You should have told us their locations. I see two igbotic names Sha. We need to decentralize everything. The national grid should be balkanized

Very good development. Now the real competition has started. I hope this will improve electricity supply

Expecting mire

Ok, will this help in reducing price or will dey b singing dollar don increase also

They should pump money into it

That's beautiful one, healthy competition is the way forward.

Okay.
The most important thing is, WHAT MEGAWATTS OF ELECTRICITY IS NIGERIA GENERATING AND DISTRIBUTING AT THE MOMENT AND IN YEARS?

Nigeria is such a shameless, USELESS and empty country filled with the most evil, senseless, corrupt and old fool leaders.

South Africa here is producing almost 250,000 megawatts of electricity, while Nigeria claiming giant of Africa can't even produce up 30,000.
THAT MEANS SOUTH AFRICA IS PRODUCING ALMOST X10, IMAGINE!

HOW CAN A COUNTRY SURVIVE AND PROGRESS WITH ELECTRICITY IN THIS MODERN AGE?
YET, NIGERIA STILL REMAINS 6TH LARGEST PRODUCER OF CRUDE OIL IN THE WORLD.

WHAT A SHAME!

They should come with 40billion investment minimum
Not just collecting licenses like refineries 32 only 1 built

They will now be looking for rich man to sell licenses too Nigerians and greed

OK

Competition now will automatically lead to tariffs and price reduction. Good development for Nigerians!!!!

They targeting atiki's businesses

Okay

Maybe to cover unserved areas.

Nigeria seems to be the only country that does not have constant electricity

What exactly do you want from this istration?

I hope they're coming with dere own money to start something remarkable the way MTN and other Network came in den to kick out NITEL...

Youths see employment opportunities ooooo

Where is the power they are distributing? Instead of focusing on generating more electricity they're repeating what they have been doing for ages without results.

Remind me what Einstein calls someone who does one thing the same way over and over and expect different results again?

These fools refuse to decentralised national grid, what's the essence of this nonsense... Afganistan has %97 of access to electricity, yet some fools will still this nonsense Spittts

Now Ariaria is getting an independent power distribution and OttI constructing roads around the market environs

A historic achievement for Aba

Majority of them are in one state,make no sense
