PoliticsRe: Man Beats Up IKEDC Staff For Distributing Bills Without Constant Electricity by Culin(f): 4:22pm On Feb 01, 2017
9jakohai:
Actually I work in the human services field....and I am not a PHCN staff (I even had an issue with them 18 months ago over prepaid meter vs estimated bill....and ended up with estimated bill much to my annoyance.).

I am merely making the point that if we want improved services...we have to pay our power bills. (And by the way, that includes some Govt agencies and parastatals).

Or we beg PMB to go to the World bank and take a loan for....oh well....N5 trillion naira , just for power sector.Guess who pays the debt back?
Yes i understand. But is it until we sell our houses and cars to pay electricity bills that things will improve? Because the outrageous sum they're collecting for not providing electricity should be able to cover up for the few that don't pay. Besides i think there's enough government money hidden in some people's pockets, so very few persons not paying is not an excuse for poor power supply.

shocked shocked really? Now you've made me curious. Can you give me half gist abeg? smiley
Nothing serious. She just makes this 'be quite' hand gesture that mutes everyone around her or she shouts on the phone like he's calling from space. Worse, before she answers the phone she'll be like 'my husband is calling me, move away' in idoma. As if someone was dragging her husband with her. Lol.

Sadly, PHCN also needs the money from the bills to make improvements so that you can have light 24/7.

Indeed one big reason why the DISCOS, GENCOS and TCN cannot guarantee light is because most Nigerians do not pay their light bills at all.

Even the prepaid meter that was supposed to end pay dodgers....people bypass them so that they can get free light.

And as a result...there is no money to buy new equipment, no money to upgrade existing equipment, and no money to even expand the power supply.

Thanks to privatisation, which most Nigerians did not oppose...the onus is even more on us to pay for our light. We cannot refuse to pay for light because they have not given us light at all. That means that there would be no money not only for power infrastructure improvement...but also no money for staff salaries too. And DISCO/GENCO workers are Nigerians like you...who also have bills to pay, and lives to maintain.

We may look at this man who beat up DISCO staff as a hero. We may even encourage more people to go ahead and commit acts of violence against DISCO staff....but remember....the reason why we do not have power is because we refuse to pay our bills.

Am sure the man who beat up the staff would complain if his working place did not give him his salary. He would complain that it prevents him from being an effective worker.Why then do we insist on making power supply inefficient for all....by refusing to pay our bills.

Sorry.....but Ozoigbo Ikenna and people like him ARE the reason why you Nigerian people do not have light.

Please...pay your bills. OK?
PHCN staff spotted

CelebritiesRe: Professor Adetoye Apologises To 2face 2baba Idibia by Culin(f): 11:04am On Feb 01, 2017
fiercehillz:
I am happy because 2baba is the celebrity involved. This guy has seen it all in life, from criticism, rising, falling to resurrection. No other celebrity in Nigeria can absorb such shocks n still remain relevant. So I am not surprised because I have been waiting for him to pull this stunt since 2012. This dude has evolved beyond the status of an artist or celebrity to that of a culture...yeah I said "culture". If 2baba could come through successfully come Feb 5th, his way of life, art, sportsmanship and diplomacy would definitely be studied in class rooms. Ask his non-jealous colleagues and they will confirm it.

#istandwith2baba
He's starting a revolution! I can't wait. Somebody is finally speaking out.

Men. I don't understand or know what you want exactly. Well, just tell her so she can move on with someone better and you move on with your baby mama, because you can't leave her hanging. Nope. Baby mama should also be wify.
