JohnNgene:
Well, the electric cars revolution is coming.

omenkaLives:
Little wonder Bruce Lee behaves like a Neanderthal.

Senator Ben Murray-Bruce has accused his colleagues in the Senate of rejecting technological advancements, which he considers as a confirmation they are still living in the Stone Age.

The senator representing Bayelsa east, said Nigeria has become the laughing stock in the world because of the “inability of senators to function in the 21st century”.
A good thought from Ben Bruce.
However, the maturity of Electrical cars and charging stations depends on “electricity”.
If we can channel this energy to fight the forces that have kept this country in perpetual darkness and dependence on generating sets, I think electrical cars, charging stations and associated technologies can easily be sorted.
While speaking with BBC Pidgin, Bruce accused his colleagues of heading towards the opposite direction for rejecting a bill he sponsored on electric cars.

He said:

“Nigeria is really the laughing stock of the world because of my colleagues who cannot function in the 21st century,”

“An electric car is very efficient. Towards your driving, it tells you how many miles you have left. Full charge, about a hundred miles. You see how simple it is? But my colleagues in the senate, who are in the stone age do not understand this.

“Our politicians are moving in the opposite direction. Whether they like it or not, the world will move towards electrical cars. That is the way of the future. Combusting engine cars are inefficient, they kill people. Today, nobody in his right mind will build a factory to make combusting engine cars.

“We will end up being the dumping ground of the world because the world is moving in one direction, the Nigerian senate is moving in the opposite direction. You replace your petrol station with solar powered charging stations. Anytime you wanted to charge your car, you go to the gas station, and you charge your super charge 30 minutes, you get a hundred miles of charge. How many people drive a hundred miles, one (hundred and) fifty kilometers a day?

“Nigeria spends over a trillion naira every year subsidizing petrol. If they listen to me, they will be cautious what we have and what we can benefit from this technology. If they don’t, they will be left behind and Nigeria will be a third world country forever. So they have a choice. Either way, I win, they lose.”

omoadeleye:
Your colleagues are not dumb or technical illiterate, they are just trying to form clueless because most of them are relying on the oil money, bringing in electric cars will make oil revenue to their pockets fall.

Lanretoye:
he won't say this at the chambers...useless senator,as if he is living in bread age.

mbos:




Ben Bruce is trying to tell Nigerians that by 2035 there will be no big oil money again, but most Nigerians failed to understand him.

Nigeria is in a very big trouble, by 2035, most car manufacturing companies most have stopped manufacturing of petrol powered cars and most refineries in the world most have closed shop.

Electric cars took centre stage in almost all auto shows around the world in 2018.

Many of you do not realize your country is seriously in dire need of a violent shift. The leadership of Nigeria represents the average intelligence of the larger population. Tragedy of it all is the minimal sub optimal state of existence the highly perceptive and intelligent part of the population is subjected to, knowing fully well that there's more but have no option than to endure the simplistic decisions of the duller majority. What a depressing state to be in!

Zionista:
The largest concentration of educated illiterates are found in Nigeria. You find graduates with zero cognitive abilities, zero capacity to grasp, analyse and evaluate contemporary issues.

Informed minds will know that Ben Bruce is spot on .


It is so depressing sharing a geographical space with neanderthals.

Bizibi:
my Senator has done nothing only the one in house of reps.it is not about his business that employs people he is a senator and people would want to know what he has done as a senator.

Lanretoye:
he won't say this at the chambers...useless senator,as if he is living in bread age.

VULCAN:
You asked a question. You were given an answer and in your response you still asked the same question again.

I hope everything is OK with you??

tevinsolt:
Best believe the excuses as to why it couldn't be done, will fill the thread. Counter-intuitively Supporting the abysmal state of existence they already have.

Od1n:


You'd rather they use these funds for fake fuel subsidy? Same fuel you buy for N150 despite being a producing state. Later you will come out and say sun is too much. The ozone layer is near gone. Soonest, Fuel-based engines will become a thing of the past. Where will we be?

Bizibi:
some of us understand what the senator is saying but I don't trust them because they are known for saying something today then do the opposite later.

Wantedmiller:
Ben Bruce..... let us be sincere to ourselves. There are a lot of things hanging on our shoulders as Nigerians. Right now your electric car bill is not part of it..........Youths dey streets without jobs, People are dying on daily bases, the hospitals, the Roads, the poor are getting poorer etc.
This part of our world can't enjoy stable electricity?

Sen Ben........ World developed countries got their independence so many years ago.... they actually took care of human, made life worth living for them before your yeye Electric car.

rusher14:
Ben Bruce is a dunce .

He acts as if he has invested in an electric car company the way he goes about it.

Nigeria does not need to follow the rest of the world into the world of electric vehicles.

We must make.the best of what we have and we'll grow organically.
