What stadium is that???
nigeria is corupt as f*ck.The thing I admire about the projects in our country compared to a country like Nigeria is that they actually get completed and are most the time a good value for money.
I've seen that, they make the best comedians though.nigeria is corupt as f*ck.
who responds like that. we are not america
how corrupt is ethiopia btw. is money in the billions concentrated in the hands of the few elite families, how about police do they ask for bribes and are jobs gotten on tribe.
Looks nice, but them Egyptians might bomb it once there water supply runs low, it'll take 10+ yrs to fill that dam up

How much did this project cost, was there any alternatives like wind or solar to save the cost, it looks very expensiveThey are not going to bomb it, keep up with the news. I would have believed they would have done that if that Morsi was still president.
And nah it doesn't take that long, the river was diverted over a year ago, and it should be operational by mid 2017. Unless African punctuality takes over.
That looks amazing.Better live up to it's renders

I always hear them say they will sell power to neighboring nations. does this mean it meets all of Ethiopia's demand and has some left over(the dam).$6 billion-ish. And nah not an alternative to completely make this investment meaningless. A wind or solar power plant, that will generate as much power as this would take up way too much land.
They recently invested in wind power too anyways, one recently opened in 2015 in Adama:
But the dam generates over 40 times more power than the wind farm.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Should be done by mid-2017

i swear china is a great partner. so sad somalis are fighting instead of competing.They'll be selling electricity yes, and nah it doesn't mean that, but the country itself is the main priority not the countries buying electricity. They say it can power the whole country, but that will require a lot of transmission lines to be made.
And this dam isn't the only one that is being used for electricity. Gibe 3 dam opened early 2017 as well, quite large too
Of course we can get dams that can power up the whole country, but it's not worth it for us to invest in such expensive projects.Is there any chance of Somalia ever getting a dam?

Ethiopia has well over 100+million ppl, they have to make huge enormous expensive dams for there ppl, they can't use a lot of there lands for solar and wind like we can, we have probably 16million ppl living in Somalia, we just need solar farms and wind farms to power every town, it's way cheaper and easier to build than huge dams.
We still need dams for agricultural and water security tho but it's gonna be way cheaper and easier to maintain than GERD.
It won't be just 1 big plant it'll be small plants in each region,Do you happen to know how much it would cost to build a solar panel plant capable of supporting 12 million people?
Italy was involved too in that one, but yeah China is a good partner.i swear china is a great partner. so sad somalis are fighting instead of competing.
