Again where will the power to charge these busses come from, 280km per full charge, is it with traffic or without traffic. Will these fare better than gas powered and diesel powered buses in the long term 71 Likes 4 Shares |

Hope it will start working? Or will it end up like the Blue Line Rail that Buhari commissioned since December but not a single Lagosian has been conveyed in it since after the inauguration? Scammers and druggies in government 😏. 29 Likes 6 Shares |

lexylaw40: Yeah, higher debts in spite of huge revenue growth with no matching increases in employment for government services, utilities etc? By what percentage has teachers and children enrolment increased since 1999? And water supply? No wonder Lagos is a quintessential shithole among global cities. No wonder. BTW, when is the light rail going to start working 24 years of sakamanje promises and propaganda but nothing to show. itubaba001: oshozondii: 4 Likes 5 Shares |

Low self esteem is really a bad thing. See an African country that should leverage on its comparative economic advantage of fossil fuel natural resources trying to impress Western imperialists who have built and still operating their industrialisation on fossil fuels. Even in the west where electricity is stable and abundant, electric vehicles are still not widely deployed because of the cost disadvantage. You can see the harsh economic squeeze they faced when fossil energy prices soared. Let alone an African country still struggling with even basic electricity. There is no such thing as "clean energy". What we have are various energy sources, with various nations racing to leverage on which sources they have a comparative cost advantage. 12 Likes 2 Shares |
