No other past administration has ever promised us CHANGE. Buhari made 1 billion promises but has never kept one, instead he made everything WORSE than they were. His bad luck is highly contagious. I believe he's either a wizard or ogbanje. This is not ordinary. Nusaf: |

umehmj: But why would we compare our energy situation to dat of the DRC? U do realise d DRC have been embroiled in violent conflicts since the early 90's and are only recently beginning to observe some volatile stability.. "These conflicts have not really been political but also has an economic side, as DR Congo is potentially one of the richest countries on earth with an estimated $24 trillion (£15.5tn, €21.1tn) of untapped mineral resources. With the world's second-largest river flowing through it, DR Congo has limitless water and vast mineral wealth, including abundant deposits of copper, gold, diamonds, cobalt, uranium, coltan and oil. The country also boasts vast energy resources and the World Bank notes that "with a 40GW potential, Inga is the world's largest hydropower site and its proper development can make it the African continent's most cost-effective, renewable source of energy with an estimated generation cost of $0.03 per kilowatt hour."

kceewhyte:Mr man ,I would appreciate it a lot if you fucking stay mute for ever ....can you boast of electricity 24/7? Of course the answer is a capital NO like a capital offence. Its souls like you that open your big buccal cavity's and scream giant of africa while in all ramifications and realism you are nothing but a drop of ink in this Continent. Many African nations have a better standard of living compared to you the giant and the enjoy basic amenities provided by the government while all you enjoy here is the benefits of corruption. You are tagged giant of Africa because the westerners loves to market their products and you boast of a huge population for their market and that's all ......if you can afford it take a trip to nations you guys playdown like Namibia,Mozambique, Gabon etc and compare the standard of living to your's ......RUBBISH 1 Like |

Praktikals: Edmen: Once power was privatised in 2014....that meant that we have to pay for it from our own pockets. But the problem of Nigerians not paying their bills and chasing electricity workers who come to get them to pay has been ongoing for decades.I myself recall that this was an issue as far back as 1990. And as a result....NEPA then PHCN did not have the revenue needed to repair, replace and upgrade equipment.Govt subventions/allocations can only go that far. As a result....when the private companies took over, they inherited a lot of outdated and worn out electrical equipment , especially in the transmission systems. Of course, money is needed, govt is not giving them cash....so they have to raise cash. (And getting it from the banks means debts...which we would still end up paying for in the long run, plus banks won't give them loans because they view Nigerian electricity as a risky venture ). And Nigeria needs at least $1bn annually just to upgrade and repair things. I think the amount is more than that. So.....either we pay...and power improves....or we don't pay, and power remains bad. GSM works because from 2001-05, Nigerians were willing to pay hefty prices (5000Naira for a sim card even)....and the money raised was used to make the equipment better...so that eventually we could pay the lower prices we pay now. Sorry....but that is reality. The DISCOS are private companies. They survive on the money you and I pay for their services. If we stopped paying them because of poor service, they won't be able to improve power supply...because no money. 1 Like |
