Unpatriotic people people that parade as leaders. Have they made electricity available before banning generators.
More so, generating sets is for backup purpose.
Bunch of backward thinkers.
They will still promote a bill banning condoms.

Mad people, look at the idiots u all voted into power. When we tell u is not about party, some of u won't listen

Aswear!

The same foolish voters are gearing up to vote more idiots in Edo and Ondo States later this year!

Femich18:


You are funny. The Govt. has failed the people in the aspect of providing power. Why not provide stable electricity and see the drastic reduction in the use of Generators by coop bodies and individual homes? Why putting the cart before the horse?

To be sincere the only way Nigeria can get over this mess is when the ruling class and the masses start feeling the same thing. Do you think if the president, vice president, senators and house rep members kids attend Nigeria institutions ASUU will be going on strike every week? If not for cabals holding the electricity of this country we generate 4000 but distribute 3000. The reason why the Government is not bothered is because they've stable Gen at home.


Nigeria don't have her own refinery yet because some people don't want us too in other to steal while they claim to export to refine it. Until strict rules like this are put in place nothing positive will happen in Nigeria.

I doubt if the bill will scale through and if it does are the Elites going to abide by it? Because in Nigeria some people are bigger than the law. If the law will be enforceable to all drastic changes will be made but It'll be very difficult for Nigerians to adapt.

I think this is a good bill. This is because there are so many importers of generators that would do everything possible to frustrate every effort by FG to steadily improve electricity supply nation wide. But with the ban, everybody will sit up, including FG, electricity supply contractors, and every other person in the value chain. Even the ordinary people will begin to ask questions and in a short while, 24/7 electricity will be achieved. But as it is presently, I do not see us achieving 24/7 electricity because many people have alternative and do not care. Don't forget necessity is the mother of invention.

Make solar affordable

In Nigeria solar is not working because of low quality batteries found in Nigeria market.

Why not fix electricity issue first before placing ban on generator.
This bill is a bad market for oil companies

What about importers of low quality inverter batteries

Y using generator when there is electricity.. Ndiara

Bunch of useless people called law makers, you're banning generator when your government doesn't have policies to improve electricity consumption.

FATHER, Bless Me this Senator!
This will be Wonderful if it passes ..

But I doubt it! The Wickedness in Nigeria leadership is too much...

I hope they SUPRISE me and Pass this Bill!



Modified: Its Clear that A whole lot of Nigerians have been made not to know the source of their Problems..

Make una continue oooo

See ehn its not by magic a 70something retired general whose younger sis is about 80something is the president, most people here are just narrow-minded and can not even comprehend a simple bill as this, if they ban generator we would die...no one is talking of the part that concerns developing the power sector...nigerians dont think...

About fcking time......

slickbak:

Hmmmm smh, it shall be well with you.

Meaning...

CSTR2:

Generators is not the reason why you have poor power.

If you allow these Mad Men to ban generator, you have succeeded in not only decimating your economy, but have also reduce Your Own standard of living significantly.

And I can bet that you can't stop this same senator from using generator.

it's absolute madness ridiculous and like you have rightly asserted, no one can stop the stupid senator from using his generator.

Idiot fix light before you ban.


You don't ban without putting another working measure in place

Shouldn't they outlaw shortage of electricity first? Them fit kuku pass the bill like Lagos threw all into trekking spree! Awon ndi ara!

Jokers I guess they will use the money they stole from the covers to power the the country darkness

How did this goon become a senator?

Baddestguyp:
I actually support this bill...trust me if it gets passed in 6 months our electricity will improve so much...
A lot of companies both foreign and Nigerian rely so much on power supply...there will be so much pressure on the govt to fix the power sector...we Nigerians will just have to endure for a few months and you'll be shocked at the improvement in the power sector

Mumu talk

It is a welcome developments. Our problem is that we do not have good implementation plans.

Believe you me, if we can have steady power supply for 18 hours every day what do we need generators for?

Come to my area you no go hear word because of too many generators disturbing at the same time.

A compound where we have 10 generators powered at the same time(in the evening as there will be football match today come and see)

So, our government should do the needful first by stabilizing power supply.

This white beard man is crazy. Maybe he contested from abroad. He doesn't stay in Nigeria, as such, he should not have won the election. He has nothing to offer in that house.

He is a disgrace to his constituency. He should be recalled!

CSTR2:
The IQ of the north is too low even for African standards.
A country whose economy is generator powered wants to ban generator.

These same northern senators are the clowns sponsoring ludicrous bills like social media bill, immunity for lawmakers bill and other nonsense bills.

Abeg,these people too dull. They cannot develop this country in a thousand years.

Such almajiri like thinking cannot work in this fast paced 21st century.

Stop insulting the whole region. Only if you knew how this kind of generalisation portray you.

This man dey craze Sha,u want to ban generator,where is your govt doing with electricity?

guy, be reasonable. This is step forward. Be forward thinker, please.

Following the ban, this should force solar price down and subsequently force govt to improve electricity. I learned this morning that power outage is uncommon in the North. That northerners take the streets to protest NEPA if they should ever take the light. This shows that the North know their rights compared to the so called educated SW. Politicians in the SW are greedy moda4kas

Omolomo4eva:

They want to stop use and sale of generator not give uninterrupted light.
If there is uninterrupted light will you buy generator?
Why don't they give us uninterrupted light so that generators phase out. Do we really need a law for forces of demand and supply
