The thing is, power is very expensive to produce

Nairametrics has stated that it would cost 100 billion dollars to give every Nigerian 24 hour power supply. Over a period of 5 years. And the only way it can be done is to let the power sector charge cost reflective tarrifs.

Yes, the power companies made over one trillion naira in profit last year. Good for them. They also owe 1.7 trillion to the gas man,and the gas man has also raised their prices recently. Then they owe state and federal government taxes. Also three of the discos declared force majeure because they cannot earn enough. Then there are the losses from corruption and mismanagement and power theft. Even aso Rock don't pay for power.

So either we pay cost reflective tarrifs or we would never have good enough power.

People on this site have abused me and trolled me for this my belief. And even called me apc supporter when apc is still paying subsidy. But the sad thing is, no matter how much you abuse me , it costs money to generate power. And things like new power stations cost money. Expanding the grid to carry 50000 mw, which is what we need to supply everyone and even export power will cost a lot of money.

So, we can keep lying to ourselves anyway. Lying to ourselves by paying subsidy for 50 years is why we are here with bad power.

GSM works better because they have the right to set their prices.

At the end, I am.not defending any useless government. Back when pdp was in charge most of the people defending subsidy then are attacking it now. Most of the subsidy removal supporters now are people who when gej wanted to remove it were attacking him. Am sure some of you think I marched at ojota. I didn't. Infact gej, noi and sls are the people who taught me why subsidy is bad. It strikes down growth and profit. Even when you make the profit , it don't do much. I have held this view for 12 years, and it has nothing to do with politics.

So Nigerians, as useless as this apc government is, their self inflicted financial mess has forced them to take the first steps towards a wise decision. We need investors and the reasons why we never had sane people buying our power sector is because none of them want to come and invest and never see their investment because subsidy. Once that is gone, things might change.

You are free to disagree with me and to call me government propaganda and to say am making the poor suffer. Or you can support your right to defend the right to make a profit. Whether disco or you. You will never cut your prices to help the poor. You have a business to run.

( Any abuse is useless. You don't need to get mad over the fact that things cost money after all.)

The sad truth is that even after the cost reflective tariffs, the federal government and her agencies will still not pay for the power and they are the highest consumers of power. My friend in the police barracks can’t even remember when he paid for power last.

Na him papa buy am for dem?

Defended Buhari's pestilence on Nigerians and now defending Tinubu's pestilence.

What is wrong with you guys?

FreeStuffsNG:
Smh. Only ignorant people will take this OP serious.

The interview stated that the main reason is because government has been subsidising and it's unsustainable so they approved NERC's recommendation that electricity consumers who get electricity for 20 hours and above should be taken off subsidy so that government can still manage to cope giving subsidies to those enjoying less hours of electricity.

You guys better quit social media and go to great school so that Government will take you serious. That man , the Minister of Power, Adelabu, you are misquoting has a 1st Class in Accountancy from OAU, Ile Ife o.

It's not enough to hide on the social media to troll, insult and criminally cyberbully others, what do you have to offer and what are you doing to make your life and that of others better.

Is like you are still being fed by your parents .

You can disagree with me, but you don't have to be abusive and childish
Grow up.

I'm serious. If I said that you were still being fed by your parents, not only won't you like it, you would get angry and upset. You don't have to do to others what you don't want to be done to you.

If you talk smack again, I'll simply report you to the mods.

This people and shifting the goal post all in a bid to find excuses for failures. A typical Agbado muncher like him will tell Nigerians that APC have excuses to fail for 100 years since PDP failed Nigerians for 16 years. These lots can never fail to amaze us o. 😬😬😬😬

That they Govt,including Many States,the MDAS ( Min and Depts),the States and National Assembly - are the greatest Debtors!
Another thing is the Minister of Power - Adelabu- saying that - if everyone is supplied the Pre- Paid,then if I now enjoy my 24/7 light,why is he blaming those who left their light on? Can't your Prepaid Meters takes care of that
or is that reason of Consumption Management tenable?
Why can't your dept provide Nigerians with Pre- Paid Meters - just because of Corruption!

You see the nonsense in power. People are enjoying the service so you intend to make it expensive so that they have hard time getting it just to suit your wierd fantasy of seeing people suffer

Let’s be frank, power is cheap in Nigeria. If not what else is responsible for people leaving their security lights on 24hrs.
In my area they sometimes leave our streetlights on all through the day, and I do tell my wife that electricity is too cheap Nigeria. Them no born you well to put lights on anyhow

Talk to me directly, don't go through the bending corner.

Nigeria produces around 2.5% of what developed countries produce, per capita. And this incompetent greedy corrupt c0cksvcker tells Nigerians to consume less... WTF?! Embezzle less, build 45 power plants for each power plant that exists today, and then open your dirty gutter mouth.

I know your mama gave birth to you in a chemist store through abortion, the LovePeddler raped agberos.

I see, no wonder you are embittered, grieving and frustrated, I didn't expect your mother to be what you listed and you are normal, but despite what you said she is a trollop and LovePeddler raped by agberos and unknown gunmen, that doesn't mean you should ridicule and molest the mother that gave birth to you just because she did do much for you, respect, honor and take care of her despite your embittered grouse against her.

Laughing. How many workers earning or making above 100k monthly in Nigeria as at today?

my.reference is UK.
But you just proved my point in terms of earnings with respect to minimum wage

PandoraObi:
He is correct, you never see 100, 65 or 200 candescent bulbs in Liberia, a school there that used $100 worth of current between 3weeks became wise. they don't leave appliances on when it is not mostly needed.

Purge yourself of bitterness and grieves, empty your cup, read and understand, don't let anguish render your brain useless

U are not well.

Customers using prepaid meters won't do such.

So, when a consumer is using much, he/she should pay higher? If one is buying 100ltrs of PM's everyday, his price tag should be higher than others...... What kind of mathematics is this?

It's like you know and connect to most of Nigerian politicians please I need empowerment to start a business. I am a graduate of accounting but I am underemployed and the little money I saved from my salary during Buhari tenure has disappeared now because of inflation.

If you see where I live now you will pity me, I really need help. I want to start business, this salary work is not making me to come out of poverty.
Thank you.

This one na craze man be that
