THIS GOVERNMENT WILL RANK AS THE WORST GOVERNMENT EVER- ELECTRICITY WISE
This Government does not seems to care even if Nigerians are dying. The state of electricity supplies in many area is too bad. In Oshodi (Lagos State) , NEPA issue seems to be more than equipment, the competence of the Personnel or Engineers at key postions is now in doubt, plus corruption! GOVERNMENT need to start allowing other organisations not Goverent owned to start producing and selling power to the public.
