The Nigerian Society of Engineers announced a decline in the general infrastructure in Nigeria. During an event organised by NSE, former President Olusegun Obasanjo said Nigerians are still expecting the desired change promised by the Federal Government in the power sector.
He said Nigerians were in the best position to assess the power situation, not the figure being released by the government officials.
He challenged the Managing Director of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company, Mr. James Olotu, an award recipient on the occasion, to ensure that Nigerians enjoyed value for their money.
Obasanjo, before presenting the award to Olotu, asked him if all the power plants had been completed and the NDPHC boss responded, saying they were over 90 per cent completed.
Obasanjo said, “Let’s hope that the 100 per cent of the (NIPP projects) will be completed and all of them will be feeding power into our homes. Maybe we will see the change.”
