The man is honest and transparent not dodgy. A very good public servants different from rude public servants senator who fails to understand that he or they are public. servants.
This man is just being economical with the truth. Seun no go put person for problem oh. The man doesn't want to loose his job. This people feel that talk is cheap.
This man is sound He used the simplest terms I could understand the situation. Kudos! I pray the grid stop collapsing However, to be fair, power has improved since adelabu came But veryyyyy expensive
We have spent more than $30 billion on power jn the last 24years and still theyll say no investment has been made in the sector! Seun, ask better questions, please?
As a power Engineer, the main problem about Nigeria Power Challenge is the lack of infrastructure. Currently Nigeria generates about 4000 to 5000MW of electricity for a country of 200million plus people. That is extremely low. If we struggle to improve our Generated Power (requires alot of money for infrastructure), the transmission capacity is only about 8000MW to 8500MW, which is still low (but an improvement) to have Steady supply of electricity, there must be Total overhaul of existing infrastructures. These however will take a couple of years…it is not something that can be solved overnight. It needs a lot of resources and Commitment. For context South Africa (65 million population) generates about 40,000MW.
24 hours light to Togo, Benin and Niger republics is misleading, Seun should have also asked how many Megawatts of electricity does Nigeria sell to the three counties from what we currently generate.
If this is the man who is handling the electricity transmission problems of Nigeria, then we are in serious problems. It is a shame that Nigeria has been dealing with its tranmission problems for years. If a right candidate with the knowledge and technical skills is.engaged, this problem would disappear. Fortunately, there are many qualified Nigerians who are top experts in transmission across the world. This man does not inspire confidence at all. He appears to be so subservient, and the person who would competently deal with this problem has to be an assertive person. The person has to be driven, passionate and able able to command some respect from ministers based on his self confidence. He can not be a " yes sir " man to handle such an important agency. A part of our problems as a nation is that we don't know how to select the right persons for certain jobs. Can this man inspire confidence in donors or investors that he is up to the task?
It's a big shame that in 2024, we're still battling with power grid collapse and still don't have constant electricity. The generators we used as alternative is not even an option anymore all thanks to T-Pain's fuel price hikes
To be very honest, Nigeria has actually improved in electricity distribution What do you even need 24hrs light for when you have light for 20 to 22hrs .. that’s just 2 hrs of no electricity in a day, mind you, you’re not even active for 24hrs a day … sometimes I don’t even notice that the electricity is out cause in a matter of minutes, it’s back on They have improved and I believe they’ll fix the grid soon
I PUT IT TO YOU THAT YOU ARE AMONG THOSE WHO DRAWS US BACKWARD IN THIS COUUNTRY WITH THE TYPE OF COMMENT YOU ADD INTO THIS PROGRAM. WHAT IS BAD IN HAVING 24 HOURS POWER SUPPLY WHEN THE NEIGHBOURING COUNTRIES THAT TAPPED FROM US LIKE GHANA, TOGO, BENIN REP. ETC. ENJOY 24 HOURS FROM THEIR VARIOUS COUNTRIES. DESPITE THE FACT THAT WE STILL PAY MORE THAN NECESSARY FOR THE ELECTRICITY. THE AUTHORITY SHOULD DO THE NEEDFUL TO PUT THE SYSTEM RIGHT. THEY ALL TRAVEL ABROAD AND WITNESS THE 24 HOURS POWER SUPPLY RIGHT THERE.
Seun...does your Car gives you guarantee that it won't breakdown...the man is honest enough and respectful with his responses, let him be...grid can breakdown, what's important is that they get it restore and on time...
If you maintain your car, it would hardly give you issues, except rare cases of accident. Nigerians, stop collecting 2k data to come online and defend your slave masters. STOP IT! We are in 2024. Electricity is no rocket science.
There should be hygiene program in the government and leadership for there's too many rubbers in position s which bleeds funds from the government . That will be the only way Nigeria will get ahead ?
Please my brother kindly ask our Lagos government , when he said the there’s a street light , kindly ask him , do they put this light around AMJE houses and did they do the road, I leave in UK but I have try to do our close any time but I didn’t have any support from other people and no help from the Government but when the election comes they are ready to promise heaven and earth . I will be grateful if things can be done thanks.
They should give us light to run our business on daioly basis, Fuel is on the high side, We are not enjoying our business at all. The profit is going into buying of fuel to power our generator. We need light to run our business please.
Nigeria's Electricity power holding company is the sick Nigerian baby.Intensively cared for.Numerous options of cure but is constantly developing new diseases. What is it now?National grid have broken down!!.
These so called Nigerian politicians are so clueless. Look at the kind of person in-charge of electricity in Nigeria. That's y we are where we are according to Osinbanjo
20, 22 hours is different from 24 hours. Besides, all these bands A. B and whatever is madness. Why are they dividing and categorising the citizenry? In other words, if you don't have a certain amount of money, you don't get electricity right from the source,as it is at the moment, the source dictate what the citizens pay, not by what each individual consumes. Why not just produce and distribute electricity, and the people determine what they can conveniently consume and pay for, instead of forcing people on band's and they struggling to pay for what they did not consume.
I have never seen PHCN upgrade transformers. In fact ,the community contributes money to repair or replace and no refund, more bills paid. These government officials are jokers. A bunch of selfish comedians. I rest my case.
@21:30 Mr Director, sir, as far as the ordinary Nigerians are concerned, NEPA, PHCN, GenCos, TCN and DisCos are all one and the same! It is not our fault that your FG decided to split them up and award the electricity generation, transmission and dustribution contracts to your incompetent friends. Instead of investing more on electricity, which is paramount for economic take-off, the FG decided on such frivolous projects like Lagos-Calabar coastal road that we do not need FOR NOW! Year in, year out, it's all stories! stories!! stories!!! Gosh!!!!
Your ignorance is on full display here. We don't need Lagos/Calabar coastal hwy right is the same kind of mediocre and lack of foresightness is what got our nation to this Predicament. We watched and did nothing while our population continue to explode for the 40 yrs and meanwhile our infrastructures like power sectors continue to decline and can not cope with the demands . But u are hear talking rhetorics about Tinubu's planned coastal hwy
@@okeoja4447, Even though I emphasised the phrase: "FOR NOW", you still slurred over it to demonstrate your poor literal or maybe inferential comprehension.

@@motamusicagencye.u.artiste3781 PROFESSOR OF LETTERS. You have again wrote a whole essay making no sense at all. Who says Govt is all about solving one problems at a time?

NIGERIA NIGERIA NIGERIA..WHEN WILL WE GET IT RIGHT..BASIC POWER SUPPLY IS AN ISSUE..DOES IT REALLY MEAN WE HAVE NO SHAME? IMAGINE IF TINUBU CAN JUST SAY YOU KNOW WHAT? LET ME GIVE THESE PEOPLE LIGHT EVEN IF THATS THE ONLY THING HE ACHIEVED HE WILL BE REMEMBERED AS THE BEST PRESIDENT EVER..BUT WHEN HE IS HARDLY IN THE COUNTRY I GUESS THATS HOW HE BUILT LAGOS LOL
Would you be happy if someone use this same language about you? You don’t have to condemn a man to make your point known! Pls always engage in healthy conversations
Another square peg in a round hole. This man speaks with the vagueness of an illiterate mallam. Sir, sir, sir every other word is proof, no technical intelligence. A dumb country that refuses to invest in power transmission has to now sell power to other dumb countries that refuses to invest in their own power generation whereas Nigerians are burning dirty fuel to noisy generators. Africa is a sad story because of corruption and kicking the can down the road. What a sad country 😢!
No wonder Nigeria is mess up with power. Person wan read Islamic religion language na orna carry go put for power sector. Yeye country. Very very incompetent people. It is well with Nigeria.
This man seems ill prepared to talk about the problem. He keeps rigmaroling around the questions. It’s almost as if he doesn’t have much knowledge about the industry he is in or the organization he heads.🤬
May you live long Seun my guy.
Even the man is shocked, five times this year? 😂😂😂 mumu people
Your guest is really wonderful at least shows some sincerity
Wow this man came prepared sir, please Uncle Seun sir, pls don't give this man HBP oooo, he his a good man and we need such people in power sir. lol
Seun,sir,yes sir.
The man is honest and transparent not dodgy. A very good public servants different from rude public servants senator who fails to understand that he or they are public. servants.
Good job 👍
It's best to privatise the power sector. It will be of help to our economy development.
These politicians aren't ready at all for Nigeria turn around
This TCN guy is well spoken and his job very well 👍🏿
This man is just being economical with the truth. Seun no go put person for problem oh. The man doesn't want to loose his job. This people feel that talk is cheap.
People like this is the problem of our power sector.
How can such be in position ?
He doesn't even know the number of times that the whole shit went off
This man is sound
He used the simplest terms
I could understand the situation.
Kudos!
I pray the grid stop collapsing
However, to be fair, power has improved since adelabu came
But veryyyyy expensive
We have spent more than $30 billion on power jn the last 24years and still theyll say no investment has been made in the sector! Seun, ask better questions, please?
Okay sir
Nigeria is a gunner 😅nothing is working is this country
We get light oo
Seun keep the good work going

Truth be said, Northerner are the one enjoying light in Nigeria 🇳🇬
Hmmm
24 hours light to Togo, Benin and Niger republics is misleading, Seun should have also asked how many Megawatts of electricity does Nigeria sell to the three counties from what we currently generate.
So cheap question always romancing pple power avoiding major question he suppose to ask him
Seun and this man stop confusing us o, 5 thousand what? Is it 5 thousand naira or 5 thousand bags of rice. Thank goodness Seun finally said Megawatt 😅
When you have incompetent people handling very important departments, this is the result we get in return. Useless set of people.
DO NOT SCRAP THE EFCC BEEFORE PRODUCING A VIABLE & BETTER REPLACEMENT!!!
Mr honorabe man, are you telling the general that Nigeria as a Nation cannot produce enough electricity for the teeming population?
All is promise promise. Promise.

Efcc should be scrapped
How did South Africa, kenya and Ghana do it? How many years did they need to do that?
Leave Dem with their lies , always romancing their shitty greed in. Public
This man is just a palliative politician being put in a technical position. Terribly unfortunate
Why he keeps calling him SIR😂
Only 6 MW and grid is failing! At 100MW, Nigeria will catch fire!
It's a big shame that in 2024, we're still battling with power grid collapse and still don't have constant electricity. The generators we used as alternative is not even an option anymore all thanks to T-Pain's fuel price hikes

Why is there an 8k megawatts used power? What can be done to improve the absorption capacity of these DISCOs?

Which part in Nigeria is getting 24 hours electricity power supply?
I never see ooh
Excuses excuses 😢
which transfomer who na dey change baba calm down.
The interview with the TCN man is such a sad and uninspiring one. The man should not be holding a public office of such importance.
Would you be happy if someone use this same language about you? You don’t have to condemn a man to make your point known! Pls always engage in healthy conversations
We see you who is fit to hold public office. Shior!
The 2 guys defending this abysmal interview with this TCN, it's either he's their uncle or they too are the problem of this country.
Seun,some of your guests are so annoying mabasi...This man may not have light where he lives.
You are here justifying the number of power grid collapse by comparing with previous years. What a country.
We have been hearing this from them. Just lairs every where

Unfortunately Nigeria is also affecting Seun
Your style of conducting interviews and choice of questions are so backward!
How? So that we know on what context.
What's with the "sir"? Is your studio guest trying to display some out-of-the-world humility neh? Laughable!!
Habit?
This man is talking trash
How come he cannot answer a simple question? When was the last major investment, and perhaps, how much was invested in the last 12 to 18 months?
