Speaking at an audience with members of the Board of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company led by Vice President Namadi Sambo in Abuja on Tuesday, President Jonathan said that his Administration remains fully committed to the attainment of uninterrupted power supply in Nigeria before the end of its tenure in 2015. He added that the Federal Government is mindful of importance of steady power supply to national development, and would therefore do everything possible to ensure that all its plans and projects to guarantee stable power supply are successfully implemented.

“We all know the importance of power. We look forward to a time when Nigerians can enjoy uninterrupted power supply from the beginning to the end of a year and we are working hard to ensure that that objective is attained within the life-span of this Administration.”

"...that the level of commitment of the Federal Government to move the minerals and metal sector forward has necessitated the enactment of various regulatory frameworks such as mining regulations which was meant to complement the Nigerian Minerals and Mining Act of 2007..."
“...Mr. President’s own agenda is to provide for improved economic standing of the country and the solid minerals sector is being looked at as being responsible for additional input, apart from oil and I think the only way we can do it is by having everyone on board to come up with his or her own ideas so that we would be able to move forward...”

"...The President does not like to bandy words on these 4,000MW, 3,000MW and 6,000MW. What the President wants is that there is actual improvement and wherever we get to we stay there...6,000MW won't even do anything for Nigeria. So we are not talking about 6,000MW at all. We are talking about power reliability in the country..."
