BY CHIDI NKWOPARA
OWERRI\u2014The Federal Government has said the major thrust of its transformation agenda in the power sector was to ensure improved electricity supply to the citizenry.<\/p>\n

The Minister of Power, Prof Barth Nnaji, who stated this during the commissioning of N131 million 60MVA, 132\/33 KV power transformer in Owerri, also promised that fire-fighting equipment would be installed in all PHCN sub-stations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe attainment of this lofty goal is predicated on the construction of critical power infrastructure, as well as the reinforcement of existing network facilities across the country\u201d, Nnaji said.<\/p>\n

It was the considered view of the Minister that \u201cthe commissioning of this new power transformer is a result of the Federal Government\u2019s prompt action in replacing the burnt 45MVA power transformer in this sub-station with a new 60 MVA power transformer\u201d.<\/p>\n

Speaking also, Governor Rochas Okorocha lamented that public power supply has been a major problem in Nigeria, stressing that the nation\u2019s stagnating economic milieu stems from this ugly situation.<\/p>\n

He appealed to the federal government to upgrade the facilities in Orlu and Okigwe zones of the state, adding that \u201cwe can\u2019t ask for anything better than steady power supply.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
