PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match
« on: March 23, 2007, 07:50 AM »

Strange things won't stop happening in our country!  Sad  Sad

I heard just now that NEPA or PHCN has appealed to
residents of Abeokuta to switch off their electrical appliances
during the Eagles Vs Cranes of Uganda match so that enough
power can be available to run the flood lights at the stadium.  Shocked  Shocked

I couldn't believe this at first until the Sport News Programme of
Rhythm 93.7 was read. Na wa o.  Huh  Embarrassed  Embarrassed

But if these people knew all along that they won't be able to power
the flood lights, why not tell the NFA to play the match in the afternoon
or even morning sef?  Embarrassed  Embarrassed  Embarrassed

We won't stop making ourselves laughing stock of the International
community. I keep asking myself how we got to this shameful position
as a country

 Cry  Cry  Cry  Cry

(How come this is my 1000th post?) Huh  Huh

Why did they choose Abeokuta and why can't they afford a generator?

So they want Abeokuta residents to miss the match holding in their town?  How ridiculous.

Well, I'm not surprised. I've seen stranger things in this country. Let's ask Obasanjo why the power situation in Nigeria has deteriorated, since he promised us 24hours uninterrupted power supply before he became president 8 years ago. What a big shame!  Angry

Why they chose Abeokuta is what I don't know.

But I am sure the stadium managment were not informed yesterday
that they will be hosting the match. Did everyone had to switch off
during the National Sports Festival or what?

If people switch off their appliances, how do they get to watch the match?
Is the stadium large enough to contain all the residents of Abeokuta?

Some people should be SACKED as soon as they open their dirty mouth
to spew bollocks. The last time I heard some come on air to say the power
situation won't improve until after May Huh

Do we even have sensible people heading our Public offices? They just
open their mouth to say senseless things. WHAT A SHAME!

They should have a way of regulating power in the state so that adequate power would be available for the stadium. If not, then they should buy or rent  a generator that can cover the stadium.  Grin

Does it mean that the stadium was built without a generator being in place?

@brownbaby That's the point. That's why they sound stupid. If they don't want people to use electical appliances, then they should cut off power from the whole of the state, which would cause katakata!

Razoor,

If they cut off power supply, the stadium may also be affected. Maybe
that is what they are avoiding.  Embarrassed

Prolly they should task the Rich Super Eagles to contribute some money
so that they can procure a GOOD Generator  Grin  Grin  Grin

@Nigeria, send Mopol? They will have to summon all the Mopols in Nigeria to
Abeokuta o. How many houses dey Abeokuta? How many Mopol will they
need to monitor all the houses?  Huh  Huh  Huh

I am they are not that stupid, but this is Naija, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!  Huh

The logical thing for them to do is get a generator. The other option for them would be to make power available to the areas around the stadium and cut off power from the rest of the state.

How i wish the people refused their plea and switch on their appliances
let the stadium goes off so the world could know the magnitude of their foolishness.

isnt the stadium suppose to have it own sets of plant that supply power rather than depending on helpless nepa.

something is terribly wrong with the power supply in that town. I read in the papers yesterday that 3 damsels were roasted in their hostel as a result of this PHCN supply of power plus the school's negligence,  I think that Abeokuta needs special attention in this regard. Its a shame. Sad
