Truth hurts my brother. But it must be told. PDP and Obasanjo especially wasted our 16 good years. just as he said, you can imagine if we had started anything meaningful in the power sector since that time, we would have been far better developed. I am convinced that before the close of buhari's second term almost all the federal institutions in the country would have sufficient power to use.

Really sad that the average Nigerian youth is so narrow-minded and cheap thinking. It's safe to conclude that given the opportunity as a leader to execute this kind of project or even offer any meaningful solution, you won't be able to because of self-induced pessimism, cynism and lack of vision.

The current not so great old leaders are definitely better than the average Nigerian youths.

Monjerk:
Good initiative.
But why would a president be commissioning 1MW plant. Don't they have local government chairman or house of representative person in their mist.

Skmoda360:
What about maintenance ?

b0rn2fuck:
Solar will eventually rescue nigerians from phcn, even startime bringing in their solar system in july. Phcn must get sense

God bless you for this honest and mature response to one the people that negativity concerning any positive news towards their nation is their joy!

It is always good and refreshing to know that we still have some reasonable people like you around here.
God bless you sir.

Are you new on nairaland?

If you are not, it should not take more than two threads to know they are worse than the leaders they hate with passion.

The point is, topics like this are not their best field for comment.

Talk about Regina Daniels and Tonto Dike or Naira Marley now and you will see the best of them.

On MTN shares performance on an earlier thread, somebody said that since the share price is going up and they are making more profit, He/She hopea they will reduce data price!. I almost cried.

Skmoda360:

Abeg leave matter joor.....is there anything like maintenance culture in Nigeria? Answer that question....

Nigeria currently has 43 Federal Universities. Not counting Polytechnics, Hospitals and other Federal Institutions. Plan is to use the same model on all of them eventually.
FG started with major markets like Ariara etc and it is spreading to other sectors.
Can you imagine if we have started this journey that we embark on now since 1999. Imagine where we will be now? Kudos to the Buhari administration.

All this is grammar. What that person just posted is the fact. Besides when you supply me power, your only concern should be that I pay for what I use. How I use it is non of your business. There's nothing wrong in using it to cook whatever, if your system can't take the load, increase the capacity or ration it. It is shameful that in this age and time we're celebrating a mere 1MW. 1MW won't even power my estate for one week end

plaindealer:



Experience from cooking beans at home with 1MW power supply? Are you serious or you are just pretending not to be smart?

They produced an uninterrupted power supply for students to use academically and enjoy a better quality of life while studying even including cooking food to eat and all you are obsessed with is student cooking beans.

The only thing some of you are good at is criticism. I hope and pray that in future they don't put people like you in charge of anything because preoccupation with students cooking beans won't let you do anything.

I know your type, you have a can't do spirit and all you do is criticize everything based on silly and lazy excuses.

U made good points but when dealing wit issues, deal with it very well from the root.

Poverty is the cause of the issue u raised. Many students don't have money for gas. There are no jobs for students to do as part time.

Many families are earning less than 30k per month. When u dated my wife, when she was schooling, her parent only gave her 5k per month as pocket money. My goodness. What is 5k?

5k that has not bought average size internet data that was what they were giving a girl. It was when I came into her life that I increased her pocket money to at least something manageable. So tell me, if someone like that who gets 5k as pocket money in school sees opportunity to use electric plate to cook, u think she won't?

It was then I knew many other families do send their kids to school without any monthly upkeep. I was like wtf.

My brother, many people know the right things but poverty has made many to think upside down.

Govt seriously need to cut down on cost of running govt and pay them selves in order to increase the money that goes to the workers, especially civil servants.

Govt needs to create massive job opportunities for SSCE, uni students and graduates. The work in this country is large.

That is why when people say Nigerians need to pay high to get quality education, I always remind them that more than half of the population is poor.

The purchasing power in nigeria is poor. Very poor. In fact, if u remove Yahoo Yahoo money, which money remain among the mere citizens who are not connected to political power?

You make dumb people look smart, how many people on average, inclusive of squatters do you think live in a government hostels in school?

I went to UNIBEN, then they were just 6 hostels minus 2 medical hostel buildings unlike now when they are more than 10 hostels minus 2 medical hostels I never lived in one but I remember the way the light used to look like low current when school is in session and how it used to look like bulbs want to blow up, when students leave the hostels, why?

The answer is seen from afar, or shall I say smelt. If you are going to Hall 4 from SRC building you can smell beans, the cheapest thing to cook - just add salt and #20 palm oil - on top of Hot plate and you are good to go, them no need to paste am.....

Imagine an average of anywhere between 2,000 to 6000 people (in over 12 hostels now that they have new hostels) - that doesnt include those who might do same in places like Senior or Junior staff quarters or block of flats - all plugged in via hot plate to the battery cells that make up that power plant........

What is the life expectancy of those battery cells. And what in your experience about solar power plants, mounted in a place like bayelsa - Not Sokoto, not the sahara desert, bayelsa - tells you that power stored in a battery cells via a solar plant will be uninterrupted all year round?


Anyway, when someone who went to school is talking from his practical experience, just humble yourself by learning or a simple "why do you think so?" will improve your learning curve........


Olodo smart people detector

CodeTemplar:
Stop overreacting. The guy stated the obvious and what he said doesn't in anyway mean he opposes building of such power unit but means he is concerned about what most of the power may be wasted on.

Are you suggesting your home isn't well maintained?

Go and ask buhari now....rubbish

He told me it isn't.

Little wonder.
