I don't need to tell you the bad experience you and I are going through in Nigeria when Nepa situation, sorry i mean PHCN situation is concerned. It's even got to the stage that Government don't know what to do to solve the problem. In fact there are so many alternatives to PHCN power supply. However, the only alternative that you and I know continue to make money for the suppliers of such business. it has even come to the stage that one has started thinking along the line of some people who believe that Fed Govt is doing politics with power supply. This class of people believes that if govt is being sincere with nepa situation we could have got solution to the problem. They believe that some power brokers are making cool money from the business of selling mechanical generator that you and I know like the back of our hand.

However, the question that continue to border my mind is that is mechanical generator the best alternative to power problem in Nigeria considering the disturbing noise it always generates, the cost of fueling,and servicing it.

a tired no!

Electrical power can be generated by an ingenious  contraption consisting of a palm-wine tapper's bicycle with the back tire removed from the wheel rim, and replaced with a fan belt which in turn is connected to rotate a 20KVA alternator.

Members of the household can then take turns peddling the bike while those who are "off duty" can watch TV and sit in front of the air-conditioner and fan to cool off in preparation for their own rotating shift peddling the domestic power station.  The beauty of this set-up is that the bicycle can quickly be re-configured into a road-worthy and fuel efficient means of transport for the whole family whenever Nigeria experiences fuel shortages. 

With widespread adoption this new technology by Nigerian households, diesel and petrol generators would inevitably become obsolete and stigmatized as crutches for the weak physically infirm dregs of society.

LOL  @Jakumo you sound grumpy, abi is it your turn to pedal in your house? Enjoy your "shift" and remember your want to keep a good rythm going so that your feet don't get tired too soon.

Jakumo, I'm highly surprised that there are people like you in this forum who have
time for meaningless post where everybody in the forum is trying to share valuable
information. My advice is this: if you have nothing serious to write keep your rubbish
to yourself.
