Of course, we don't understand the benefits of having your children hungry at home while you do "Father Christmas" with the remaining scarce resources you have.

Wisdom indeed

Why do you tend to hate seeing things positively?, It is bad for your mental health. Be optimistic.

I am actually very very optimistic of the culmination of stupidity exhibited by this set of people who manage the resources of this nation.

On a serious note, what do you expect me to feel. I live in Gwagwalada, I have electricity a maximum of 3 time a week and each one not exceeding 6hours. Now what tenneable excuse would suffice that there is wisdom in giving my electricity power to another country while I wait for Siemens to conclude there work in 2039?

I am indeed very optimistic...I am positively looking forward to 2039 for everyday electric power supply to my residence

So it is actually true that ,YOU CAN GIVE WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE

I understand what you're trying to say, Im not saying you're wrong.

But have faith in God that the future will be better, you will be rewarded for that. I am sorry that we have bad leaders, but I have faith that Nigeria will become better, Insha Allah.

Brother, instead of us to blame and condemn, why don't we pray. Nothing has power over God, and only God can give power.

In any situation, have faith in God, and say Alhamdulilah ( praises be to God ).

I understand you. Yes we can pray but silence sometimes means agreement with the evil system.

Nigeria will be great only after God removes the evil virus that plague us and our leadership. It's all about the god of money: once it speaks our leaders bow good judgement, justice, fairness and righteousness!
I don't know how much Niger has paid somebody with authority

FULANIZATION is on course.

Federal government has taken chinese loans to draw railway lines to Maradi, Niger republic.

Now they are drawing our scarce electricity to Chad republic.

They are also working on the Water resources bill.

Yes, we have to pray for them to change!, But power has limit, death time is uncertain, the president can fall and die at anytime.


But one thing we should know is that it is Only our government that can help us sincerely. We should pray, obey and comply. And insha Allah we will start seeing changes.

our problem in this country is that everyone thinks he is right, no one will admit being wrong. What happens when two opposite forces collide?, Friction!, Damage will occur, but when things are elastic and not rigid, we tend to move accordingly and movements will go well.


����, Alhamdulilah, anyways, I really love my country.

Those who love this country are praying for her good. But the country is in the hands of evil selfish people. Out prayers should include that God removes them from power and that God brings lovers of good and righteousness to govern us. As per those in charge now, we know them: they are beyond redemption!

Coronabirus:
It's pity u dnt understand the reason behind this connection. Nigeria is using River Niger to generate power in kainji which has its source from other countries, they'll not construct dam for irrigation to avoid obstructing the generation and part of the then deal is to connect those countries with the power generated.
Please use current Egypt-Ethiopia tension which may escalate to war; Egypt is using Nile River for irrigation and has the largest irrigation system in the world, now Ethiopia is constructing dam which may hinder Egypt's irrigation system and they're already at cold war.
Many educated Nigerians have zero knowledge of governance and international relations that's why we always embarass ourselves in our comments including the well educated ones.

blacknp:


The Niger River is shared by nine countries in West and Central Africa, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea, Mali, Niger, and Nigeria, Nigeria is obligated to provide those Countries that request electricity at international standard price, so that they don’t dam the River Niger again for electricity & irrigation, Egypt is presently having a problem with Ethiopia for it building a dam on the River Nile.

Providing power doesn't stop them from building dams upstream if they want to. Niger Republic is constructing Kandadji Dam. Do you guys know why Nigeria hasnt said anything about it?

fineboynl:
buhari is already preparing for war against Nigerian oh,. making amend and pleasing the neighbors, train connecting to Nigeria and Chad, he really have a bad advisers. all of a sudden the West Africans have paid Nigeria their electricity debt and now magically they are generating 13,000 megawatts of electricity to supply Chad.

This is a moment to write I am tired of this PMB Administration, infact the Nigeria Govt.

Well said, arguable there must have been an agreement as pointed out by you.

According to your map, the R.Niger doesn't pass through Cameroun rather flow into the sea.

But, how is Cameroun also a beneficiary?

Cameroon shouldnt be included the river niger doesn't flow there. Besides wouldnt tyey be exporting power to Nigeria.

the sensible one, spotted !!!
Nairaland is now full of dimwits !!!

I swear bro, one thing I have noticed is people just want to complain before reasoning. So far it is BUHARI government it is negative.

That is why we are talking of regional government or resource control. We don't have electricity to start our business but giving it free to a brotherly nation. Our MUMU don reach

Topmaike007:
we get enough power supply na distribution channel we no get

Shey nepa light dey your area right now

Cos for my side, we only enjoy electricity for 4hours in a day (24hours)

Even for my hometown Afikpo North light no dey for almost 4-5 months now oo.. Even I run commot dia when I go there for Burial early this month

In sane countries the government cannot unilaterally take such actions without the approval of its citizens via the legislature because this has far reaching, multi-faceted consequences for years, decades and perhaps generations to come. Such a decision cannot be left effectively to one man, perhaps acting impulsively.

We have seen the effects of indiscriminate signing of thought less contracts and agreements with foreign companies, institutions and nations. We as a people should be part of this and should debate it properly to prise out the facts and fine prints and expose any shady dealing so that if it goes sour in the future we can say we were part of the decision and so will collectively bear the consequences.

That is how qualitative nations run.

This people don come again. Which debt are they paying with light wey we no get?
That's how one day they will connect China to Niger Delta oil.

Until we start to make these people accountable for their deeds, they won't stop to mess with us.

Only in Nigeria

And you don't know that PDP sold distribution rights to the Discos we have scattered all over.

Until Nigeria succeeds in reclaiming those rights back as Buhari attempted not too long ago, we go nowhere.

Sebi una say PDP good. Well, don't get me wrong I am not even APC.

So called president buhari is gradually preparing to go back home...

Hmmmmn... na wa oh

Much of Nigeria's generated electricity remain unused because the country is not able to distribute it as a result of poor transmission and distribution network, which has prompted it to sell to neighbouring countries.
