The Gencos have exhausted all their borrowing sources, as the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) warned the banks to desist from lending money to them.

The Association of Power Generation Companies has explained that the power supply situation in the country is worsening because they are being owed N1.644 trillion since 2013.

She stated, “If you give us gas, provide forex to carry out maintenance. I have told you most of the units are down and they need money to fix them. She said claims that the Gencos have the capacity to generate 9,000MW are not accurate, as inspections by NBET had shown that the so-called capacity does not exist.

However, Ogaji insisted that the illiquidity caused by the huge sums owed the Gencos by NBET had continued to frustrate them and render them incapable of meeting their obligations. Ogaji listed foreign exchange as another challenge faced by the hydroelectric power plants, whose concession fees, she maintained were “dollarised.”
