Cancelling d Power Sector Recovery Program is a win-win for everyone involved. The ops risks are really BAD!! If continued, Nigeria will be indebted while still paying ~$1.4B in subsidy. Paying for interest on side & subsidy on the other. It is lose -lose!
This was when the minister affirmed that the past administration (Fashola) didn't do anything regarding the Mambilla Hydropower project.
Its only God that will for you Sale!!!!
If there is regard for human life in Nigeria, all political activities should be suspended and full national focus directed at this kidnapping menace that has overtaken our society!
When I saw Ms Joke Silva at last week's AMVCA, I couldn't help admiring her strength and effervescence in the context of her husband, Olu Jacobs' illness. But I also found myself thinking about him. Here's a long read essay from that thinking.

What is the average generation in 🇳🇬 in 2026 despite adding 700MW from Zungeru?
Policy documents, strategic plans, MoUs, deal signings, & project flag-offs are only meaningful if they translate into actual product or service improvement.
@NationalGridNg
The Siemens Power Deal was supposed to deliver:
Phase I - 7,000 MW Reliable capacity by 2021
Phase II - Grid Capacity 11,000 MW by 2023
Phase III - Over 25,000 MW by 2025.
As at the signing of the deal in 2019, Nigeria's Reliable average capacity was ~ 4,000 MW.
@HabuSadeik Engineering Design, manufacturing & Services are all Engineering professions w unique expertise & exp. All categories complement each other for improved UX. Technicians r experts in implementing engineering decisions. Their feedbacks are also key to product & process improvement.
“If we did not make it so that every dollar put in at the top reaches the ground as one dollar, we're not going to succeed." - Lee Kuan Yew.
This is core to Nigeria’s success in education, healthcare, security, sport, electricity, politics, infrastructure etc.
Not being the lowest consumption of electricity is now an achievement 😌😌
Per capita Global avg - 3200kWh per annum
African avg - 650kWh per annum
Nigeria - 144kWh per annum
We are at bottom 25 globally with the likes of Haiti, Eritrea, Afghanistan…
NERC Issues Order on Reporting Regional Electricity Transmission Loss Factor
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has issued Order No. NERC/2026/026 to improve transparency and efficiency in Nigeria’s power grid through enhanced reporting of Regional Transmission Loss Factors (TLF).
Data from the Nigerian Independent System Operator (NISO) indicate that the national average TLF was 8.71% in 2024 but was reduced to 7.24% in 2025. However, this still exceeds the 7% benchmark approved by NERC in the Multi Year Tariff Order (MYTO).
The Order dated 8 April 2026 establishes a formal framework for reporting transmission losses across regions operated by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
Taking effect from 13 April 2026, the Order is backed by provisions of the Electricity Act 2023, which empower NERC to regulate, monitor, and ensure efficiency in the electricity market.
Highlights and timelines in the Order include:
NISO to install smart meters at all boundary regional interconnection points by December 2026 to accurately measure energy flows for each region of the transmission network.
NISO to measure and document all energy flow of power transformers at transmission substations.
NISO to file quarterly reports on TLF to NERC on a regional basis.
TCN to file an action plan by July 2026 on the reduction of TLF to a value within the 7% approved benchmarks in the regions.
TCN to ensure that TLF across transmission regions shall not exceed 6.5% by December 2026.
The Order is designed to strengthen accountability in transmission operations and support better grid performance through structured loss reporting.

Even in “bad” days, generation hovers around 4500MW. Presenting the move from 3900MW to 4300MW as progress is misleading. That is not growth, but partial recovery from “self-directed &self-inflicted” failure. 🤡 🤡 🤡
Nigeria’s Electricity Generation Rises To 4,300MW — Ministry of Power
The Ministry of Power has announced an improvement in Nigeria’s electricity generation, rising from 3,951 megawatts to 4,300 megawatts within a two-week period.
