Posted by on March 5, 2024 0

Aba power plant, with the capacity to produce 188 MWT of electricity, was started 20 years ago, and it’s expected to supply power to Aba metropolis and eight other local government areas within the Aba ring-fenced area.

A northern group, Arewa Think Tank has applauded the Abia State government over its Geometric Power Plant in Aba that will provide light to Aba Metropolis and eight other LGAs.
The group also hailed the president/chief executive officer of Geometric Power Plant (GPP), Aba, Prof. Barth Nnaji for the initiative.

In a statement issued by the chief convener of Arewa Think Tank, Muhammad Alhaji Yakubu, the group commended the proponent of the Geometric Power Plant, Prof. Barth Nnaji who is the former minister of power during President Goodluck Jonathan administration.
 
“We also want to commend Prof. Barth Nnaji, the proponent of Geometric Power, Aba, who resigned as Minister of power during the Jonathan administration because of lack of technical expertise in the privatisation process. He insisted that all DISCOS must have two things, technical expertise and financial independence to operate, so as to weed out those who wanted to use privatisation to make quick money,” he said.
The Arewa group noted that after he left, many of the DISCOS eventually failed due to lack of technical expertise, and the banks they borrowed money from took over the assets.
