Yet more unintelligible gibberish... grin

Nigeria can proverbially chew gum and walk at the same time...
Earning forex from electricity exports is NOT mutually-exclusive with supplying power to Nigerians. SMH
>

I didn't claim it is mutually exclusive liar. Are You attacking strawman arguements because your previous lies got boring? I didnt say Nigeria shouldn't export power to countries keeping to the agreements you mentioned. Niger Republic does so the country under no obligation to supply them like you claimed.

I said it's more beneficial to supply Nigerians more power. The excuses you gave are dont cut it. It's the Nigerian government that choose to sell power at low prices domestically. Its no different from what they did in the fuel market. They just have adjust the policies.

Now lets hear your new excuses.

I can edit my post. You cant refute my facts. Again tag everyone in the thread so everyone can hear your lies. Your hard currency excuse doesn't cut it either. Nigeria could benefit more simply supplying power to Nigerians.

Before you repost more unintelligible gibberish...
As we have now understood your limited capacity for basic comprehension.

Nigeria reportedly has a nominal (theoretical) installed generation capacity of 13.5K MW of on-grid power, but it only have a generating capacity of about 7K MW of readily-evacuatable on-grid power. Further, Nigeria reportedly has a nominal transmission capacity of about 5-6K MW of on-grid power but has on average only been able to transmit in the region of 3-4K MW of power. Meanwhile, the DISCOs are usually able to take on average about 2-3K MW (the highest-ever reportedly being about 4K) from the transmission company (TCN). Accordingly, SELLING power to our neighbors is not why we do not have enough to go around domestically.

But know what we need to invest in needed generation, transmission and distribution upgrade badly needed in Nigeria: HARD CURRENCY!

The tiny amounts of hard currency you're salivating over from these nations wont achieve your goal. If Nigeria stop wasting cash on fuel subsidy and defending currency with billions of dollars in hard currency it would achieve the same result. Supplying power to Nigerians wont stop Nigeria from achieving goal. As we agree Nigeria can walk and chew gum.

I must have a lot of spare time today, because I am here actually attempting to enlighten someone who actually think that a country that cannot domestically distribute all of the electricity it generates and transmits would be better off just adding to its so-called “stranded” electricity (that us, generable power that is not evacuated or distributed) rather than exporting some and earning even if small amounts of valuable forex.

Too many Nigerians have never had to earn an honest living. undecided

That’s about $130 million from Benin Rep and Niger in 2018 (excluding Togo).

Lol you dont know these exports are pennies compared to other things Nigeria exports? In Niger Republics case it's less than tobacco. These exports to chump change Nigeria gets with other non oil exports. If Nigeria stopped wasting billions your ideas would be implemented faster. This walking over dollars to pick up pennies.

Zamfara is the poorest state with the smallest economy. I don't know how zamfara provides to Federation account.

Your own chart shows that electricity exports just to one country is the third-largest export item to that country...
But you’d rather we keep that electricity “stranded” (since we cannot distribute it), because you don’t know the value of an honest dollar? SMH

Niger Republic is tiny fraction of overall trade even within Africa. Lol your dancing over few pennies you get from them really? Dont assume I your lame family that doesn't know the value of a dollar. The charts show it's pretty insignificant overall.

Didnt say you cant export power. It would be more beneficial to sell it domestically.

The key word here is "service to be paid for", when people offer you their services it is only natural you pay. But we pay for electricity services we don't get to enjoy, Understand me now? To put it in a better perspective for you, I get six hours of light in a day out of 24 hours. 8am-11am when i am not at home and 2am-5am in the morning when i am sleeping, i only get to use this light during weekends when i am at home and even as poor as the light schedule is, they don't keep to it and yet i pay every month for this same abysmal service, if i don't pay my light gets disconnected.
9jaRealist:


It is NOT a “service”...
But an economic GOOD that costs lots of money to generate, transmit and distribute.

Until Nigerians quit seeing electricity as something owed to them and start paying for it, we will remain doomed to darkness...
Irony is that folks who do not want to pay cost-reflective tariffs to DISCOs will freely spend LOTS MORE money on gens and diesel. Penny wise.
