Niger should go ahead and put a dam on the River like Ethiopia is doing at River Niles.


They eventually will. And at that point, they will have enough reason to do so.

Do you even understand simple English at all? The project was initiated in 2018. It has been ongoing and got completed this year. So why shaming BAT. The current juntas just benefited from long term plan of Francis consortium

Shame on BAT for cutting them off. Nigeria is a very useless country, ordinary water and light FG can not provide for its citizens for more than 60 years.

Prior to the coup, I recall some Nigerians have been against Nigeria supplying power to Niger, considering the epileptic power supply in Nigeria. Now we have stopped supplying power to Niger (though out of vendetta) and same people are still complaining undecided

Interesting to see that the french has established relationship with the junta government. It shows that they don't really care about democracy, they care about their interest. Nigeria should have been wiser than this... Never fight your brother, especially when pushed by outsiders.

Interesting thing is that despite cutting of Niger from our national grid, our own power supply hasn't improved. The electricity that was hitherto supplied to Niger, where is it?? Abi hasn't it been added back to our own supply? Nigeria, the country of 'the more you see, the less you understand!'

May be F.G should seek for interventions from Niger Republic to give Nigeria light abeg....

Solar energy in Nigeria is seen as an appetite for the rich than what Government can key in to get Nigeria out of darkness.....lols

The problem with Nigeria is that lord luggard trained our elite fore fathers to always distinguish between the POOR and the RICH.....

And it was the elite fore fathers that later got their wards into the Government.....so Nigerian Government is always about limitations ....
She can never give all to the masses.....there must be poor visible people.....
That's why TINUBU said ...."let the POOR BREATH" ....

Difficult times calls for innovative thinking. We need to be forward thinkers in difficult times, Instead if sit down and complain.

No value is irreplaceable

That's it.
Necessity is the mother of invention.

When will Nigeria tap fully into solar energy herself? Pathetic

We are shaming BAT because he goofed big time by suspending power supply to Niger Republic. Nigeria has reneged on a sign contract with Niger Republic and other West African countries on the river Niger, the agreement was to supply them electricity to prevent them from building a dam upstream on the river. This contract had been in place for over 5 decades - through both civilian and military governments. A change of power Tinubu does not like is not enough reason to bridge the contract. Nigeria would suffer much more should Niger Republic decide to dam the river Niger.

Isn't it yet time to stop talking and start doing. Especially in the SE? You don't need "freedom" to do PPP projects, develop key infrastructure and create regional economic linkages.
