The red chamber said Nigerians would not enjoy stable power supply in the next 10 years if the activities of the distribution companies were not reviewed and restructured . The Senate President , Ahmad Lawan , stated this on Tuesday after the Senate had considered and approved a motion by Senator Gabriel Suswan on the power sector recovery plan . He said , “ We gave power to them ( power generation and distribution companies ) and they still come to the public to ask for funds. “ I think it ’ s time for Nigeria to consider reversing the privatisation of the power sector or they should just cancel the entire privatisation process completely . “ If we leave it , we may not have power for another 10 years.” Lawan said, “ The privatisation of the power sector has , so far , not been successful. We expected efficiency and effectiveness in the power supply . “ The Discos have no capacity to supply us power . The Gencos have challenges too . “ It is not a good commentary that we should continue to give them money . They ’re private businesses . We need to review this privatisation . “ Our committee needs to investigate trillions spent. That ’s a lot of money . “ Try to find out what has happened so far. Government needs to look at this whole thing . (at Lagos, Nigeria) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA0VDEjFaNN/?igshid=10ty1bdikro75

In a ruling on Tuesday, Justice Nicholas Nicholas Oweibo held that Diezani, through her lawyer, Awa Kalu (SAN), failed to show cause why the items should not be permanently forfeited to the Federal Government. . . The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had told the judge that the jewellery and iPhone were reasonably suspected to be acquired with fraud proceeds. . . The anti-graft agency said the items were beyond Diezani’s legitimate earnings. . . . #nkonlineblog #naijacelebrity #Nigerianews #nigeriasenate #bbnaija #blackfathers #diezani (at SPICE Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2PDzrZlst-/?igshid=brssxyu3uurm
