It is no longer news that the power supply situation across the country has dropped significantly in recent times.
This has given birth to many complaints from commercial and individual consumers, who said that the situation had put more pressure on their electricity budgets.
Many of them believe that there is something that the new power distribution and generation investors are not getting right.
Although they cannot identify what could be amiss, but they think that if the new investors knew what to do, power supply shouldn’t have dropped from what it was but improve.
Several reasons have been adduced to the falling condition of supply such as insufficient gas for generation and obsolete transmission lines among others.
But no excuse appears to be satisfactory for customers who still have to pay their bills in spite of lack of power supply.
At a recent parley with the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission in Abuja, the power investors said that they also have their own cross to carry.
They stated that the challenges they had encountered since taking over the generation and distribution of electricity were enormous.
Power Talkback decided to present comments made by some of the management teams of investors in this column being the platform where consumers converge to see electricity issue as it concerns them, thus making informed decisions.
They attempted to speak on issues that have been in the front burner for some weeks.
