As investors take over in Oct
By ADEWALE SANYAOLU
Hope of reliable power supply to Nigerians may be realised before year end as the Presidency through the Bureau of Public Enterprise (BPE) has assured that additional 6,000 mega watts would soon be added to the national grid to complement the 4500 megawatts currently been distributed.
The assurance was given by the Director General of BPE, Mr. Benjamin Dikki, just as he hinted that new investors in the power sector will be taking over the facilities in October this year, after payment of 75 per cent outstanding bid price.
Dikki argued that power supply in the country will improve when the private investors eventually take over; adding that the introduction of sound maintenance culture would ensure that the current installed capacity of 6000 megawatts is exploited and put on the national grid.
