Seun: How many data centers do we have in Nigeria? Do you know that I hardly see 24 hours of light for a week? Yes, less than 24 hours for the whole week somewhere in Calabar. 3 Likes |

femi4: He won't understand because He can afford 50 litres of petrol for a day. He doesn't mind if there is light or not. When I have less than 24 hours light for the whole week.. I buy fuel at the rate of 100 NGN per litre. 1 Like |

Youngzedd:Data centers don't have to be in Nigeria except for sensitive businesses like banking. It makes a lot of sense to use data centers in countries where electricity is very cheap for most web-based businesses. The cost of hosting is insignificant compared to what you can make online. 1 Like |

Seun:Nigeria do not have steady power supply,most area in Nigeria today barely see like twice a week.we need steady power supply. |
Re: Software Developers Could Save Nigeria After Oil - Mark Essien by femi4: 7:55am On Mar 21, 2015 |
Youngzedd:Why are you buying fuel @ that rate? There should be price regulation across the Country |
Re: Software Developers Could Save Nigeria After Oil - Mark Essien by Youngzedd(m): 7:58am On Mar 21, 2015 |
femi4: That's the amount this guys are selling it here. During the scarcity it was 130 NGN. |

Re: Software Developers Could Save Nigeria After Oil - Mark Essien by Seun(m): 8:01am On Mar 21, 2015 |
femi4:Yes. A laptop draws less than 60w of power. That suggests a 600va generator which costs less than 14k and uses little fuel can power up to 8 laptops while drawing an insignificant amount of fuel. To work from 8am to 5pm I don't think you'll spend up to 1000 naira daily on petrol. 1 Like |

Seun:our database construction Is poor. Compiler construction is nothing to write home about and so many other problems. Investing in software developing is a waste of money because Nigeria can't stand the competition in that aspect. Lol even our operation system contruction is bad. |

kastonkastrol:I dont quite agree with you, i think if government supports us, there will be more positive results - the kind seun osewa is talking about. I dont wish to create so much arguments here, but our environment at the moment is very harsh for programmers any way you wish to look at it. |
