nigerian authorities (Tinubu), his well documented attempt to force out Strive Masiyiwa from Econet, leading the company into a decade of abyss and killing competition in the telecoms sector, his privatization of Lagos State assets and sharing to his cronies, Alpha Beta, Lekki tollgate which his son collects tolls on...the list is endless. Sorry it is not Ethnocentrism but corruption and incompetency on steroids.
Hey! let the states that can generate power supply, transmit power and distribute power to their people.
collection and management handled by their people for complete transparency,
Accountibility & regularity handled by their people.
This national grid policy isn't working.
Corruption and no accountability for sabotage is rampant. Easy solution no power in your state hold your state government accountable.
You would think that with the 3 sets of legislation passed by Buhari (1) and Tinubu (2), enabling states to generate and transmit, states would be falling over themselves to find investors. But the states are just looking. I think it's only Edo, Lagos and Oyo that have done something so far.
The only solution this man has is how to make citizens pay through their nose. And how much himself will get against the system.
Mr Minister sir,
Am very proud of your comprehensive problems and solutions analytical skills.
You are good and worthy ambassador of our noble profession. 👍👍
God bless you sir.
President Tinubu, must put nepotism aside and find somebody who can assure Nigerians of electricity.
The ministry of power is overwhelming to Mr. Adelabu, with him Nigeria will ever remain in darkness as long as Mr. Tinubu is in power.
Nope, I think he was honest with the problems and what will be the solution if we are being honest, He put it to us as Nigerians, if we really want ELECTRICITY to power manufacturing and produce cheaper products and food for us all or we as NIGERIANS, we want to keep acting CHEAP and continue receiving subsidy from the Government.
Not That government should immediately remove all (unless necessary) subsidy but slowing in percentage remove it from us and then the already invested Infrastructure made by the Government can run independently and be self-sufficient they can keep buying gas and continuing maintaining already available infrastructure.
Then Government can then focus on investing in new Infrastructure to expand on an already consistence and efficient available infrastructure.
(just a thought)
Tty to listen to the minister 1st
@@kunleogundele5067.. Na listening we go chop?
Can u make a suggestion or recommendations to the President?
Thank you sir, you have heat the points.
We have a lot of Sunshine and Wind in Nigeria, we should also focus on generating Power through alternative sources like Solar energy and massive wind farms in all states of the Nation. It is a massive opportunity for state governments to explore.
As long as looting is stopped. There will be power.
Nigeria supplied power to our neighbouring countries who running efficiently why not
Nigeria?
That is how you will know this man don't know what he is saying, and playing to the gallery.
How much are the citizens in those countries paying for kWh. As long as Nigerians insist on electricity subsidy, there will be no electricity . Our governments are not paying the subsidy to these energy companies. Electricity companies will not invest because they know that the subsidy payment will not come from government. Therefore, it is a vicious cycle. Why will gas companies supply gas to our plants if payment is not guaranteed.
Yes he can, the same way he increased the cost of living.Big man, big character. Without him,Nigeria is lost.
A functioning power grid will cost over 100 billion dollars for a country the size of Nigeria. That requires FDI and private sector involvement. It cannot be subsidized by government as no private sector investor views that as sustainable and reliable.
With constant power supply, almost all the problems in Nigeria will be eliminated because affects all sectors starting from business to security. If President BAT can do this he will be the Best President ever.💪
This guy has no solution to electricity power problems. He is busy talking on what he doesn’t understand. Tinubu: please review the position of so call minister of power.
Please what is your own solution to the problem since you knew better?
Let the power sector operate commercially
Even in the United state
The electricity tariff is different from state to state
Any political leader who says he wants to fix the electricity problem in Nigerian without considering unbundling the "National Grid", is not serious; he is only just dilly-dallying. Period.
But he just unbundled it 100%
@@user-fp5hq5kj2b, we have one "National Grid" comprising obsolete lines (by TCN) running across the length and breadth of the country. How can they transmit power, for example, from Benin to Kano and expect optimal power supply? How?
SO THE LAST TIME TINUBU DID OR SAID ANYTHING ABOUT PRIORITIZING POWER WAS DURING HIS SPEECH? WHAT ACTION AFTER THAT HAS PRIORITIZED POWER? LO IRO! OTI LO!!! NAIJA DON GO!😂
Lol.. glad some can see thru the bs
New name, new face, same excuse. Talk talk talk, still no power. If these people can provide power as long as they talk, we would pass America, Haba!
Africans need to develop more investments in more SOLAR Energy. They have the abundance in sunshine and the weather. The governments should must invest and promote this for homes in Africa. Education and development is key. We all need to look after mother Earth and our environment. CLIMATE CHANGE IS A PROBLEM and mother NATURE IS SO POWERFUL. WE CAN BE KINDER TO MOTHER EARTH
Up Nepa
This minister of power has no SOLUTIONS for constant power supply in Nigeria... he's good in talking 😅
Considering that power generation, transmission and distribution is virtually a national security issue, the question is should its management be left in the hands of profit motivated organizations? Seems like the subsidy pays for the profits of these organizations. Why not do away with the middle men and keep the profits in house with federal and state governments doing the generation and transmission while the local governments take charge of distribution. Do we even know who benefits from the subsidies because businesses definitely should be paying for what they use for their profit generating activities. Too many hands in the pot, they say destroys the flavor of the soup. Seems like unity is a misplaced and misused word in Nigeria. While there is need to decentralize many aspects of our national life like governing, policing etc, there is need for unity of purpose in other areas like the power sector.
How has govt fared for 64yrs and you stupidly want to go back to give govt monopoly.
Nitel
Airways
Trains
Ports
Security
Roads
Health
Education
Which one had govt run well?
As stupid as it may sound, there are some things left in the hands of a governing authority, unless humans want to return to the stone age. I am a Nigerian, I have had the privilege of working in some government departments that actually functioned. If ideas are not being sabotaged by those who want to work a little and profit more, then government will thrive especially in areas like power generation. The keywords are "Unity of Purpose."
@@adewaleas There are ways to apply "unity of purpose" in a cosmopolitan and multicultural society like nigeria. For example, the army and currency should be in Fed. control. Electricity n Policing should be totally decentralized but regulated by the Fed. govt.... Federal Govt Regulation will ensure unity of purpose in a cosmopolitan society so as not to infringe in the culture of all involved.
A great interview! We hope to see more of our ministers and law makers held to accountability by the media. Please, keep fighting and represent the needs of our suffering people. if we have all three resources as stated, then the problem is corruption!!!
A bad worker blame his tools
Nightmare, uncertainty and fear of future frustration when they light comes just because it indicates the line might be cut comes to mind. Estimate bill wickedness
There are TOO MANY DISCOS distributing less than 4,000mw of electricity. Nigeria is the only country in the world that does it.
EDUCATION, EDUCATION, EDUCATION!
healthcare and housing too
Actually both are a by-product of education. That is what nigerians fail to understand...😅
Mr Adebayo you have said it all. The problem of Nigeria is not the President but private sector's
This man has no business in the power ministry.
HOW MANY CENTURIES will we continue to PREACH about THIS.. Action 🎬 now..!! Do it now !! Let it work now !! 🇳🇬 Nigerians are tired of rhetoric s. !!
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 Nigeria
EACH STATE CAN HAVE THEIR SUFFICIENT POWER SUPPLY. THE MONEY IS THERE. TELL OUR GOVERNORS TO BE HONEST WITH US. THE IDEA OF BUILDING ROADS ALONE FOR 8 YEARS SHOULD STOP.
A lot of you guys are duller, he said everything clearly, just because is not promising or say what you guys want to hear you think is not capable
Old NEPA system. 😂 Come to NYC you won't see any electricity poles or spider webs electrical wires. Everything is underground safe and efficient 24 hours power supply. 🎉 So easy, let us move forward, I can help you. ❤
Aren’t Nigeria leaders ashamed of themselves that they travel outside Nigeria and they enjoy quiet life with electricity and they come home and be Buga-in with Mekano generator? No sane investors will leave where there’s light to come to darkness unless a Nigerian leader wants to use him to launder funds abroad. With stable electricity, investors will be begging Nigeria to come because of our young population and their skills. Our leaders dey play games.
SO WHERE DID FASHOLA STOPPED FOR 8 YEARS ?
God bless our president for strengthening his strengthening on every development ( proud of you sir )
Fool
It's just another way of embezzling money
Ode 😂😂 pls go back to school
What are you proud of🙄 high cost of living, black market fuel no electricity...so what the heck you proud of😮
Good point, states should take responsibility to monitor and regulate transmission and distribution for Nigerians within their domain. Also, as a nation we must have our own customised addressing system to map every legitimate/legally owned and registered property unit/cell for efficient service delivery. (Like a postcode) Every state must ensure to adopt this format and regulate it.
The state governments must ensure the right structures and policies are in place for power distribution and transmission. This is necessary so they (state gov) and distributors can easily track and monitor power resources. Engage technology and skill of data experts to help in this regard.
State governments must prosecute n discourage people from building indiscriminately and making shanties.
Engage urban n regional planners for future city and district developments to ensure well organised distribution lines are in place that can last for many centuries. This will save cost and help maintenance now and in the future.
Our haphazard approach to issues as a people will not help take us far. Our level of organisation, detail, law and order has to be upgraded as a people.
God bless Nigeria 🇳🇬
He's just understudying the problem.😀
Bring a technical man who knows the job, remove all the known stumbling block in the form of policy.
When the government has no accountability nor discipline but unjustly killing punishing their citizens for exercising their freedom. From independence to date ALL the leaders from federal to local should be brought to justice. They have all failed, the same mess from one to another.
This is just grammar consumers don't need. Please go and solves these problems and give us adequate and regular power
Now u know those plants need gas supplies whats ur immediate action to solve it ?
The Nigerian way of solving a problem is to use a non conspicuous problem today (which has the potential to grow into a bigger problem tomorrow) to overshadow the current problem.
I am against this whole concept of relying solely on a national grid which requires excess logistics-ing and unnecessary travel for the product to feed the whole nation. It is based on this extra logistic-sing that problems abound...people destroying infrastructure and etc because they haven't been allowed to make money.
Nigeria needs to solve its power problems regionally first. The East , Middle belt, the West and the North need to get their shit together individually to solve the power problem...and then whatever region has resolved its power problem, they can sell to other regions or have economic co-operations with other regions...It will foster respect.
Let the areas that have these resources concentrate on their core resources and drive regional economic cooperation and foreign investments at the regional level (not nationally) and then excess capacity should be sold nationally to give the regions money to develop themselves.
East: gas/wind/rivers/solar/coal (East)
Middle belt: dams, solar/ wind / rivers
North: solar/Wind and
West: Water/solar/ocean
Let the regions decide their priority list and what areas of life will start out with 247 power and scale according to regional plans.
(1) Manufacturing companies (in economic areas/clusters)
(2) Private Businesses(in business zones)
(3) Markets
(4) Govt institutions,
(5) Schools)
(6) Residential (Urban higher priority) and Rural (rural lower priority)
Till their entire states and region is covered...then they can sell excess capacity.
Not this patch patch National plan rubbish we currently have. Let states/regions invest as blocs in power and the more power and stability that is created, the national grid can then be redirected, and/or sold as an export.
The past ministers are just as bad, all talk no action
Pure bull
Mandate all discos to meter all house hold!!! No more post paid or estimated bills
Subsidy should be to the the pple not to the generation n distribution companies
N to the state!!!! What are they doing about the new electricity act which gives the state the power of generating n distributing electricity within it state????
Power Minister Adebayo Adelabu spent nearly an hour explaining to his audience that shadow-chasing Nigeria's fleeting power supply continues. Interesting analysis nonetheless.
Every African country is calling Nigeria’s generator country
I don't agree with the honourable minister that funding is the problem. The problem is not funding but corruption and lack of accountability. Over 30 dilapidated power plants across the country are poorly maintained not because of funds but corruption and unaccountability. Billions of Naira are frittered away year on year without accountability. Any attempt to continuously increase tariff will not go down well with the suffering masses. The poor has to breathe. The money collected by government from the consumers does not get to the Treasury and unaccounted for. Nobody is standing on the way of PHCN workers from collecting money from consumers. Infact consumers complain of PHCN officials giving them bills for power they did not consume. The honorable minister should get in touch with Prof Nnaji on how to go about power supply in Nigeria and the recent success story of Prof Nnaji in Abia. Government should hands off power supply. I also don't agree with the honourable Minister that technical know how is not an issue. Hand over the Nigerian power sector today to indians or Chinese engineers to run our power sector and it will bounce back in less than two years. Power supply is not rhetorics but technical and leadership issue
Please give us working gas plants within that 18 to 24 months. That will be incredible. We have been waiting for decades. We’re tied of talks. He’s the one in charge now .
This minister isn't the right person for the job. This political appointment won't work.
Like all problems in Nigeria, it is the Country Structure that is the Problem. Nigeria has over 230 milion population and all subsequent governments has always treated Nigeria as a unitary system . Here in the USA , most Counties has they own power Companies, Yes, I said companies that supply these counties power. Most States and Counties in the USA has their own Police and fire department , sanitation department just to mention but a few serviices. Nigeria should allow the States and counties the Power to raise and collect taxes for revenue and also maitain and regulate its own power Surply. Surpose Nigerai does not have Crude Oil how will Nigeria Survive.
Our Cars are imported from oversees and working here excellent my Why not the Power
Lack of instrumentation and control engineers to properly troubleshoot processes after equipment failure.. Our schools are rubbish
Availability of parts after devices failure must be looked into. Government can raise spare parts companies
Sell the power sector to private companies and take your hands off .
I weak o.
When you keep allowing the naira to fall, how will consumers be able to pay?. Now if you want to charge full commercial rate, every household may be required to pay 50k. How will people be able to pay????
Stable electricity has never been around since independence
Look at these two people. One is like bonga fish, the other one is filled up with loot..., looted corrupt money.
LET HIME ASK ABIA GOVERNOR THIS STATE HIS ELECTRICITY 24 HOURS 7 DAYS A WEEK NO STOP NIGERIA IS BLESS WITH, CRUDE OIL AND GAS, IRON ORE, LIMO STONE, RUBBUR PALM TREE OIL SAMPLE WE NEED GOD BLESS NIGERIA AMEN OO
Iro labi..... All na lie
Oga minister ,what magic 5000megawatt want to perform to 220m people,the problem with light is high demand to lower supply.
You are correct. Producing 5 000mw will never solve Nigerias problems. South Africa which has a quarter of the population of Nigeria produce 60 000mw and that is not enough
THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONLY THINGS,WE SHOULD HAVE GET FROM HIME ELECTRICITY IS OUR GREATER PROBLEM, LEAVE THE REST ON US TO SURVIVE OURSELVES GOD BLESS NIGERIA YOUTH AMEN OO
Thank you very much for your good job information Sir my Minister of Power development life of Federal Republic of Nigeria 🇳🇬 Sir and Well done Job Sir and God bless you all Sir 🙏💚🤍💚 And Long life with a good Happiness life for Mr president of Federal Republic of Nigeria 🇳🇬 Sir BOLA AHMED TINUBU 🇳🇬🙏 and God bless us all Amen 🙏💚🤍💚🙏 and God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria 🇳🇬 Amen 🙏💚🤍💚
Here comes power minister that his own office alongside other Federal Government agencies owing AEDC of electricity bills for years. Government borrowed money £16 billion yet minister is saying that Liquidity/Funding is one of the major problem.
In summary, there’s no hope to solve power problem according to the minister
@Josephedokwe6177: have you noticed you did not get any likes for your "honest to god" comment that "there's no hope...?" LOL 😆🤣😆!
PENKELEMESI ....PECULIAR MESS
All I hear is excuses. Tell us what you are doing to solve the problem.
Na today this promise start ? Buhari was there 8 years, was that time not enough to stabilize power sector?
Politicians! You know the impacts of not having power, yet you wish to impoverish and pauperise people taking away the subsidy. Do we even get what we pay for in Nigeria, whether subsidised or otherwise?
Imagine saying the problem of power sector is not technical but structural. Two words that can be used interchangeably.
Clueless!!!
In a serious climate where government is answerable to the people? Why is the situation diiffer in Nigeria? Who is a Nigerian? Who owns Nigeria? Are we honest to ourselves? Pls God,can you dismantle the origin of failures from our national geographical spreads? Absolute wickedness everywhere? There must be absolutely transparency in the government willingness to challenge and transform the power sectors? Now, the commercial operator's ? Where are the meters???? We need a draconian law in place to make sure every household in the country is provided with meters and electricity billing is acceptable and accurate? Despite tossing up and down by Nepa officials, no meters are available for potential customers?.
There is line tunubu is not caming enithing power💡 for contry nigéria....
This man is sounding like a critic and not a minister. He is full of excuses. He is part of government and talking like an outsider.
He was neither proffering solutions nor offering tangible progress.
You want someone with previous executive experience like an ex governor to take charge, because they would achieve their objective with minimal excuses
At the end of this whole time wasting, we continue in our darkness.
All of u turn Nigeria up side down
Just sharing money everyday
Minister that don't even know what to do to make a different in the country
Giving us lecture like we don't know what power is, the existing problems and how important it is to the development of any, especially growing, economy. Licking mouth up and down, giving excuses, as if some other developing countries who now have stable electricity didn't have some of these issues and resolve them... Unna too talk jare, since 1960, pippo don tire abeg... Just DO/IMPLEMENT ffs!! 😠
The roughs and the thieves are laughing at you. They are enjoying you demonstrating.
This man came talk for an hour about one problem and that problem. I beg shift. The power sector is worse under you, Nigeria has never had it so bad in recent years. Under the scorching heat and electricity no dey either, economy hard and no respite for the citizens. Generators are breaking down. Subsidize gas supply in the short term and work long term on how you go about deregulation. This man is overwhelmed and should be sacked.
Same script different cast!
😢😢😢😢😢😢useless president
4:55 he claims power sector is not an engineering problem.
People like this are the reason naija seems to remain in an endless cycle of backwardness.
Even the average layman knows that the electricity problem is multifacted which certainly includes engineering problems as well as others.
Clearly lacking an understanding of the problem and his job. His job is to solve the problme not to give excuses, false allusions or empty promises.
If Tinubu don't remove this man before it is too late, the consequences will be beyond reason.
Do we want to remain in bondage under fuel subsidy or suffer hardship while slowly working our ways back to freedom? Each of the choices have consequences, but I prefer to suffer pain today for a better tomorrow
What of you die of hardship of today without seeing that better tomorrow you are enduring? My friend be reasonable
People are dying and the elite are still getting richer...what are you on about 🙄
The guy has no answers, bullshit
You people are just making me laugh 😂not ashamed of believing that anything gonna wake up to Nigeria again that's malaria dream. Look for your doctor in abroad. 😂
Hear an ignorant political appointee speaking. He doesn’t know anything about power. A lay man as minister. Sorry minister, sorry power session.
This man is doing analysis without solution. He is unfit for the ministry. He needs to be replaced.
🫶🫶🫶👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻❤
This man is speaking too much grammar. first you did not ask his background hence he is not an Engineer.? Second what are other countries doing that we are not doing? Peter Obi went to Morocco and Egypt to study what they are doing that is working where has he been?
Excuses, excuses, excuses...Talk is "cheap"! Don't listen to him , he's one of the problem that is keeping Nigerians in Darkness!!!
