As soon as IMF instructed they follow... America subsidize healthcare, food, transportation, and pay their citizens social security payments, UK subsidize food, healthcare, transportation, social care...IMF didn't tell them to stop, even though America's debt is more than 20trillion dollars now.

What is the government giving back to Nigerians, as owners of this Commonwealth, what are Nigerians enjoying?

All the money Nigeria makes from subsidy removal, from expanded taxes... allocations to governors have increased, but the masses can't have anything.

Only local solutions will solve local issues, IMF is only concerned about collecting back it's loan. A government is not a company, the aim of a company is to make profits, the aim of a government is to take care of the people with national wealth, government take care of the people through welfare, subsides, direct payments etc...I don't understand this Tinubu administration at all. Electricity subsidy is one of the ways government impact small businesses and all Nigerians, if they can't power their small shops, or power their fan to sleep peacefully at night, they will turn to crime. Does this government really want to destroy Nigeria?

adioolayi:
Till we have stable electricity...

Subsidy must remain.

If we will be paying premium ...we should enjoy premium service ..

So, provide the premium service first, to justify premium payment.

Did they fix our refinery b4 removal of petrol subsidy

Shey best brain for electricity ni Bayo Adelabu


Hail Bayo Adelabu, second of his name, the Darkness Lord, to whom Light is a sin. He who sees power supply during harsh weather realities as an abomination.

Congregation: Hail Bayo x3. The Dark Lord, the anti-Light , Swallow and Destroy (NEPA) Light and give us Darkness Today.

IMF don put words for hin mouth ! Yeye person 😀

They're giving it to you people wotowoto! Food, light, Oil and gas etc Una must get sense! 8months never click ooh Continue teaching igbo people lesson and how to play polithieves.

FG will rather fry Nigerians in a frying pan called Nigeria.

Military, take over this government, freeze all accounts of politicians both foreign & local let us begin to recover as a nation, otherwise this country is GONE forever!

After running the economy u nutcases wany to remove all subsidy at thesame time?

creolehunt:
When it comes to things that benefit the masses, they remember that the country is broke.

When it favors them, they damn all consequences.

I pity their moronic praise singers blinded by religion and tribal foolery

The f*ol that's supporting them can't say anything on this...

To say we've not seen light for like 2hours in a day for 3 to 4 days and this people have mind to be saying this is really baffling

IrepChrist:
Nigeria needs leaders that can create wealth. People that can think outside the box. We have the potentials but we lack visionary leaders.

We pick the worst of us to lead us, we need visionaries, technocrats, philosophers as leaders, all we have are politicians.

Mad statement. Upon selling the discos to private companies and the prenial blackout all over, can a sane man be talking of increase in electricity bill? God's wrath will soon descend on these bunch of criminals.

nlfpmod:


Adelabu, addressed a press conference in Abuja on
Wednesday, said only 450 billion naira was
budgeted for subsidy this year but the ministry
needs over 2 trillion naira for subsidy.
He said state governments will now be allowed to
generate power independently to supply power to
their states.

Great that they're now considering full autonomy of power generation and supply. This won't just provide adequate, sustainable and uninterrupted power supply to many capable states of the federation thereby helping the productivity of those states economy but also be a huge source of IGR as well as the reduction in the rate of such states unemployment.
We'll definitely get there if we don't stop pushing for the right change.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA

GOD BLESS WESTERN NIGERIA TOO

WE RISE!

You just gave in to another deceit.

Can't blame me, I'm an optimist. provided it's a good move, I always hope it happens and works fine.

cucumbar:
Fool… how long will you continue doing this?

If your frustration at my innocent submission is what you termed wisdom, then it's either I need a new dictionary or you're having a dysfunctional brain. Jeez, what's wrong with the kids of nowadays？ No manners, no civil or objective response to an argument or opinion but insults, rants and hate. If you're such an ideal product of bad parenting or broken home, you can always train yourself in good societal engagement and approach. It won't kill you to act it sometimes if you don't have it too. Or are you contented projecting yourself this stvpid to everyone？

Westman001:


You are a big mumu.

You sound like a Yes man.

You are not optimistic, at all. You are just totally ignoramus. Your ignorance is so disturbing.

8-10 years ago I was more optimistic than you about the plight of this country. At a point you just have to see through the lies and manipulation and incompetence.

Would your optimistic mind agreed that Tinubu should have handle the removal of subsidy the way he did? Answer this.

That you have a frustrated and d@maged life doesn't mean each and everyone is going through the same rough patch with you. Learn to respect personal opinion and move on if it doesn't align with your belief. You honestly don't have to be frustrated like another product of a bad home. This reaction of yours is totally irrational. You can do better. Or do you still believe your wail will intimidate others into submission？ If that's the root of your frustrated comment, you would do better for yourself by personality checking in into the nearest psychiatric facility. Sweet dreams!

This guy is as daft as his face. I haven't seen the worst minister of power like this one. We used to have 23hrs of electricity in my area prior to this. Now, we hardly see three hours in a day. Anyway, I don comot eye for NEPA matter. If you have money, invest in solar and Inverter. You will be happier you did.

What then is federal government doing? They collect money from their agencies share it the state and local government nothing more nothing less.

IrepChrist:

Tinubu want to take wealth from the citizens. Even now they want to tax content creators (after they pay tax to USA, then VAT in Nigeria, by the time they remove cost of production, it is slavery).

Tollgate government.

What exactly do we do in this country that is government owned. ? That we don't have to pay one organization? Is there anything? I thought we generate electricity. Which one is GenCos again?

faceland:
I don't blame them. It is those making solar panel too expensive.

We need to make these people obsolete.

I swear, how can 250watts solar panel be 120k. Batter 250k.

I feel hopeless for this country, I haven't had light for almost 2week now.

Y'all see this? Well I'm just saying the thing is that idgaf about this whole situation

Wow!! And I thought this administration would be smart enough to disregard IMF's recommendation to remove the electricity subsidy. LOL! The suffering we are suffering never do APC? They should try it and see how far

The truth color don dey come out... 😂

Which electricity are this people subsidizing self 😂?
Me that stay in abuja, is only midnight they use to bring there light over here. Sometimes I use to power my generator throughout the night 😔

Excuses , excuses and more excuses that is what they have been giving since 2015. Ever since the drug Baron took over Nigeria has been plunged into darkness on every front

akaahs:

Did they fix our refinery b4 removal of petrol subsidy
Dey play

Electricity case is different..in the sense that, Petroleum subsidy we're being enjoyed by not only Nigerians, but huge populations of neighbouring countries. Subsidized petroleum products were being smuggled to those countries.

For electricity..the subsidy is solely for Nigerians and Nigerians only.
