Were there 'vandalisers' in the last dispensation?


They were there...and they were a problem too!(Back then some PDP followers blamed the ''opposition'''and the ''North'')

Which is why GEJ was trying to get OPC, and the Millitants to help with security for the pipelines. Not a very good idea...but the thinking behind it was not flawed.

And power back then improved....in some places. In some others...power remained bad. Thing is...5000MW is not enough. We need 20000MW.

Nigerian no how to adjust, nigeria also know how to bear, even if fuel scarcity last for years polictician will not lack because they all have surface tanks, for those that do not have they will enter any filling station that sell normal and buy with force.
We are all afraid of death.

i have concluded plans to seek asylum in switzerland and the netherlands. the govt of this jungle called Nigeria is eternally persecuting its own citizen by deliberately refusing to better the life of Nigerians. hence the need for the asylum.

When apc tookover, electricity improved in most part of the country, the country recorded its highest megawatt generation. Most people can testify to that. Until vandalism started.


LIES! When they took over, the power enjoyed was as a result the high density of rainfall during the rainy season which powered the Dams! Everybody was jumping up and down chanting Sai baba! Now rain don reduce and breeze don blow so we can now see Fashola's nyash!

Fuel issue, most of know its due to some greedy oil dealers who r not happy with buharis policy. Cos it will prevent them from making money illegally.

Another LIE! When buhari came into power, he promised marketers he was going to pay them subsidy but he failed to! Can you please tell me which policy you are talking about here

[quote author=Godswillnwaoma post=44261390]Since Nigeria independent in 1960 Nigeria government can't still boast of 24hrs electricity. Its just a shame.


May God forgive those who drag this great country's name to the floor,cuz nigeria is a blessing to mother earth but people are the track runners who drag it to its current state,start by asking yourself what u have done to make it great
Re: No Light, No Fuel: When Will This Suffering End? (photo) by Nobody: 1:43pm On Mar 31, 2016
But why can't ordinary Nigerians use their own initiative when it comes to the production of electricity?

I'm not even close to Nigeria yet I am making sure my masters degree/work experience will be centred around environmental waste conversion to energy. I hope to come back to make excellent use of this knowledge. However it will be difficult if there is no collective effort.

Of what use is your brain if you do not use it?

Dear Nigerian Adults, please wake up and start using your brains...

Please how are you going about it? Furnish me with details by PM! I tried to check if they offer visa lottery like the US but didn't get any results. Switzerland, Norway, Denmark or Finland on my mind undecided

My major problem with the GEJ government back then was that they did not tell us that it was going to take a long time to fix power in Nigeria.

And that is my issue with the APC govt too.

As for me...based on my studying the power situation for the last ten years.....I think that it is going to take a while before we see 24/7 electricity in Nigeria. We have to fix the transmission system for a start.

Take a look at the second pics below to see how people plug in their rechargeable lamb and their phones whenever I put on my generator.

My fellow Nigerians are we going to continue living like a this in this country.
Many things have gone wrong in this country and we need to put an end to it.

The govt is aware already. No need to broadcast.
Funny enough, while this govt is trying hard to achieve something close to this, it is still some useless nigerians who go ahead to vandalize gas pipelines.

Was it aired that vandalization took place? or they want to siphon money through this? Please we should wise up cos every administration uses Nepa issue to steal from us.

This adminstration needs support and time. After 4yrs we will judge them. N i believe they wont want to loose.

The issue of apc govt can be related to d phrase" easier said than done"
They are power mongers
Not in anyway diff 4m PDP
All they want is power they never had a blueprint to make any change except you are so blind not to see this

If you did not defend GEJ for providing Nigerians with about 5k MW of electricity, I don't see why you should start defending Buhari now that the MW have dropped to 2k. Thanks.

Actually, that is not correct.

The current blackouts began in 1978...the same year the old Electricity Corp of Nigeria became the National Elelctric Power Authority.

The problem was, in my opinion, aggravated by

1.Lots of people getting connected to the National Grid , espeically from the 1980's onward without an increase in generation.

2.Many Organisations and people not paying their bills.

3.The messed up transmission system.

It is a shame, yes....but fixing it up is going to take a very long time. In fact my annoyance with the GEJ and PMB admins is that they are not honest enough to tell us that it would take a long time.

Modified....And now we are in Front Page....

On a more serious note....if you expect 24 hours power supply in the enxt few years, you might have to wait a little while longer.

The transmission and generation system needs fixing. And we need to generate far more than what we have because 5000MW is not enough for Nigeria...whichever way you look at it.

I would like the government and the DISCOS to be honest with us and tell us that it is going to take long...and what needs to be done. Not promises,promises.!

simple solution to the power problem is power decentralization. It makes no sense to be transmitting electricity over long distances! Cause you lose a lot of electricity when you do and the issue of vandalization because of so much km of pipeline to transport gas needed for power generation. But they won't decentralize because some backward regions in this country are pulling us back and won't have anybody to generate and distribute electricity to them once they implement use as you generate policy. 2nd solution is still linked to decentralization and that is renewable energy, I watched a video on YouTube of how Australia setup a wind turbine farm producing 350mw from 152 wind turbines in 9months! It's just so simple, produce and distribute to the nearest location, Lagos is currently getting around 300mw and below from national grid but if they push for power decentralization, a state like Lagos can establish such a scheme and before u know it, every state will be producing their own power without sending all the way to national grid and spending money on transmission and still losing electricity along the way

5000MW? Are you for real? Was it not last week that it dropped to 1200MW?
