The Netherlands Embassy in Nigeria has provided solar min-grid for an uninterrupted power supply to 30 households in Kalaba community, Bayelsa state.

The 8.5kw power project was also channeled to supply electricity to the Community Health Centre.

A spokesman for Environmental Rights Action/Friends of the Earth Nigeria (ERA/FoEN), Barrister Nosa Tokunbor, who commissioned the project commended the Netherlands Embassy for the gesture.

Tokunbor in a statement made available to Blueprint said environmental rights group implemented the project with technical support from Community Research and Development Centre (CREDC).

He charged the beneficiaries to jealously protect and properly manage the solar-mini grid system so as to enjoy the maximum benefits “especially by children who need the light source to read their books at nighttime.”

The joke is on Bayelsa state government

Since their very vseless govt can't provide stable power supply despite the fact that the country has abundant resources for electricity.

8.5kva… this is equivalent to one tiger generator… well they tried

Plight of the Niger Delta people is like the golden egg that's feeding on sand.

Their elites, traditional ruler and politicians are their greatest enemies.

They're like bastards to the region.

Can't imagine if the Niger Delta was to be in the US, it would be the cynosure of top-notch infrastructural development and social package for the people.

Abeg, who go buy Nigerian citizenship?

Bayelsa people (political leaders) stealing Bayelsa money while Netherland government is providing infrastructure in Bayelsa with Netherland's money. Shame

That's Bayelsa state with less than 4 million population.

What have their past and present governors being doing with all the Oyel money they have been receiving?

Crazychris:
8.5kva equivalent to 1 tiger generator? Is that what they taught you in school?



Olodo oshi

poverty has eaten deep into your psychic; when I say tiger generator I don’t mean that small generator ( I pass my neighbor) in your house.. a standard domestic tiger generator is even more than 10kva..
