Over 2,000 Megawatts (MW) of the 7,000MW of electricity generated in the country are unable to be distributed due to weak transmission, Minister of Power, Works and Housing Babatunde Fashola said yesterday.



He said it was important to devise means of taking the unutilised 2,000MW to Nigerians, who needed power, noting that “we cannot afford to keep power; that is not good for business, especially those who invested in it.

“One of the steps we are taking with the Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPH) is to try and complete some of the distribution projects under the Nigerian National Integrated Power Project (NIPP) projects,” Fashola said.
