PoliticsRe: Whose Responsibility Is It To Replace Broken-Down Electricity Transformers? by 89green: 8:53am On Jan 16, 2024
nairalanda1:
Ideally, it is the job of the local DISCO, not the job of PHCN. PHCN does not exist. Discos and gencos and TCN have replaced it.

But as to why consumers contribute...this one is easy.


Nigerians are not paying cost reflective tarrifs for electricity. Additionally, over 30% of us do not pay for the power we use.(If you think I am lying...google for the PwC report Solving the Liquidity crunch in the power sector).

As a result, your local DISCO is owing money, and at least 3 of them have been taken over by the banks. Up till today...many of our DISCOS have not broken even. THREE of them, and I mean three of them, have been taken over by their creditors, one has been taken over defacto by the government.

Why...because Nigerians do not want to pay their power bills at market price. We think we must have power for free.


Meanwhile, GSM companies, if the antenna spoil, dem go replace am. Your local provision store owner, if he runs out of milk today, he will replace it within a few hours, if not tomorrow latest....because they are allowed to do something the power sector is not allowed to do. Sell at market price.


This is the result of not letting DISCO set prices.....you will be asked to contribute for your generator.


I went to a private school for primary school, and then for secondary school, na government school I go. My school fees in the primary school were at one point three times what I eventually was paying in the government secondary school I went to....yet in the primary school, in over 6 years of being there it was two times I bought exercise book for myself...the second time, because the supplier was late,and I was advised to buy a book...anyway, normal service was resumed in a few days.

When I entered secondary school, I was paying cheap school fees. Guess what......in my six years there I was buying all my exercise books and stationeries and textbooks while there. Something that in my private primary school..they were issuing us textbook.



Let us all pay a cost reflective tarrif.......and you will see your disco provide you with high quality transformer that would last 300 years. Not this one where we pretend power is cheap, and where in some areas half the population thinks it is free of charge. Ok o.
Is that also why we are yet to have 247 electricity since 1960s till datehuh
Just beating around the bush and failing to address the main point. There is nothing like cost reflective tarriff.
PoliticsRe: Whose Responsibility Is It To Replace Broken-Down Electricity Transformers? by 89green: 8:49am On Jan 16, 2024
jmoore:
This is one crucial point you have failed to address. Nigerians have been buying transformers, poles, wires for the DISCOS but you keep talking about how Nigerians are not paying the right tariff for darkness supplied. Government is even paying electricity subsidy for the paltry 5,000 megawatts that can't power up to 30 million Nigerians at a time.

Rest with your propaganda!!
That guy is just offpoint, beating around the bush. He couldn't just address the point.
EducationRe: UNILAG Convocation: Falola Advocates Study Of Ifa, Witchcraft In Universities by 89green: 8:32am On Jan 16, 2024
Yugoslavia247:
After studying witchcraft be sure not to ever get employed in many institutions not because you are incompetent but the fact that you know so much evil. Your boss will not like to work with someone who has a degree in witch craft.

Best thing after that is to go to Ogun state and start the mining factory.

We all know what is mined on Ogun state.
Foolish fool.

BusinessRe: Blackrock To Buy Adebayo Ogunlesi’s Global Infrastructure Partners For $12.5B by 89green: 7:50pm On Jan 12, 2024
FreeStuffsNG:
BlackRock Inc. agreed to buy Adebayo Ogunlesi’s Global Infrastructure Partners for about $12.5 billion, vaulting the world’s biggest money manager into the top ranks of investors that make long-term bets on energy, transportation and digital infrastructure..

This is phenomenally huge! Congrats sir. You're truly peerless.
Sagamu is trying o. Haba! From Anthony Joshua now to Chief Adebayo Ogunlesi! Wow!! I am so proud of Sagamu joor. Proud of these great Nigerian exports to the world.

Chief Adebayo Ogunlesi goes for very audacious goals and gets it done. He is just too phenomenal and I nominate him to be conferred with a GCON national honour. He is following in the footsteps of late Lagos Island-born Chief Dehinde Fernandez.
God bless Nigeria for ever!
