Vandalism of some power plants and the slow pace of contract execution by some of the contractors handling some of the projects are currently affecting the Federal Government’s desire to add 4,000MW to the national grid soon.
This was revealed during the 29th meeting of the Board of Niger Delta Power Holding Company of Nigeria, operators of National Integrated Power Plants, presided over by Vice President Namadi Sambo at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Friday.
A statement made available at the end of the meeting quoted members of the board as expressing apprehension over the spate of vandalism in parts of the country, especially the recent one at Afam in Delta State, where gas facilities were vandalised.
The incident, they observed, had affected power output in the country.
