Peter Obi Unveils Strategy to End Nigeria’s Power Crisis

Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has outlined how he would address Nigeria’s persistent electricity problems if elected president.
Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, said solving the country’s power crisis is not “rocket science,” but a matter of adopting proven models from other developing nations.
He made the remarks on Sunday while responding to questions on Channels TV’s Sunday Politics.
According to Obi, good governance involves learning from best practices, noting that countries such as India, Vietnam, and Egypt—despite being developing nations—have made significant strides in improving electricity supply in recent years.
He said: “It took Egypt five years. They were not going to fix it overnight. But remember what I said, nobody expects 100 per cent success, they want 100 per cent efforts.
“You see development and what you do, governance, must be measurable.
“So if we decide, okay, we are now at 4000 [MW], and I’m only going to do 8000 [MW], there must be improvement.
“It’s not rocket science. The three countries that improve power in the recent time – India, Vietnam and Egypt – they are developing countries.
“So governance is learning from best practices. It is not rocket science.”
