As committed Nigerians we advised government against it. But the government was hell bent of doing so\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201d The investors are still operating with obsolete equipment dating back to 35, 40, and 50 years. One will expect that with the coming of the investors they will replaced these obsolete equipment but nothing has been done.<\/p>\n<p>The union said the nation still generates 5,000 megawatts of electricity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the same 5,000 megawatts we used to generate. So what is the benefit of privitazation? \u201c<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe now generate megawatts with higher tariffs. Bringing hardships to the homes of millions of Nigerians. This will only happen in Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A member of Central Executive Committe, Wisdom Nwachukwu noted that the federal government now wants to sale Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are going behind meeting with some stakeholders.
