Ebenezar2020:bro stop using the nail to hit the hammer rather use the hammer to hit the nail, this has nothing to do with hustle hard or living in a bush and we are not talking of lopsided development but comprehensive, the OP said NIGERIA not a particular town or urban area, why do you guyz always act like this. Someone raised an important national issue for us to ponder on & profer possible solution, you automatically wants to make him feel bad that he is not living in one place you claim you have light 24hrs and they do take it to for 20mins sometimes ...I wonder how is that 24hrs if you take away 20mins.. Don't we have developed nations that also have rural areas and don't they have light there and must everybody stay in Beverly hills, is he not a citizen of Nigeria irrespective of where he is staying and entitled to basic amenities that he is even paying for. With all the cash thrown into that project and yet nothing to show for it does it not call for concern Plz let's put the horse before the cart and not the other way round, I get easily pissed when adults talk like children that's if you are one though Am out no Beef. 12 Likes

ALAGOGO007: Our electricity challenge is a structural challenge not an infrastructural one, we have treated it for long as an infrastructure challenge when in reality it has always been a structural problem, that is why no matter the amount of money spent the challenge hasn't been fixed. We can't generate electricity in akwa ibom and send it to Kano, that doesn't make any sense, the points of failure are too much, that's why the infrastructure keeps on collapsing. Secondly electricity is the second card used by the political class to control the poor, the first being fuel subsidy. The solution is simply decentralised the power industry, every state should generate and distribute its own electricity, or better still let it be done geopolitically. States that feel that their citizens are too poor can subsidize electricity for their people. Nobody will tell any politician to give his people electricity, if he doesn't he looses control, and the people will come after him. 3 Likes |

Yes I have experienced 24 hours light in Nigeria, Magodo Brooks estate to be precise. I spent close to four days there and they did not blink the light, not even for a second. I think Magodo residents signed a deal with PHCN for 24hrs uninterrupted electricity. The AC turned the room to ice block and the bed became unfit to sleep on lol. E sweet die trust me 1 Like |

EcoBrick:No! The total electricity power generation capacity we have is 6GW. We generate an average of 3GW. We need at least 15GW of electricity to cover the federation. We need 30GW to start industrialization. So, how would 3GW distributed to Magodo and Omole because they pay higher tariff. Our problem is inadequate generation! |

Sadly the answer is no... barring some drastic changes in the way we as a people choose to be governed, and start to elect leaders who really know and have what it takes to lead(not rule) |

BabaOwen: Baba, see it's not about budget size; all we need to do is live according to our means ie no wasteful spending up and down - problem solved. Just go and study what has been happening in Rwanda in the last 5 years or so. For power to be fixed in Nigeria is simple. Decentralize it. Let each region or state fend for itself and give them at least 10 years. Most will stumble in the beginning but would eventually catch up. The system we're running in Nigeria is ineffective, wasteful and unproductive. The FG wants to control everything politically even though it lacks capacity financially and mentally. Same thing in rail system, policing, mineral resources. Look at all the countries of the world, which among them is using this kind of formulae? Example, let's say Cross River state is able to generate stable power for its state alone, it should be left to do that but under the current system, that power must go into national grid to feed other state like Kano, Rivers, Ondo etc. Tell me, will any of the 3 states have stable power? To drive my point home, some states are not even producing at all. So now you see? The problem is primarily based on suspicion and fear by some region that others might develop and leave them behind but it doesn't have to be so. The govt is essentially lazy, lacks vision and want to continue to do lip-service while feeding fat on oil money. 4 Likes |

alexola20: You're still not getting the point, you can't use politics to solve problem of economics. Why blame OBJ alone, was Buhari too not a former president? Until we truely understand what the problem is, we'll just be passing blame on others and nothing will happen. Edited: I've suggested my humble possible solution to the problem. //few comments above// 3 Likes |
