…Improved power boosting businesses in Kaduna
Kano is one of the states in the federation that is groaning under epileptic power supply . According to statistics made available by manufacturers, the Ministry of Power was supposed to supply Kano zone that comprises Katsina, Jigawa , Kano and Niger Republic with 8 percent of the total power generation based on distribution formula, but what was being handed to the zone was just 3 percent.

Nigerians have been asked to support the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC, in its efforts to improve the power sector.

INVESTORS who missed out on the telecoms licence regime in Nigeria now have another golden opportunity to invest in the next big sector on the African continent – the Nigerian Power Sector – with huge returns to make from generating electricity to a population in excess of 160 million people!

The joint effort of the three tiers of government to increase power generation, transmission and distribution capacities on a significant scale through the National Integrated Power Projects (NIPP) enters its final lapse as the government offers the 10 power generating plants built by the Niger Delta Power Holding Company Limited (NDPHC) for sale to investors.
