I knew this country is rotten from the core. Thank God I didn't make the mistake of thinking that things are getting better Even when we were experiencing relatively stable light recently. I knew it was just a mirage, a false reality, that deep down, the reality of things is that everything is just rotten. Since buhari of all people can lie to us like this, I promise myself not to ever attend any political rally or even vote, it's just really a complete waste of one's time and energy if you really think about it. Never believe any politician, they are all the same. They will all come with sweet promises and fail woefully to deliver those promises. My message to all who care to listen is to get out of this mess good for nothing country while you still can. It will never really be better. Get out and enjoy the best of what life has to offer. Get out and experience what it feels like to live with true 24/7 light, true unlimited broadband internet, true constant running pipe borne public water supply, true quality education and healthcare. Damn we are really missing alot in this country, we really are been lied to alot. I wonder if am the only one seeing hopelessness all around this country. Youths without jobs, public infrastructure decay, extremely disorganized society, insecurity, etc 4 Likes |

System collapse but by the time they would send electricity bills, one would wonder if he has a factory somewhere in his bedroom! Since 1999 of Democracy till date, with numerous Ministers, expatriates and plenty billions of dollars spent, there has been nothing to be happy about. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Witchersunited: Doesn't take 10 years to fix. More like 4 years but the problem isn't the money to fix it. The problem is the guarantees on returns on investment. We did better with zero infrastructure in the GSM sector and built up a non existent infrastructure in years. That worked because there was guarantees on returns. The power sector can't achieve that because it requires a functional society not the zoo we are in. Most Nigerians believe free electricity is a birth right forgetting Electricity is a commodity that is traded. For a start the N21/kwh we are paying is absolutely horrible and unsustainable for big businesses to invest in the power sector. Secondly there are a million houses and government agencies owing thousands of Naira in fees that DISCOs can't even reach or try disconnecting. You know why MTN paras when there is a free data cheat? Because it is a huge loss of revenue for them if it is left unchecked and they would go bankrupt because of that. Forget people shouting prepaid meters. Some Nigerians are greedy lots and they would try and game the system. A private firm cannot police every single house and sadly the Govt legislation is poor as regards such thefts. Sadly those people are in the majority and there's no way any sane investor would put money into such a biz. For GSM I could remotely turn off your call function if you can't pay but for electricity, except you are physically present to take control of such which brings in the elements of enforcement and trust which is non existent in the Nigerian environment. Exactly why NITEL also never succeeded and water or gas lines aren't functional in Nigeria. 2 Likes |
