The Senior Special Assistant to President
Goodluck Jonathan, Doyin Okupe has assured again that the era of shortage in
power supply in most part of the nation will come to an end before the end of
the year. This is coming on the heels of recent reports that Power Generation has
dropped to 2,628.6 Megawatts.
Addressing a news conference in Abuja, Okupe
explained further that on the issue of achieving uninterrupted power supply in
Nigeria, the president is not resting on his oars to see that it becomes a
reality, but expressed disappointment that the highly transparent and
professional manner in which President Jonathan handled the privatization of
the power sector is lost on the public in spite of the commendations of the
global business community especially international investors.
He said the new owners of the divested assets
of Power Holding Company of Nigeria will utilize the presently installed
capacities more efficiently and add more power to the 5,000 megawatts already
being generated by the country.
