This is one of the catalysts which can make the country to become one of the top 20 economics in the world.

When Jonathan assumed office, the power generation was 2,250 megawatts, but today it is 4,000 and by December this year the countrys generation will hit 6,000.

The transformation agenda of the present administration has helped to transform every sector of the economy, especially the power sector, he said.

Please who understands what he's talking about? Is there any improvement in power where you stay? In the past 10 day, we only had power in my house for about 4 hours yesterday. So, I really need some explanation.

Has power improved where you stay?
