Power generation drops to 2 000MW

Abuja - The Federal Government has said the country is currently generating about 2 000 megawatts of electricity, down from over 4 000MW recorded early last month, Punch reports.
The government blamed the disparity in the generation potential and actual output on the activities of gas pipelines vandals. The Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Power, Dr. Godknows Igali, said the poor electricity supply was causing anger among consumers who were paying for what they hardly consumed. Igali spoke at a training session on meter installation and maintenance organised by the National Power Training Institute of Nigeria for trainees under the National Power Sector Apprenticeship Scheme in Abuja on Tuesday.
