I've not heard you say that about all these bombers wearing hijab. Tell me, the falz song with ladies on hijab and boko haram on hijab killing innocent people which one is worst? Some of you Moslems are trouble makers later you'll start shouting religion of peace. Tell boko haram bombers to stop wearing hijab too.
ezekielenejeta: Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) Chairman Prof. James Momoh yesterday vowed to review the prevailing electricity tariff.
Speaking with reporters after the Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola inaugurated him in Abuja, he said the commission would look into the computation of the tariff. He said: “The tariff is not a challenge you cannot solve. It happened, you learnt something about it last week. You don’t have to relearn the same lesson today.
“You should be able to ask question–what are we going to do tomorrow to avoid the problem?. There is what you call data science in the new thinking of the world, where we collect data, you learn from the information and you predict the future. So if we don’t do that, we are wasting our time. Because you know it is going to rain tomorrow so you get your umbrella. You don’t wait until it rains before you go by umbrella.”
Momoh added: “We have no choice; we have to look at what computes a tariff. Tariff is not a guesswork. There is a calculation you do to get there.”
He said he believed in team work for quick wins, adding that some of the quick wins should be what the commission could do in terms of estimated billings and how to ensure that it gets enough data to convince customers to pay for the power they use.
Momoh said: “If we remain the same, and we remain static, and we are not solving real problem, we will just be doing fire brigade promise. The GenCos will always tell you there is a blackout without knowing why.
“You are going to ask question why. I know why, because I know the Mathematics behind it, I know the Physics behind it. I know also the Economics behind it. If we are able to teach people to know why things go wrong, perhaps, we learn from our mistakes,” he said.
Momoh, who said the industry should anticipate problems, insisted that “we look back, we use lessons of yesterday to solve tomorrow’s problem.”
Earlier, Fashola said observers would admit that power supply has increased since 2015, submitting that “without a doubt, we have increased generation to 7000Mw, increasing the transmission to over 7,000Mw, and increasing the distribution from 2,690 to average of 4,900 or 5,000.”
He said the electricity market has a capacity of 2,000Mw that has been stranded, which the ministry is working to distribute before this year end.
According to him, the NESI has a new stock of 459Mw underway from Azura that has notified him on the completion of its plant and its readiness to commence operation.
Momoh said the sector is expecting another 240Mw from Afam and another 215Mw from Kaduna. Besides, he noted that the market is also expecting power from Kashimbilla, “but the distribution end is where our challenge lies.”
Fashola said the mini-grid regulation has started yielding results, and the ministry is already seeing the impacts in the market.
He said this year, markets such as Suru in Lagos, Sabon Gari in Kano, Ariria in Aba, and some other markets are going to be energised.
Fashola noted that since the completion of the privatisation of the sector, the size of the ministry has shrunk from the previous staff strength of the 50,000 to less than 1,000.

When will you increase electricity supply? Na only tarrif you know?

obailala: Go and educate yourself and stop displaying politically driven ignorance. There is nothing wrong in importing high nutrient grass seedlings for cultivation in Nigeria which has the capacity to explosively multiply both beef and milk production. Grass is not grass, read the freaking article first before you jump into comments; this is standard agricultural practice all over the world and this is the reason people spend years in universities and research institutes studying agriculture. You cannot expect progress when you continue practising archaic agric methods and this is the difference that has always separated Africa from the developed.
You're funny. Which grass are the cows we have in Nigeria today eating? Is it not the same grass we have in the country? Or did they import the one you're advocating and placed them on the way? I've said it before that to you people, knowing about politics is lying so to me I'm not a politician. I stand on truth and nothing else.
Samyj247: tell him to start up a business.... help him to start up a business.... u must not work to be rich. after all he has worked for 8 years and still not rich....u guys should think of a good Biz and start immediately.. u will gradually become rich
Nwaisuochi: I am with FFK on this;anyone who tries to cover up for or trivialise the murderous atrocities of the fulani herdsmen is a scum and Reno is a scum
I agree with you. How can IPOB that didn't kill one person be proscribed as a terror group but Miyetti Allah is not proscribed? I don't understand that.
invisikay: In Today's service in daystar, Pastor Sam Adeyemi shared his view on tithe, he says that tithe as paid in the old Testament as a law with curses attached has expired, and no Christian should be pressured or forced to pay tithe, he also said that not paying tithe does not attract a curse for a Christian, since we are under a new covenant, he however stated that giving is a choice, everyone should decide the percentage they want to pay with the knowledge that you will be blessed based on how you give. You can watch the video on the church YouTube Channel, Facebook page or website today
So daddy freeze is right all these while? I knew it when suileman , oyakhilome, adeboye and co couldn't give a bible quotation to back up their point. Well, Benny Hill has confessed and now pastor sam. Let's keep on watching and waiting for our super star pastors like oyedepo, kashimolowo or what of kicc and others to see what they have to say to all these confessions. Mostly those that insulted Freeze
Shankieboy: I was never molested. I was never initiated. My orientation started since nursery school. Gayism wasn't even a thing then. It was never learned. I never knew I wasn't alone till years ago.
You meant you started having sexual feelings when you were in nursery school? Brother you can lie oooo. Sexual feeling at that age? And you were aware of what you were doing at that age? Please stop that lie
Did the court tell the Army to invade his house? Was Kanu not preparing to go to Abuja for his trial before the president told the army in democratic govt to go and pick him up. Are you sure that they didn't pick him? Why did they invade his house? These are questions to ask. Meanwhile, was there security threat and crisis before the invasion? No, Army is saying they are for peace while they were the one that caused crisis in Abia State.
bakila: The sureties ought to remind Kanu to be of good behaviour and remember his bail conditions. If they feel he is uncontrollable they his apply to be discharged of their suretyship. They rather ignored the breaches of many of his bail conditions, they will have to justify why they wont forfiet the N100m.
DLioness: Under the Nigerian Legal System, the kind of marriage btw ur dad and ur mum wl play a role in determining issues. If ur dad and ur mum did marriage undr the Act and ur fada died wtout a Will, the first prsn entitld to letter of administratn of the entire estate is ur mum. If it is only customary marriage btw ur dad and mum, the cot is bound by ur customary law only to the extnt dt the custom is nt repugnant to natural justice, equity and good conscience.
In eida case, u ve a legal rit and the cot wl mst likly cm to ur aid.
baby124: There is something like illegitimate children. We are not getting anywhere as you fail to read. If it hurts that you are an illegitimate child, then too bad. But if your father did not marry your mother then you are illegitimate. Now, back to our argument, the wife is entitled to live in her husband's jointly occupied property and even will it on her death. That still stands. I am talking about the sharing of other properties, the spouse is entitled to a bigger share than the kids. You better not go and fight your father's WIFE over her property because you will lose big time and come out with a smaller share than you thought. You think those people getting married are just throwing a party? Your comments show that you have no idea what a marriage is and what it protects or provides each spouse. No law in this world will support you stealing your father's WIFE's jointly occupied property. Read up on Community property. You know nothing Excuseme.
vodutive: does Ibo traditional law not state that since your father did not marry his mother he belongs to his mother's family?
That's nt Igbo culture. The son or child must always go to the father. Whether married to d mother or not.
Meanwhile sis, I'm an igbo man. Take my advice. Your half brother was misinformed. He does not have any right to eject your mother from the house she was living with her husband. If he tell your tenants to start paying him house rent, it will be another matter bt to eject your mother from d flat is wrong and unacceptable. Be informed dt there is a recent supreme court case dt says dt a girl child has equal right of inheriting her fathers property. Bt my own question on dt is does d supreme court have d right to change people's culture?
My dear your advice is good bt y are u advising him to keep this result and write another? 5 credits? Y don't u pick up a brochure and go thru it and see dt he is qualified to study a lot of courses with this result. 'To pass exam dey easy?' Pls stop joor
Prettiepearlz: Na wa ooooooooo, can't you all see that he is depressed already, he doesn't need some fools here to make him more depressed. Can you imagine that holywizard calling him a failure, who the hell are you to call someone a failure? Then a tribalist that you are, you even brought a whole tribe into this case. You had better look past all that so you can forge ahead in life. Mrluv, I would advise you to enrol for GCE as you know admission now is calculated with points and your O' level results are also part of the points, don't EVER see yourself as a failure no matter what, when you fall you stand up. Enrol for another exam and then you prepare for it like its your last. I wish you all the best sweet. Ignore the fools who have no better things to say here, I bet some of them wrote WAEC like twice before they passed. Gosh nairaland is filled with negative people now, I miss those days of matured and intelligent people who give positive advices. You kids should grow up.
[quote author=Holywizard post=47347640]His English is so bad. Schools no longer accept D7. If even he gets adm while conducting his screening exercise dey will eventually screen him out. He will be de person to lose via money, time, hope etc wasted[/quote
You're joking right? With his result his best course is either economics or bus admin. He can study sociology.philosophy, history etc. BT with a one in commerce, he shld try pub admin and a lot of management courses. Bros don't write another waec if u don't want to
[Qquote author=Omohjick post=47346547]
Oh dear I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. If u want to study accounting u should av acct, economics nd government or commerce with compulsory 2 subjects English nd mathematics. Studying Economics, u will need geography with d ones u already av. But maybe u can study CRK in whc u don't av yoruba . remember in any course u want to study u must av d compulsory 2 subjects whc r English n mathematics with 3 other relevant subjects. Get a Jamb brochure for more info. Just stop wasting time and get another form then focus more on d subjects uv failed. Best wishes![/quote]
yomalex: Only Agriculturalists will understand this better
Understand importation of grass with high nutrient? Which one were d cows eating when roaming about? Abeg dnt support these evil politicians we have in d country and their wacked theories.
Mr know all Pls tell me, did d 30 yrs old man nt know dt it is wrong for him to marry a girl of 14 yrs old in d South? Let's believe d girl agreed to marry him bt tell me who did he pay d girls dowry to? Or doesn't d northerners pay dowry to their in-laws? Y lie dt d girl is 17 instead of 14? Y did d emir keep her for so long in his palace? Food for thought.
fiizznation: Hypocrisy in this country stinks to high heavens. You see people insulting Islam over what is a norm in the suppose "holy south" were a girl leaves her parents home to be with her man friend even when she is 14yrs. The funny thing about the people insulting Islam is that they are dirty people doing all sorts of dirty and abominable things.
How can a sane man "abduct" a supposed sane girl from beyelsa to kano without her full consent? Does it even make any sense? So yunusa forced the girl into a cab all the way from bayelsa to kano without facing any resistance from her or without anybody noticing? This is the very vital question the "holy ones" need to ask themselves
The party in a statement by its National Legal Adviser, Mr. Victor Kwom, stated that the arrest and detention of its Deputy National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission was part of “the grand script by the APC-led Federal Government to decimate the opposition.”
“We are also aware that plans have been perfected by the Federal Government to arrest and detain the Deputy Senate President, Sen. Ike Ekweremadu; Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Godswill Akpabio and other leaders of the party on imaginary charges.
“Indeed, intelligence available to the party shows that the Federal Government, using its various agencies, is bent on destroying any opposition to the ruling party as all indications show that the government is more interested in humiliating the PDP than fighting corruption.
“We state that this war on the PDP and its leaders has indeed gone too far. It has now become a mockery of democratic practice”, Kwom said.
