May his soul rest in peace! Before this go any further let it be on record that the deceased did not design any grid nor gave any major design success to National Electricity. We dont to do a mythbust in future so its necessary to counter the lies now before it catches on. Here is official history of electricity in Nigeria. https://nerc.gov.ng/index.php/home/nesi/401-history 1 Like 1 Share |

Apawicked: I know it is normal for you to wake your parents with slap that is why vulgar language is common with you, but then make use of your sense now. I posited that those people got those appointments through nepotism and not merit because the Igbos and their Hausa friends were in charge of Nigeria at least between 1959 and 1966 and your brother in the bid to counter my claim gave an extract from a write up showering encomiums on the Igbos. You would have added that the Premier of the then Eastern region Michael Opara and the ceremonial president Azikiwe escaped death during the coup because they were smart. |
