Sincere 9gerian: One thing that gladdens my heart in the last few weeks is the DECIMATION of the haters on this forum. Even when the battle is yet to begin, the camp of the haters is already in TURMOIL. You are part of the problem in Nigeria. Product of massive corruption. A liar and a thief. 1 Like |

thegoodjoehunt: No area in PHC has been cut off from the grid. Or do you have any proof that supports your claim? As someone earlier mentioned, you need to check your area's distribution transformer. Keep in mind that I also leave in PHC and I know for a fact that consumers connected to the Federal distribution line enjoy way more hours of light than those of us connected to the state distribution line. |

Guk: In conclusion, a lot of us are unaware of the Wickedness in governance in Nigeria. 99.99% of those in power couldnt care less about your plight, infact, you dont exist to them & if you do, its to use you to make money. All the noise the govt makes about one project or the other is simply to line their pockets. The projects are unbelievebly over inflated whether its power; roads; airport or everyday governance. Legislators set up probe committes just to line their pockets even though they collect armed robbers salaries. Its is rumoured they collect 500k overnight allowance. All the politicians & the accompanying SSAs;SAs;TAs; & contract hunters are all adding to the destruction of Nigeria & we are aiding them by watching and then abusing ourselves along tribal lines on Social Media. i was about to agree with all of this until i got to the last paragraph - if you really think NOI, SLS and Oby have your interest at heart then you havent really understood who your enemies are in nigeria. NOI, SLS and Oby are all agents of the western financial banking cartels - they were appointed by those institutions to implement neo liberal economic policies which facilitate the transfer of nigeria's wealth into the hands of western banks and corporations , they are paid huge sums of money for betraying their own people, therefore the idea that these same people will come to the rescue of the nigerian masses is laughable. One thing you must begin to understand is that Goodluck Jonathan , Okonjo Iweala and other nigerian elite have no say on any economic policies that are being implemented in nigeria today - they are merely errand boys of the banks and multinational corporations of the united states and britain - this is why Okonjo Iweala says at the end "we are selling everything off" that statement says it all - she is following the neo liberal economic policies of her masters in washington and london ie privatisation of nigeria's public assets - I still shake my head in disbelief when i hear nigerians clamouring for the privatisation of all their public services - privatisation of public services takes these services out of the control of the nigerian people and places them into the hands of foreigners who can increase prices whenever they feel like - effectively privatisation is like selling off your inheritance to foreigners but many nigerians are unaware of this. In progressive societies privatisation is minimised and there is more emphasis on govt improving the services that it already provides this is what happened in Venezuela under Chavez and the results were positive. Under Chavez administration literacy increased and poverty decreased within a very short space of time, this what we need in nigeria someone like Chavez who will work in the interests of the masses of nigeria to rebuild the nation and lift millions of people out of ignorance and poverty. 1 Like |

thegoodjoehunt:Dude, did you read the part where he wrote that those under federal line in PH have very stable power supply ? I'm in ph most times of the year and I stay at D/line axis our light is very steady there, hopefully when Amaechi rounds up his power roadmap the situation will improve considerably. I know the agip axis has improved from 2011 and last year and iwofe side has also improved but there is power rationing. So chill this is no scam except you just like the word |

Yet you want me to prove that it is true. Why don't you prove me wrong. I gave you a reason and you say you want proof. Please you should prove me wrong. |

So chill this is no scam except you just like the word Please it was recently, last year I think that D-Line started seeing light. I wrote that Rumueme light has improved, that is also the AGIP axis. As for Iwofe, no light. I have friends living there and they complain. As for the other areas like Rumuodomaya and Rumuogholu, they are in total darkness. How can that be improved power? These areas don't have, while the other areas have. If power has improved, light would have been supplied to all areas and not one area in darkness and the other area with constant light. If it isn't a scam, I wonder what it is. Why can't they say that Light has improved in some places, while in other places it has gone worse. Instead they will say Light has improved. How can at Rumuola area, Timothy lane and some of the beginning side of Rumuola be with light and then after RIVCAS down to Rumukwuta, those areas are in darkness. What kind of improvement in power is that? |

thegoodjoehunt:I understand what you're saying but the aspect of d/line is quite wrong because from sangana str down to omoku street have always had steady power supply ever since I started frequenting ph in 2005 and many of the residents in those areas are involved in their respective electricity committees which are recognised by phcn Diobu business district and so any area there that has a problem with their transformer for example for an extended period will only have themselves to blame if they don't mobilize themselves (ie raise cash, phcn is very corrupt) I mentioned agip axis improving because I have family members there and I know what they used to go through. I don't know about most of those places you mentioned but if you ask any phcn staff, they'll tell you to get an apartment utilizing "federal/owerri line" maybe hopefully when Amaechi completes his electricity plans other areas will improve like eagle island.

I know exactly what you are saying but I disagree with you concerning D-Line and Light. I used to work at Omoku Street at that time. That is '05. We used Gen. regularly. That is opposite Cash N Carry. I agree that Diobu had light but it didn't reach Manilla Pepple talk less of Omoku street. Secondly, I am not talking of Transformer problem. There wasn't regular light in D-Line then but Ogbunabali and Old GRA had very steady and regular light. Then as you said, Agip didn't have light, Rumueme, Mile 3 etc, had the same power supply as D-Line. Same with Mgbougba and Rumuagholu (my cousins stay there). Now some areas have light but the areas I mentioned like Rumukwuta do not have light. For instance, for five days light hasn't even come at all. For the last months, the light might come after 3 weeks to a month of Darkness only at night from 11:00pm and go by 5:00am. For about 3 days, then you go for another month or 3 weeks of Darkness. That isn't a transformer thing. These areas are definitely blocked off of light and the Government can't say they don't know about it. Thanx, take care and later. |

Bros perhaps you are a little hopeful that Nigerians are politically aware but you'll be shocked to know that the so called "certificated/educated" are actually the source of the Nigerian problem . I am not optimistic at all. Nigerians are indeed everywhere in the world but lack the ability to be discerning to see/learn or imbibe simple things around even political values from good leaders like you mentioned, Nigeria have failed and shamed the African race irretrievably. The country presently is not fit for purpose under the present/past leadership either. Even in so called developed West they guard/protect their strategic assets/industries. After all what was the bail out of the banks and motor industry in Obama's USA about if not protectionism ? French colonial actions in Africa and of course British covert/overt interventions everywhere in so called Anglophone countries. Longest time no see?

Eko Ile: What an embarrassment, even worse than elebel Jonathan abdul el reterdeen odechukwu's encounter with CNN. She was just doing her job and it would appear that she is good at it. Do you want her giving a contradictory verdict from what her boss gave CNN a while ago? Of course she is not ACN or is it APC or whatever you folks choose to call yourselves these days, so you would see things lopsidedly. If it was Farce-ola, then you'd be quick to run to his defence.

Elueme: You are really funny. I read your garbage anytime am less busy and at times it's difficult to comment because of the level of critical thinking, objectivity and reasoning on the forum. But suffice I say that you and some other folks have been too consistent at attacking anything that has to do with the present government but are so quick to shout uhuru when it bears on Tinubu and cohorts cum ACN/APC( it calls for suspicion). You are at liberty to have an interest but declare your nomenclature rather than hiding in the cloak of a social commentator to misinform some low thinkers like you.( insult not intended). You are not as pained as I am with the fate of our country and continent and you probably couldn't have made 1/4 th effort some of us have made to attempt a change in the polity but the Nigerian state is complex. We are making progress though we deserve to be better, you guys just acknowledge the stalk reality. God Bless You! |
