Former Minister of Power, Prof. Barth Nnaji was the first to bow out of the power sector reform process in August for conflict of interest in the privatisation exercise of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
Since then, there have been major changes and drastic actions taken by the government in the power reform including the minor cabinet reshuffle on October 31, when the Minister of State for Power, Dairus Dickson Ishaku who held forte in the Power Ministry pending the appointment of a substantive minister was moved to the Ministry of Niger Delta and replaced with Hajia Zainab Kuchi who was the Minister of State for Niger Delta.
The two ministers who swapped positions were still trying to get familiar with their new assignments when again last Tuesday, President Goodluck Jonathan relieved the Director-General of the Bureau for Public Enterprises (BPE), Ms. Bolanle Onagoruwa of her position.
