All these unions and associations embarking on strike should please and plaese pity us cos its really the masses that are suffering from it not the top shots, they have acquired enough wealth to take care of them selves and their families , they don't depend on their basic salaries , they hav fuel dumps and can afford to buy black market at any amount if the need arises , they have stand buy generators in their houses , they go to private hospitals or fly out for medical check up and their children school abroad . So they hardly feel the impact at all , Pls striking unions and associations consider the masses that are suffering pls. 3 Likes |

The petroleum minister was aboard the aircraft to UK today, when the ministry under her direct watch is on fire with the NUPENG/ PENGASAN strike that has wrecked harvoc on the power sector. This is the highest show of irresponsibility ever. The contentious issue responsible for the strike was solely caused by her personal greed and recklessness. I still wonder why GEJ kept this witch for 4 yrs. This woman deserves underground dungeon in kirikiri. 8 Likes |

The rest of Africa will see this and laugh at una. Our current production is not enough to power a town in some countries. The activity or lack thereof on this thread also underscores what we prioritize. If na Yansh-talk or tribal page go long sotey. While GEJ has been a failure, our epileptic power supply is generations in the making. Thanks to IBB, Abacha, bigger thanks to OBJ and GEJ, and how can I leave out our gullible masses who continue to suffer and smile while beating chest as the giant of Africa. 10 Likes |

Under Obasanjo, more than US$12 Billion was spent on power projets while Jonathan spent US$35 Billion. Where did all the billions go to? China Spent $25B For 22,000MW while Jonathan spent $35B For 2500MW!!!! Obasanjo and Jonathan should be thrown in jail. 7 Likes |

Captainswag225: Being Billionare does not neccesarily mean you have a $1Billion in your account, even Dangote doesnot have $1billion in the bank, its the assets you own, shares in companies, properties, luxury good e.g airplanes and cars. So they cannot do much. its a embarrasing for the self proclaim "GIANT OF AFRICA" turning into "giant of ants". 1327MW for 160m people, wow. 1 Like |

Deregulate the power sector and see massive change in the country positively. Ban generator use and importation permanently. Revoke the licence given to incompetent family and friends in Nigeria. The in coming government should address this, it is very important. I am surprised that the incoming government mentioned just insecurity, corruption and unemployment as their main priority without mentioning power, education and health. Too bad. In 2015 Naija I hail oooo, which way ooo. |

Captainswag225: All those who bought into the privatisation are millionaires and billionaires in dollar terms (albeit through the black economy) so the money is not the problem but the framework of the entire process and the flawed philosophy of our energy industry that is heavily skewed in favour of oil and gas of Niger-Delta source. On top of that we are not willing to make the sacrifices as a people (ar exemplified by unionist interests) to cultivate and nuture the industry. |

josh4ever: You are both right. He is right in the sense that, generally it is not the business of the publican to know the nuts and bolts of how the machinery of government works. That is why they elect, appoint and pay these folks. But you are also right because if you liken the Nigerian Project to a start-up company (in terms of age and development) then everyone involved is a stake-holder and gets involved in every aspect to a high degr3 of detail. |
