Shehu Sani Blasts Fashola, Accuses Him Of Propaganda

Senator Shehu Sani has faulted Nigeria’s Minister of Power, Babatunde Fashola, over his claims on the megawatts currently generated by the country.



On his twitter handle, the senator alleged Fashola of exaggeration.

It will be recalled that Fashola recently said that the power sector has recorded successful improvement in incremental power capacity in generation, transmission and distribution.


He said: “The country power generation, which stood at 4,000 megawatts when we came on board, but today, it has been increased to 7,000 megawatts.

“In 2015, energy transmission was 5,000mw while distribution was at 3,000mw but as at today, we are distributing 5,000 mw on average with 2,000 megawatts stranded.


“We are currently adding an average of 1,000 mw of energy yearly to the national grid which implies that we have added about 3,000 mw to the generation since we came on board.’’

Shehu Sani said: “We need to appreciate the fact that there is progress made on the River Niger; Mythical,phantasmagoric & ghost River Niger bridges under the past Govts. are now replaced by real one under the present FG.

“However, on power its simply megawatts of propaganda & grid of exaggeration.”
