China has good technology. It all depends on the specification you give them. If you want to cut down on quality, what's their business?

Must we always call on these foreigners to execute major infrastructural contracts when we have graduates in such field in this country..

Instead of wasting excess money on foreign firm, why not upgrade our institutions too and employ these foreign lecturers to teach us what it needs to be an expatriate in one's chosen field , so u won't need to be flown out of the country before u can get a good health care...

[size=15pt]Nigeria, when will u start entrusting such huge projects to your institution graduates... embarassed [/size]

u mean those graduates that did copy and paste to get through the academic system like Jonathan?

Relax, we are not there yet. U can't expect them to give such a huge and sensitive contract to a local company. We can't even build an engine in this country yet (Most of Innoson parts are imported from China). And we all know how roads and buildings constructed by local contractors compare with the ones executed by foreign companies. Even in advanced countries, they give contracts to foreign firms with better experience and equipment than local firms.

A good example is the Apple which is a USA company. The Iphone 6 camera has Sony (A Japanese company) sensors and LG (Japanese) display. Also the phone was assembled in China. It is not a crime to give contracts to foreign companies especially when u know they will do a better job than the locals.

U are asking for such huge contract to be given to graduates? U mean those that barely know theory and little to nothing about practicals? I'm a graduate of science and I can tell u our technical schools are nothing to write home about. We pay too much attention to theory and very little to practicals. In reality, theory ends in school while practicals is what u take out there.

I support your comment; that is how it is done in many developed country. I have being thinking the same as the best solution to solve Nigeria's power problem. In addition to that, many energy production company should be licensed to build power plant, generate the power, and sell it to distributors - grid. If that could happened, Nigeria would generate energy more than needed, there would be competition in energy cost to distributors, and energy cost will as well fall just like cell phone service cost.

What you have described is what I believe was the intention behind the privatization of PHCN.

We shall see how it pans out over the coming years.

SONY ELECTRONICS NIGERIA "Paid to Drive"

* MAKE MONEY BY SIMPLY DRIVING YOUR CAR
* ADVERTISERS WANTED FOR SONY ELECTRONICS NIGERIA
* EARN NO LESS THAN N25,000 WEEKLY TO ADVERTISE ON YOUR CAR.
* It is Very Easy and Simple,

How it works
Here's the basic premise of the "Get paid to drive" concept:
SONY ELECTRONICS seeks people -- regular citizens, not professional
drivers -- to go about their normal routine as they usually do, only
with an advert for "SONY ELECTRONICS" plastered on your car. The
ads are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps," that
almost seem to be painted on the vehicle but can pilled-off at the end of the program, and which will cover any
portion of your car's exterior surface.


What does the company get out of this type of ad strategy? Lots of
exposure and awareness.The auto wraps tend to be colorful and
eye-catching and attract lots of attention. Plus, it's a form of
advertising with a captive audience, meaning people who are stuck in
traffic and can't avoid seeing the wrapped car alongside them. This
program will last for 3 months and the minimum period you can
participate is 1 month.


You will be compensated with N25,000/week (twenty five thousand naira per Week),
which is essentially a "rental" payment for letting our company use
the exterior space of your vehicle. SONY ELECTRONICS shall provide experts that would handle the
advert placing on your car, when your application is approved.
