Wizkid Reacts To Bill To Ban Import And Use Of Generator In Nigeria by SaviMedia: 4:37pm On Mar 13, 2020
Popular Nigerian/International artiste, Wizkid aka StarBoy has reacted to the bill proposing 10 years jail term for generator importers and sellers in Nigeria.

The bill which has passed the first reading in the Senate, christened ‘A Bill for an Act to prohibit/ban the importation/use of generating sets to curb the menace of environmental (air) pollution and to facilitate the development of power sector’ was sponsored by Senator Enagi Bima (APC-Niger).

According to the bill, “Any person who imports generating sets; or knowingly sells generating sets shall be guilty of an offence and be liable on conviction to be sentenced to imprisonment for a term not less than 10 years.

“Provided that this subsection shall not apply to the importation or sale of any generating set to be used for essential services.”

The ban, however, excluded essential services.

The bill added, “The ban or prohibition of generating sets shall not include generating sets used for essential services which include Medical purposes (hospitals and nursing homes and healthcare facilities), airports, railway stations/services, elevators (lifts), escalators, research Institutions, and such facilities that require 24 hours electric power supply.”

While Nigerians has condemned the bill on several social media platforms, Wizkid has voiced his mind and made his view known on why such bill should be trash because of wrong timing.

Taken to his twitter handle, Wizkid, urged the lawmakers to ensure there is 24hrs steady power supply before proposing such bill.

He wrote...

"Fucking dick heads! Give us 24hr electricity first"

"Misplaced priorities".

Our quick and visceral judgment in situations, I consider weakness in humans.
That is, rather than engage arguments intellectually, we let our feelings get in the way.

The senator who proposed the bill apparently had his tongue in his cheek. It's a humor that's also a subtle reminder to the Government that the Electricity sector has to be fixed.
The senator can't deny that he doesn't use generator sets in his houses, offices. Even the President uses generator.
Can the senator then place an arrest bounty on his own head?

hehehe


Pick a leader who will keep jobs in your country by offering companies incentives to hire only within their borders, not one who allows corporations to outsource jobs for cheaper labor when there is a national employment crisis. Choose a leader who will invest in building bridges, not walls. Books, not weapons. Morality, not corruption. Intellectualism and wisdom, not ignorance. Stability, not fear and terror. Peace, not chaos. Love, not hate. Convergence, not segregation. Tolerance, not discrimination. Fairness, not hypocrisy. Substance, not superficiality. Character, not immaturity. Transparency, not secrecy. Justice, not lawlessness. Environmental improvement and preservation, not destruction. Truth, not lies.

Apshit cow govt is a shame
