Bobby4090:
Mr. Man, are you his secret PR Officer. The man you are singing his praises is the worst minister so far. I dont believe in talks. I believe in action. How many kilometers of federal roads has he added to the ones he inherited . What of light, he has left it in a worse situation than he met it. Yet electricity bills have been increased fraudulently. Let us face facts and stop this your propaganda job.
like i said earlier, leave politics till late 2018, when the next national election will hold.

One will have to be naive or simply political to expect so much from a 4 months old minister with the 2016 budget yet to be signed/approved. he has the largest chunk of allocation of the budget though, i bet there would be lots to see from him as the year progresses. I am no pr bla bla, but i like to observe things dispassionately, because emotions becloud objectivity.

The man should be thought protected sex if he is not aware yet. You dont give birth to a baby you clearly cant take care of the BASIC needs, it is wickedness, foolishness and selfishness rolled in to one. I wont be surprised if on the child's naming ceremony he blocked the streets for celebration. He is a moronn, with no iota of planning in his veins.

3 things needed for the couple to be legally together.

Daniel may have divorced his ex wife the actress 2 stella may have divorced her ex husband mr nzeribe 3 stella and daniel may have sealed their union legally in a court of law.

If the 3 conditions have been fulfilled, which i doubt any one here is certain of, the case is closed.

Although, ethically, daniel and stella appears wrong, especially stella, the social opprobrium favours her not.

i think the main news was left out, which is 9 bids has been received from firms to set up refineries at the same location 3 of Nigerian refineries are. I prefer the long term sustainable solution, and i think the bids are at least 6 months late, the bid committee should get to work already and award those competent enough to site refineries and get them running in less than 24 months.

Importing and oversupplying refined oil product which the previous admin used to solve the fuel scarcity issue was not a sustainable solution, it was a wasteful and unsustainable fix .

Politics › Re: Fashola Settles EEDC And Geometric Power Dispute Over Supply To Aba by chinchum(m):
Fashola is 4 months old at his job, but i am certain he will do a yeomans job. He is a fantastic thinker with good attention to details. Some ignorant folks have accused him of increasing electricity tariff, but that is not his doing, the privatised discos signed a multi year tarriff order some years back with the FG, which implies gradual increase in tariff, the recent increment in tariff was due just before the 2015 election, but the then govt impressed it on the discos to suspend till after elections.

From my assessment of Fasholas in his 4 months , he has a draft roadmap for the power sector 2. he has persuaded the discos to suspend service charges on consumer bills 3. he has been able to settle out of courts the protracted legal case that made 300,000 pre paid meters redundant in a ware house.

this news also adds another feather to the cap of his achievements . There are definitely many other goodies in the pipeline, this is not the time to play politics of hate, national election is not holding until late 2018 or early 2019. Apc nd pdp will settle scores then.

He is not the first power minister with no engineering qualification, the likes of Bola ige, liyel imoke, segun agagu e,t.c were once power ministers, but they flunked at their jobs.

I bet that by the time he is 18 months on that seat, most Nigerians will say he was a round peg in a round hole.
Politics › Re: President Buhari On Nuclear Energy by chinchum(m): 9:15pm On Mar 31, 2016
FG has picked Kogi and Akwa ibom state.

It is easiest to generate large MW of electricity using the nuclear way than any other , however, it is the most risky.

I suggest we get it done at the moment while we are grappling with power shortages, and plan to decommission within 10-15 years after operation starts, hopefully by then we would as a nation have commissioned other means of power generation that can meet /exceed the nations electric power needs

If you read the article you posted, you will see that when the egyptian pounds was officially devalued, the rate for the egyptian pounds at the parallel market got worse. The moment Naira is officially devalued, it will begin to post worse performance at the parallel market than it is currently at.

Why the wailing zombies will continue to do what they know how to do best, Mr. President will forge ahead and get the job done.

two weeks ago, the director general of IAEA International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA was in aso rock, nigeria.

Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/03/nigeria-to-generate-4000-megawatts-of-electricity-with-iaea-support/

BUJA—President Muhammadu Buhari has appreciated the support of the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, for Nigeria’s quest to generate 4,000 megawatts of electricity using nuclear energy. This came as Ministers of Power, Solid Minerals, Health, Science and Technology told President Buhari that Nigeria would soon start a program that will help the country realize the objective. According to them, it will commerce with 1000MW of electricity in the first instance and increased later to 4,000 megawatts. The ministers told the President that preparatory steps had been taken to train doctors and other medical specialists to prepare for unforeseen circumstances, establish specialist medical centres and procure necessary equipment aimed at protecting the health of the citizens. Speaking while receiving Mr. Yukiya Amano, the Director-General of the IAEA at the presidential villa yesterday, President Buhari said he was happy that the organization was developing a program from which Nigeria would benefit. President Buhari charged the IAEA to do more to support Nigeria, in view of the long years of its association and support for the nuclear regulatory agency. The meeting which had the ministers also attracted the presence of the Vice President, Yemi Osinabjo. Addressing the President, Mr. Amano said he was pleased to see that Nigeria was taking the correct steps toward a safe usage of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.

Atlantian:
Words like "devalue the Naira" is not supposed to exist. The right words should be "allow the value of naira to be determined by economic forces" while you block leakages. No one should charge fees and sell items in dollars or any other foreign currency in Nigeria. Close down all USD denominated account and convert the funds at agreed fx rate to Naira, then allow importers to conduct their businesses with certain tact and tax. Right ? But CBN decided to fix false exchange rate for Naira and still changes policy up and down like amarteurs. Do they not know that the single problem facing the economic is keeping funds in foreign currencies called Dorm accounts ?

Close down dorm account and allow every international transfers be settled in our local currency. That solves the very immediate step.
you cant allow naira to the dollar to be determined by economic forces at the moment, we are clearly disadvantaged. It is like saying allowing a skinny 10 year old boy to fight bare handed with a 25 year old man. You want to know why we are disadvantaged ? Our current productive forces in the country is close to nil, we are not ready for such battle. We are a consuming nation, on what pedestal do you then begin to allow the value of naira to be determined by economic forces. We need to up our productive forces to a situation where we are not importing tooth pick,pencils, tissue paper e.t.c The moment we are no longer a monolithic economy depending virtually only on oil like a banana republic, we are good to go.

OlujobaSamuel:
I get you sir, but they are still distributing fixed charge and estimated billing.
Also, the 300000 is nothing close to many, so his opinion on that is flawed.
I hope he will get it right. That's why I said I love his will, but sometimes, his decision is like a derailing train, you can't stop it until it reaches a clog, by then, the havoc is always better imagined than experienced.
I think your understanding is deficient.
Any discos still distributing fixed charge must be called out, my disco IBEDC has stopped from february. No one can give estimated billing on a PRE PAID METER.

\With a prepaid meter, every households will learn to conserve power usage in their homes, thereby freeing up power for others more than the status quo. That bulb in your sitting room you leave on at daytime will most likely be switched off when you are connected to a prepaid meter. Instead of consuming say 50kwh, if you consume 35kwh, that 15kwh you conserved becomes available for others.

300,000 prepaid meters added to what is currently on ground is a lot, judging by the seeming scarcity of the prepaid meters, though i sense the scarcity is artificial.

londoner:
Can someone explain how the 300,000 Meters will improve the supply of electricity?
Thanks.
Some 2 months back, fixed service charge for consumers has been suspended. Distribution coys uses estimated billing in most cases, cheating consumers, as such are not interested in improved supply. Should there be meters so that the distribution coys get only what they deserve from consumers, they will sit up. i recall, it was reported some distributed coys refuse to accept supplied power from transmission end, what that implies is that they are primarily interested in profit, and they are getting it in a way detriment to the end consumers.

You are still educating these APC apologists even passingshot fell for this lie which has been told over time. I ask him for empirical evidence to his claim but he cowardly chicken out. cheesy
Chief Audu Ogbeh, the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, has issued a clarification in response to reports that the government intends to import grass to feed cows. “This is absolutely not true,” said the Minister in a statement.

According to the Minister, what Nigeria plans to do is to import seedlings to grow improved varieties of grass in Nigeria. He said there is no intention to import grass wholesale.

The minister has said a number of times recently that Nigeria needs improved varieties of grass, some of which can be found in Brazil and Kenya, both tropical countries sharing many attributes with Nigeria. The climatic similarities – which mean varieties of grass will have no difficulty adapting to Nigerian climate – as well as the fact that those varieties contain about 28 per cent higher crude protein , are responsible for the Minister’s decision. http://www.thescoopng.com/nigeria-import-grass-seedlings-not-grass-audu-ogbeh-clarifies/

I can see some mentally retarrded zombies using the malaysian example to promote a primordial sentiment and egg on the president to attempt his foolish adventure of grass seedling importation..

Let me remind the zombies that there was never a time Malaysians came to Nigeria for palm seed. It was a jumbo sized lie told over and over.

As for president buhari importing grass seedling into the country with same forex oda businesses have no access, let me quickly remind him that in the south cows are grazing on grasses here. Let the govt buy land for the herdsmen and build ranches. We have over 500 specie of grass in the south. It really doesnt make sense importing grass seedling from brazil.

Lets patronise home grown grass to improve the naira. Dont import grass seedling from Brazil.
Seedlings have varieties, and if it will improve yield you will source it, only wailing zombies criticise everthing to think they are doing opposition to government of the day.
