See this ones... they are using blue lines so they don't face any shortage na why dem dey talk about it being free. Abeg let them first compel the FG nd the distribution companies to steady the electricity for us first before we talk about it being free. If they can steady the power most wouldn't bother be it free , paid, loan/debt... we just want light abeg. |

Anything that involves the government cheating or making life hard for citizens is implemented immediately.. But if it comes to giving back something to its citizens, its always one delay, argument or the other.. In fact, the government will sometime even deny that they promised anything. I never see a wicked, soulless, lifeless government like this one. |

Imustsurvive: You can! Nothing free is truly free. If the Reps are actually serious about what they are saying then the govt should pay for it to be free for Nigerians for the stipulated time. But we all know what AUDIO pronouncements are in this country All this na show. 2 Likes 1 Share |

LibertyRep: Anytime i see this type of topic my heart bleeds. Abeg which free electricity? do they even provide electricity in the first place? or maybe im the one getting it twisted. It is like promising to give your Babe a treat with money you don't even have. The worst-case scenario is for them to put everybody in darkness as usual and not bring bills for 3 months unlike now that they bill us without supplying any electricity. 1 Like |

Ignorant lawmaker! Actually its just a resolution by the House and its not binding on the President. However, instead of shouting on the media while scoring cheap political points, the lawmakers should sit, think and liaise with the FG and the NESI players. 1. Who r the customers u want to give free light? 2. Will the big customers benefit from this largesse or not? 3. The energy requirements of most big industries are more than all residential consumers. Are we gonna gv these industries free light too? 4. What are the modalities for payments by the FG? Are they gonna be covering the invoices in full (even if they can waive TCN's share)? Or FG is gonna pay according to current percentages each Disco remit to the NESI? The craziest part is that the same FG just mandated the Discos to remit 100% of their invoices back to NBET. Actually the Minister is right. No be by mouth online else u gv free power to the mostly the rich who can afford to pay n less to the poor who really cant! 1 Like |

COMPAQ: I use prepaid meter. Initially I consume #2500 monthly, which some around me think it's on the high side. I now consume 4k worth of power. I have a small freezer(which is on 7pm-7am), one TV which no one has time for, two fans, 5 (5watts) energy saving bulbs and I pump water once a week into my small thank. BTW , I used to consume more power before lockdown. My freezer worked 24/7, my ac worked when heat gets unbearable, I pumped water 2-3 times a week and my son would stay glued to Disney junior. |

Ebonyeyes:I bet some think electricity is stored away in some vault somewhere. Just open and distribute it because some stupid Rep said so. If we were serious, we'd be burning the Reps houses down till they pay the electric companies to give us electricity. But no. They'd rather treat the electric company like it was still government owned or they live in a socialist society! 1 Like |

The house of reps members should go and sit down somewhere jare..If they give it out for free, how will they make money considering that it’s a business?. Someone has to pay for the free electricity, and if the government is not ready to pay, they should shut up and stop giving people false hope..we no be mumu. 2 Likes 1 Share |
