I am excited to see the Federal Government's inauguration of solar-powered electric vehicle charging stations at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN). This visionary step resonates deeply with what I have passionately advocated for.

While my earnest attempts to champion such initiatives through legislation were met with resistance in the past, the winds of change have since gathered momentum. Today, we stand at a transformative crossroads, recognizing the imminent necessity of pivoting away from fossil fuels and embracing clean, renewable sources of energy. The forward-thinking leadership shown by the National Automative Design and Development Council (NADDC) is both commendable and essential for ensuring a sustainable future for Nigeria.

To see our esteemed educational institutions actively partaking in this change, not just as passive spectators but as beacons of innovation and research, warms the heart. I have always believed in the power of sustainable technology, and it is heartening to see these ideas coming to fruition.

I commend the Federal Government and all the visionaries involved in bringing this initiative to life. Indeed, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and today, Nigeria is taking giant strides in the right direction. It is my fervent hope that we continue to tread this path, drawing inspiration from today’s achievements and always striving for a brighter, greener tomorrow.

Times change, so do people.
Mr. Peter Obi once said that he wouldn't ever leave APGA but now you know the rest, Tinubu once said he didn't believe in one Nigeria but now the rest is history. Wike once said he can never dine with a cancerous party, now you know the rest.

Thanks Mr. Common sense for once championing this cause.

The kind of thing we celebrate in Nigeria is very shameful. Electric Charging area that when you drive 15-20 minutes on UK motorways you will find one and their people are not celebrating or talking about it.

How this one take relate to the topic kwanu

Stupid project by FG.

No government in western world has Charging stations.

Private investors are given license to operate in places. Companies have their charging stations. Gas stations sell spaces for people to charge in their building.

Government can't manage charging stations.

wrong priorities again

Do they allow private people/companies to do this?

It's better if they do.
