PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by bolaoni(m): 7:50am On Mar 23, 2007
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. embarassed embarassed

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? embarassed embarassed embarassed

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?)

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
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by bolaoni(m): 8:38am On Mar 23, 2007
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

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

I guess they are practising what the Ijebus have taught them, tight-fistedness grin
lol
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by Razorr(f): 8:41am On Mar 23, 2007
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
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by brownbaby(f): 8:52am On Mar 23, 2007
How they want to effect that is what i dont know.

Afterall they wont start checking each household,

sure some pple will turn deaf hear to that instruction.

trust nigerians. cheesy
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by bolaoni(m): 8:54am On Mar 23, 2007
Does it mean that the stadium was built without a generator being in place?

This is serious o! Naija sha.

@Fkseun, take am easy o. Our admin is an Ijebu Man o. grin
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by Razorr(f): 8:55am On Mar 23, 2007
@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!
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by 9ja4eva: 9:08am On Mar 23, 2007
All dese PDP States sef?Dey mind send MOPOL from house to house.Dts thrash cos people will want to watch the match.
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by bolaoni(m): 9:14am On Mar 23, 2007
Razoor,

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

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

@9ja, 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?

I am they are not that stupid, but this is Naija, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by viee(f): 9:16am On Mar 23, 2007
can u beat dat? but den as naijaz, little things lik that hardly suprise us.infact nutin suprises us anyway.@fkseun
very funny!
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by Razorr(f): 9:17am On Mar 23, 2007
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.
Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by 9ja4eva: 9:19am On Mar 23, 2007
Why did dey say dey were ready to host d match den?Kai so d German go c us finish be dt?I tink its best dey do something asap cos cutting residents off wldnt be nice.Na wa oh.8 years wasted.

Re: PHCN Begs Abeokuta Residents To Switch Off Appliances During Eagles Match by Razorr(f): 9:53am On Mar 23, 2007
Exactly. What does the stadium need power for, anyway? grin grin grin

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