What we have though is that we make an artificial dam in river Osun, buy turbines and make it work. On the second thought, there are turbines that can work under large water bodies eg Atlantic ocean couple with the Eko atlantic. We can use this to generate electricity as well. I am a reseach student and I calculated that it is very possible and economical valuable.

Also assuming it is not, we can start looking at coal in Ogun and Oil in lagos and Ondo to use thermal energy. All this are options that can be done under the current situation of this country but Nigerians are not ready for such.

One of the problems we encountered was how to get enough capital to power the SW power sector. The solution we though off was to start this company in Abuja and Osun or Ekiti because of the low population and high population wealthy people. By such, we can generate enough capital to build more power plans  for Nigeria and SW in particular.

My team consist of igbos BTW so he also suggested to start in Lagos but I though he is not being realistic because the population of Lagos and the amount of houses in Lagos can not be supported when starting.

We should be objective in analysis and pick holes in his analysis and not his person per se. I dont see anything wrong in what he wrote here, in fact everything tallies up with what we hear in Nigeria and the results released. He gives us insight into how rigging is done at collation centers which is the truth.

Can't we all just get along?

Jarus:
But the character of Nigerian politics has been changed forever. We are now openly more divided along a religious and ethnic divide which shall come to haunt us in future. Corruption remains, the all-powerful party contractors and fixers are still in-charge and Jonathan has shown his other, truer side. He may very well succeed in fixing our electricity but at huge, unjustifiable costs. Next time around we may not just have 90 to 100 percent voter turnout in South-South, but we could very well have double the registered voters actually voting for PDP. But we shall, God willing, survive these next four or eight years.

Lagosboy:
Thanks for the link it is also on NVS.

People just like to read what they want to hear. The election process was better than 2007 and JEGA gave us a good process. However, the election was rigged in the SE, SS and north which means it is not free and fair.

Was Goodluck the President in 1991 when I watched as a young sch gurl my classmate's house go up in flames with the entire family in the burning house and my mom and I had to walk/run on dead bodies to be secure.
Was GEJ president in 1995 when my father's cars, house and my eldest sister all got burnt in another crazy out break of riots.My daddy stil has scars frm matchete wounds he got in one of such outbursts
In 1983, my family stil tel the sordid story of maitatsine's violence!
Relax buddie, you voted right. Sacking that minister was in the rite direction. Every average Nigerian knew the northernerz would revolt,it was the duty of that office to nip it in the bud. I believe strongly that the positive change we so desire would be heralded by GEJ

It is also evident that the ACN and ANPP were in some kind of covert alliance with the PDP so it is likely that their presidential candidates and key officers will be offered cabinet positions in the Jonathan administration, thus leaving CPC as the last opposition party standing. This is an opportunity for the party to build its organization nationally and govern the handful of states it is likely to win, competently.
