Almost two years have passed in a four-year tenure, and they're still using the word 'we will! We will!'

Ijaya123:
Really?

Is there any country in the world that sells unsubsidized petrol at the equivalent of N600 per liter?

sirblend:
How is electricity supply far better? When power generation has never exceeded 6000MW?

It's high time we drop this APC/PDP/ Labour party mentality.

Procashtips:
Imagine a struggling tailor being forced to use band A.

She makes ₦70k in a month but ends up using ₦45k to pay for electricity.

How's she expected to thrive?

The dangote refinery doesn’t work. It’s a scam.

Explain to me how imported fuel at this high exchange rate will be cheaper than “Dangote” fuel? How?

The simple answer is Dangote also import! His refinery is a scam.

helinues:
Mambilla Power Project
Ajaokuta steel
Lagos-Ibadan express way.

You see those 3 things have cost Nigeria a lot yet nothing to show for it

Yourprick:
They didn't need 21 billion for renovation ,Nigeria has a spending problem

https://x.com/thecableindex/status/1882688726800720345?t=13LQSghV2wez_QWewvSUUA&s=19[/quote]This is the 'false' contribution that the new tax bill seeks to correct. This contribution is on the basis of HQ, not on the basis of where the service or goods were consumed. If you do it that way, Lagos and Rivers will not appear to have contributed so much.

Lagos has Oil companies, MTN, Airtel, Dangote, Breweries

Rivers has Oil companies

igala1:
In as much as I'm not speaking for Tinubu's administration, it's the easiest thing to walk up to the DISCOs to know how conditions for the migration. Obviously, areas that have up-to 80% prepaid meters would be migrated to band A. Areas with 60% prepaid meter would likely me migrated to band B.

Jossyroyal1:
People should be allowed to chose their band if we must use.

People should not be forced to be on a particular band.

Mandate1:
You give light to Band A, and throw others into unbearable darkness. This is pure wickedness.

Electricity was not this bad under Buhari, it's a shame that Nigerians are suffering this much under Tinubu.

Jokerman:
Can you name one thing Nigerians are benefitting from this government?

Something tangible and what's is down to the local level?

Some other governments Nigerians enjoyed free education, reduced cost of petrol, cheap commodities in the market, etc??

So who can point out one thing Nigerians are benefitting from BAT government

This man just dey run his mouth cho cho cho cho

First of all, it is deeply concerning the change in rhetoric that occurs when the teeth of otherwise intelligent and resourceful professional are set on corn. The kind of gibberish that starts to flow is a sign that the corn being offered on a platter is indeed of the fermented stock. It intoxicates the gobbler with a resultant effect that's comparable with that of the famed 40 year whiskey.

That said, I find it insulting to Nigerians and their hardwork and intelligence when people make this silly narratives of fake life or window-dressed realities. This is more so when the people who make these kind of condescending statements are those who have benefited maximally from the society and have not ploughed back what can be said to be commensurate with what they've accrued for themselves from the proverbial cake.

Imagine a situation where a man who after enjoying the benefits of the high office of governor, and while leaving office makes a law that enables him to continue to enjoy the perks of that same office perpetually as if he were still an occupant.

Not only that, choice properties are allocated to him by him. He then turns around to accuse others of living a fake life.

Ditto this particular case as well. A man who was called to rewrite tax laws which will ensure more money goes to the political elites to fund their excesses and lifestyle both in and out of office turns round to accuse others of window dressing their realities.

I make bold to say Nigerians are among the most deprived yet hopeful and hardworking on the surface of the earth.

The average Nigerian has no social infrastructure or welfare system to fall back on in time of crisis save for a strong family structure.

The average Nigerian farmer works with the least of tools. Yet he's been asked to produce crops to feed the populace and export as well.

The average mechanic works with the basic of tools.
Yet he's expected to drive innovation in technology.

Same for the average carpenter bricklayer, tailor etc. No program to empower such hardworking Nigerians exist.

Rather, they are dumped on the lowest rung of the ladder and left alone to climb or drown while getting talked down on if they ask for a reprieve.

The UK spends 25% of its budget on social welfare and infrastructure. In countries like Saudi which are oil producing like Nigeria, home ownership is a right.

Shall we speak of countries like Norway where unemployment benefits sometimes exceed employment income for the citizens.

Nigerian leaders and elites are among the most corrupt and wasteful in the world. Yet, they hardly take responsibility for how the country has turned out on their watch. They are a bunch of greedy taskmasters who believe in being unquestionable and unquestioned.

One day na one day sha

Godjone:
You said refinery will start working and when that is achieved, the price of PMS will drop significantly. Today, two of the refinery are already active but the prices keep souring higher.
Their next skit is to divert attention to how crude please price have increased in the international market yet we are a country that have crude and by virtue of the two activated refineries, international prices should not affect us.
The man tinubu and his gangs of tribalists have come to kill Nigeria and Nigerians . Very very insensitive animals

Nazgul:
No company in Nigeria can pay you such amount monthly unless your business is recording a tremendous amount of success or you're earning in USD.

That's the only way you can hit the 1m mark monthly.

Blazebond:
When same prices are reduced,it takes about 5-10 days for the marketers to bring it down,we Nigerians are not ready for the fncking truth sha,until we declare total war by ourselves on corruption and corrupt person's,we are not going anywhere.

SalamRushdie:
Till fuel prices drop to 420 naira litre the Nigerian economy can never grow , this week alone I have spentbover 200k on just Petro for private use , I never add the one of office ooo...it's not sustainable, cheaper energy is a must to grow an economy

nairalanda1:
A really heartless government would have kept fuel at 65 naira per liter.

By now we would have been spending 900 to 1000 naira per liter in subsides, or somewhere around 100 billion naira a day in subsides

Which amounts to 36 trillion naira annually by now.

What was our budget for this year again?

And the resulting hole would be filled by loans.

The resuliting economic chaos would make today's hardship look like fun and good times.

saintopus:
But they told us that crude oil is being sold to Dangote Refinery in Naira so why the increase again

Frezhkid10:
Bus is always cheaper than rail public transport..but faster!!..so depends on you if you want cheap use bus, you want to arrive at your destination early not minding the cost..use rail

Topman7:
Federal Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, was not a happy man.

He visited one of his numerous federal road projects and was dissatisfied with the quality and pace of work.

So he did what few, if any ministers had done before him.

He physically entered the road being built to show the foreign contractors the RIGHT WAY to build it, threatening that if they fail to follow his exact instructions henceforth, he would cancel their contract immediately and kick them out of the country.

This is the new Nigeria we want to see, and this is the new Nigeria we have.

COMPETENCE is the name of the game today in Nigeria.

If you like, call yourself oyinbo or ''expatriate''. If you don't deliver, we cancel you and kick you out.

Oh please . Let's stop making excuses for our leaders. They don't want a working Nigeria or African, but they are ok with Dubai and Saudi, with Taiwan and Singapore? With Ghana having uninterrupted Democracy for almost 40 years.
With India becoming the number one exporter of Tech power on Earth?

Why should anyone be responsible or interested in your development? Why should what your neighbor thinks of you be any concern?

Why should your neighbor be happy or interested
or contribute to your progress when he or she has their own problems?

Nigeria has been governed for over 60 years by Nigerians and almost all these leaders from Local Government to President are now billionaires in Naira simply by stealing from the money meant to develop your country, how is that sustainable?

ElevationD:
It was not redundant for 13 years. Read clearly and find that it was producing below its installed capacity.

“ Further checks by Advisors Reports revealed that as of November 2024, the plant was producing only 73MW—approximately 15 percent of its installed capacity.

Since commissioning, just the two reactivated units of its four units have been operational, supplying around 225MW to the national grid when gas supply is adequate”.

Hammylawali:
Not all states have the power to run this electricity generation & distribution. A regional grid would have been the best solution to this electricity problem. That way, states can come together to fix and upgrade their power installations or infrastructure
