God bless those soldiers for the good work.

LeopardX:
So will the bill be reduced after this cowardly act by the Army?
What's bad is bad.

the do harras ppl wit army as well in my state as well,not a joke

rayvelez:
Banana countree 😂 🤣

How is it banana country? NEPA or whatever they are called deserve beating everyday.

Bittersweetnig:
stop going to that office cos you will still be beating properly, the last time I checked, the worse military government is better than the best useless democracy, Everyone including you are responsible for Nigeria failure

You are a very, very angry person.

The question is: have you channeled that anger properly? How many local government, state and federal elections have you voted in - since you became an adult? Answer truthfully.

Bittersweetnig:
let use Abacha as a case study, Abacha met dollar #18 to 1USD, when he died in 1998, USD was still #18,

^^^
Not so fast.

Only the well connected could get USD at the official rates during the Abacha administration. The exchange rate differential during the Abacha years was something else - many bankers made pots of money from 'round tripping' during those days.

You (that is, ordinary Nigerians) simply couldn't get USD at the official rate then. The late Sam Aluko (one of the Abacha administration's major advisers) had unworkable ideas of how a modern economy should run - and the exchange rate differential of that time proved how outdated his ideas were.

Ask those who were around then.

Bittersweetnig:
ETF projects can still be pointed at till today. Most of the best infrastructure we have today was done during military regime like 3rd mainland bridge.

^^^
On this I must concede that you do have a point. It says a lot about how poorly politicians have performed when the most visible examples for durable infrastructure in Nigeria are from military regimes from over 30 years ago. Having said that, you must never forget that those military regimes were completely unaccountable to anyone. They played a smart game of building some bridges, roads and hospitals but Nigerians simply don't know the scale of treasury looting by those soldiers. And of course, if you don't know, you don't know. Nearly two hundred million blissfully ignorant souls..

Bittersweetnig:
Can anything good come out of politicians tell me, those electricity workers are demons, no matter how Nigerians complain is non of their business. Their failure in the sector is legendary and they don't care, at least let hand touch them from time to time.

^^^
No.

The solution is not for military hand to 'touch them from time to time'. The solution is for Nigerians to demand answers from their politicians but Nigerians are simply not prepared to do that. Since Nigerians are not prepared to hold their politicians accountable, the estimated billing, lack of meters, arbitrary disconnection etc. will continue. If Nigerians get serious and decide that they will vote out the government if this power problem isn't solved in 4 years - you think this nonsense will continue? I promise you things will change immediately.

Electricity isn't black magic. How do other countries do it?

When we are ready, we know what to do. But i can assure you that poorly trained, incompetent soldiers going round beating electricity workers with impunity is definitely NOT the answer. One of these days, somebody is going to die when soldiers invade PHCN facilities and beat people up. What happens then?

themanderon:



I know .

BAT/APC govt glorifies agberoism, "toutism' & violence; they must be stopped; they're just too few

They are attacking the wrong people. They should be attacking the govt of the day. The infrastructures are dated, there's no diversity in power generation and distribution. We produce a measly 5000mwh. The military should invade Aso rock and leave innocent workers earning less than 100k per month alone.

jmoore:
They recruited terrorists into 9ja military, that's why they think every problem can be solved with terrorism.

The terrorists in 9ja military are kidnapping electricity workers and idi0ts are clapping for them.

..abi..the repentant bandits and terrorists they recruited into the military are the ones attacking the NEPA staff... instead of the government to prescute and execute those repentant bandits and terrorists

Instead of them to invade aso rock villa and maltreat Tinubu that is causing the lack of power supply in Nigeria ..for he promised nigerians constant electricity during his presidential campaign

Dogalmighty17:
This is shameful. Shame on the Nigerian army. Tomorrow when Amnesty International releases a report documenting the abuses of the army, the Nigerian army will deny it.

But we all know that the Nigerian army and indeed the Nigerian armed forces are unprofessional in everything they do. This is sickening. Post those cowards to Borno and watch as they start begging to be posted out of the conflict zone. See how their mates in Israel have tamed Hamas in less than a year but our armed forces have spent over 16 years battling poorly trained boko haram.

Bunch of incompetent uniformed men.

wake up, there's nothing like biko haram all those things na media frenzy wey military dey take chop Nigeria money. Security budget done fat pass education budget. The last time I visited maidugri those military just dey dey lounge and playing golf . East is even far more dangerous than the north

Very stubborn people they want them to learn by force , normally if not for yeye country,night no supposed dey go not to talk of barracks,where people securing you are living

I was very happy seeing Army teaching them a small lesson.

But you'll cry fowl if they assault your mama or papa on the street. Impki
