A power system is said to have entered a state of
voltage instability when a disturbance causes a
gradual and uncontrollable decline in voltage. In
actual sense, voltage collapse can be defined as
instability of a heavily loaded electric power system
network that leads to decrease in voltage level and
eventually blackout Power system collapse has a
severe outcome on the security of the system and
also, it reduces the reliability of the power system
network. There are many reasons for a power system
network to collapse, these can be grouped into two
major group; technical and non-technical cause. The
simple structure of a power system .


In bold not everything we play politics on

If the previous administrations have increased it overtime we won't be here

So take a sit baba is fixing it

There is politics in this and you could not spot it.
The man in charge already gave the reason.someone is not using the generated power but why?
Answer=BDCs would have to lay back the lower they supplied so it's beter not to transmit these powers but still charge it's consumers . Is that not fraud ?
A good solution to this is for the FG to pads a law forcing them BDCs to adopt PYG meters .

The Department of Petroleum Resources has given approval for re-entry into the Gas Reserve at Umuerum in Ayamelum Council Area.
Governor Willie Obiano revealed this when he attended a function of the Catholic Archdiocese of Onitsha at St Mary's Parish, Umuerum.

Governor Obiano who noted that Umuerum is blessed with one of the largest Gas Deposit in the Country, recalled how a multi-national Oil Company, Shell had discovered the Mineral resource 40 years ago and capped it because they were after Premium Motor Spirit, PMS.

He said what is delaying the full exploration of the Gas Reserve is ongoing negotiations with a South African Investor who is to take over the project and expressed the hope that when operational, the project will create lots of jobs and wealth opportunities for people of Ayamelum area.

Governor Obiano observed that due to the large expanse of virgin arable land which the Ayamelum possesses, the area holds great prospects for the future of the state which is being repositioned to anchor on Agriculture, assuring that his government will sustain its support to farmers in the area towards the achievement of its agricultural revolution initiative.

The governor called on people of the area to utilize the Continuous Voter Registration exercise which will take place later in the year to ensure that they are eligible to vote, reminding them that support for his administration will guarantee the realization of all the lofty projects ongoing across the state.

These two comments highlight the problem of Africans: Very religious, superstitious and forming righteous yet don't fail to exhibit their extreme wickedness at any given chance.

Someone rescued a child starved to death by a community of pastors, church goers and pretenders like your kind and the only thing you see are her tattoos and hairstlye. SMH.

This is Harsh , you just took the whole thing out of context . Explanation from you would have gone a long way in the positive sense.If you are not used to tattoos them ones would be scary . Even if you are used to tattoos they are still scary nd that's fact but that do not in any single way take away the fact that the woman in question was doing a service to humanity where others failed.

IMO state should be where IPOB youths hold thier rallies to drive thier points home since this stage is defeating the objectives of BIAFRA . They left that state which is being systematically pulled off by this governor and came to PHChichester no BIAFRA agenda to protest . Ndiigbo can U lot call your Son to order ?
U can not go on rat hunting in another house when your house is full of rats.

jomoh:
They have attacked and kill people in delta. you can search online.

No one should be in support of violence not especially a pastor leading a church.

If he thinks calling for people to attack and kill as a form of reprisal is the answer than he should be ready to dance to the tune of it's consequence or live in hiding like shekau.

Remember shekau and boko haram attacks are reprisal attacks for killing their leader.

Dont you know what happened to them in delta after that?

AntiWailer:
He made a mistake and corrected it.


There is enough evidence to send him to jail. I am sure his lawyers must have told him.

He was caught on tape and he can not deny saying this :



As for the flat heads saying "They can not touch him". That is what they told Nnamdi Kanu. He is still in jail and nothing happened.

so he also corrected the evidence the DSS have?
make una get sense small.Cant you see your hate 4 Christianity has made you to think in a confused and left manner?

ZUBY77:
I live in Guangzhou China, so I think I know more about this than you do.
If you know of any other country with cheaper manufacturing, please tell me

yep there are more cheaper countries
Mexico, India,Turkey,Bangladesh,Vietnam,a, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Ethiopia, Bolivia, Cambodia

these countries have loads of Chinese relocating there to set up plant,In not just talking for talking sake Im not a stranger to LCCS.
SO gone are those days, china is now a leading Nation no more an Emerging mkt, hence the shift but it is a good thing.The Chinese are getting richer, at least you are there you will agree with me on this one

ZUBY77:
Trust me, he knows what he is talking g about.
Of course America manufactures things too.

The Chinese are expert in revers Engineering.They are no longer a cheap manufacturing country as previously thought

Raiders:
America don't manufacture anything. Everything in America is made in China. Even the American iPhone is made in China, America flag is also made in China. Most America company have factories in China because it's cheaper to produce their goods in China. Anyway Trump is planning to stop America companies from producing their goods in China and Mexico. Also Chinese products are not really bad. It's our Nigeria importers who order inferior and cheap goods from China.

we have to be carful when genralizing,America manufacture loads of stuff.But I guess you dont know.

Saintp:
Yes, you are right but they would also take part of the blame. The Americans and Europeans will never manufacture substandard goods no matter what. It is because they are as greedy as Nigerians, that is why they can be persuaded to produce fake. Where is their values? Like Nigerians like Chinese joor

who told you so,You have to speak of only waht you are sure of, there are more fakes in the west than in Africa cos its more profitable.
Y do U think we have trading standards in teh UK

Origin:
I don't know who to blame whether its SON . But the standard of China imports is deplorable. Ordinary sewing thread that I bought the other day was so fragile and was cutting anyhow. Still the thread was not firmly bonded and was splitting into two.

And that is just thread. If I start with electronics we no go leave here today.

hahah U know, we need real education.China dont make fake goods rather its your brothers who do, they are the ones who go there to tell teh manufacturer what they want,

Lifestone:
Everybody especially Leaders should watch what they say. This is surely how Rwanda genocide began, from the killings in Southern Kaduna to the killings of the Fulanis, non is justifiable. All life matters.
I am shocked at some comments and wonder how we descended this low as a people.
For Apostle, I hope he will learn a lot from this, leaders must not allow emotions to be expressed. If this degenerate, he will get a date with ICC in Hague along will Fulani sponsors.
Incidentally, non of you supporting him now will be there to bail him out.

HOW PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN, NYESOM WIKE PREVENTED & BLOCKED RIVERS STATE GOVERNMENT FROM TAKING POSSESSION OF THE CONTROVERSIAL HELICOPTERS- AMAECHI

Our attention has been drawn to misrepresentations and innuendoes as it concerns the immediate past Governor of Rivers State and current minister of Transportation Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi in the purchase and importation of two helicopters into Nigeria that was supposedly abandoned at the Murtala Mohammed International airport, Lagos. To set the records straight, we wish to state the following facts:

1. Recall that when Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi took over as Governor of Rivers State, criminals masquerading as militants, kidnappers and all other criminal elements were on the prowl in Rivers State. With a strong political will to tackle these menaces and make the State a safe place, Amaechi initiated a lot of measures to deal with the menace. Purchasing these helicopters was one of the measures the Amaechi administration took to curb the clandestine and criminal activities in the state. And the decision to go for these helicopters was based on the advice and recommendation of security experts and specialists that were working closely with our Nigerian security agents to rid the state of these criminals- kidnappers, pipeline vandals, vicious political cultists etc.

2. Sequel to the recommendation of security experts, the Rivers State Government bought the two Bell 412 security surveillance helicopters during the administration of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, in collaboration with the federal government through the office of the National Security Adviser (NSA). The federal government then was very impressed with the Amaechi administration’s security plan to curb criminality in the State and supported the plan all the way. To show their support, the Federal government through the office of the NSA contributed $15M (Fifteen Million Dollars), about half of the total sum, towards the purchase of the helicopters. Also, the then former President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration granted waivers to the Rivers State government to purchase and import the helicopters.

3. However, trouble started many months later when the helicopters became ready for the Rivers State Government to take possession of them and use them to fight crime and the criminals in the land and creeks of the State. The President Goodluck Jonathan administration frustrated and rebuffed all attempts by Amaechi and the Rivers State government to take possession of the helicopters. Note that the said helicopters were partly funded by the federal government and that would be operated and managed by federal security agencies in collaboration with the Rivers State government.

4. This strange twist was most baffling to the Rivers State government. Many would recall that, Amaechi as Governor of Rivers State at different times cried out and spoke loudly about the refusal of the President Goodluck Jonathan administration to allow the Rivers State government take possession of the security surveillance helicopters. It was about security, the safety of lives and property, but the Jonathan administration refused and bluntly blocked the Rivers State government from taking possession of the helicopters. The same helicopters the federal government had months back, partly funded and had granted approvals and waivers for the purchase and importation into the country.

5. It was obvious why the President Goodluck Jonathan administration acted the way it did and Nyesom Wike, the present Governor of Rivers State was an integral part, a major player in the whole conspiracy to block and prevent Rivers State government from taking possession of the helicopters. Then, as a minister in President Jonathan’s cabinet, Wike inundated President Jonathan with lies and fake stories of how then Governor Amaechi wanted to use the helicopters for Presidential campaigns against Jonathan, how Amaechi will use the helicopters to support President Jonathan’s opponents before and during the presidential elections and all sorts of concocted tales that created a false impression that the Amaechi government in Rivers State would use the helicopters against and to fight President Jonathan, and not to secure lives and property.

6. Wike then, was already nursing the ambition to run for the office of Governor of Rivers State, he didn’t care about the security of lives and property, his grand plot was to use the criminals, political cultists and criminal militants to harass, intimidate, terrorize, maim and even kill his political opponents and those that refused to support or vote for him before, during and after the elections. Wike knew early that he needed these criminal elements to rig his way to Rivers State government House, so he did everything to ensure that these criminals will be always available for him to use.

7. It is worrisome and indeed pathetic that Governor Nyesom Wike as usual, is again playing politics with the safety and security of Rivers people. The helicopters were procured by the Amaechi administration to curb the wanton menace of criminals in the State (which has since worsened under Wike’s watch), but in his usual habit, Governor Wike has decided to abandon and dump the helicopters, because he does not care about the safety and security of lives and property in the State. Sad, very sad.

these people shaaaa, so if the helicopters belonged to Rivers why then did they make it look like it was imported like Niger Delta Avengers cos they seem to be faceless.

NB

More than 50% of items from China are substandard, second to Made in ABA.

U need real EDUCATION.

davodyguy:
If this is the case, why the so much pressure on dollars?

All that needs to happen to to use Chinese currency for these transactions, hence $1.6b is saved from being exchanged, thereby reducing the pressure on dollars.

Simple and straight forward

ahah its a myth, control system i n place, there are groups of individuals benefiting from the dollar blockade, they are ripping Nigerians apart.

44chux:
It is installed with some kind of baseplate designed for that purpose. Personally I have time-tested this in the past without issues. Any problem arising will have to be caused by a quack installer.

Also industrial safety mandates all pressurized bottles to be stacked upright. Except this is achieved in the trunk, it will be safer inside the cabin.

Yeh but Industrial safety does not mandate us to carry a fire extinguisher in our cars unless its a HGV/LDV or any public/emergency and utility vehicle.Its these stupid leaders in Nigeris who always like to put the cath B4 the horse.

dancok:
Pls when i on ac i notice my accelerator don't really pick. As in the car don't go fast as it use to be.

In a lay man language, you car has no power to support both your AC and its motor.

spyder880:
The current market prices in my location of some iron rods in pieces are as follows ;
16mm N4800
12mm N2800
8mm N1400

If you consider that I bought these same materials on the 16th of this January 2017 for

16mm N3200
12mm N1850
8mm N950

then you cannot afford not to shout "Nigeria we hail thee" This is like a 50% jump in only one week.

Advance planning for any project is dead. Giving a quotation for a time exceeding 3 days before payment is futile. Being owed is like losing money. But how can you tell those you have agreed to a fixed price that you can no longer start the project at the agreed price, after just one week?

Which way Nigeria?

16mm N4800 .u joking right

44chux:
Putting it under the seat is asking for trouble as it has been known to cause/escalate accidents!!!
This happens when driver sudenly brakes and the extinguisher bottle launches forward and lodges under the peddals.

Ideally it should be mounted upright by the seat belt corner. Thats why the car extinguisher actually comes with a mountable plastic hanger. Funny enough this is old school knowledge and was same method used by my grandparents in their peigeot 504 saloon and other commercial taxis back in the day.

You are quite correct but the point you just raised about it lunching 4ward is scary but true
Then again mounting it by the Centre pillar of one's car is one of the reasons we should not have fire extinguishers in cars except the are HGV . That centre pillar houses the seat belt mechanism . Tampering with that will amount to one reducing the safety of the car.beside fire extinguishers are compressed gases and powder so we should truly amd realy not be ha ING 5 hem in our cars . Emergency vehicles abroad who carry compressed gas of any type have to display a green sign in thier car showing the sign for compressed has.

Originalsly:
Hmmm.... I think the only need to carry an extinguisher is to comply with the law... and the best place is in the trunk. But really...who can testify about ever putting out a fire or seeing or hearing about anyone putting out a car fire using the extinguisher? Yes....due to faulty wiring a fire has started somewhere in the engine... what do you do?....open the hood to get at the fire?..... you would be wayyyy more likely to get burn than outing the fire. Racing cars... yes...passenger cars no....but...it is the law.

Really .so say the fire is at the Gas tank?

abatically:
So with car insurance means no need for fire extinguisher? Smh. Ur car might catch fire and u have some valuable documents to retrieve, a fire extinguisher can make it possible for u to retrieve those documents or do u think insurance company will do that for u? Hell someone might get stuck in a burning car and fire extinguisher can save his life or do u think insurance company will save that life for u?

Some times we have to get educated and what we are thinking and saying.the guy you quoted is right . Best practice is spot a fire RUN AWAY .
If you are in you car and the unspeakable happens you are meat to abandon the car and not to risk your life in the name of putting out the fire .
Reason :U are not trained to deal with fires . In your bid to put out the fire car may explode and burn or mame you.
As per important Docs . You can always get them again or swear affidavit to that effect .

connkg:
I have searched NL Car Talk, but didn't find a previous thread on this. FRSC officers here present, I have decided to relocate my extinguisher from the trunk to underneath the driver's seat, in hope that I have the presence of mind to remember in an emergency.
Most burning cars (fuel, not electrical) begin either in front of or behind the car cabin.
Valid point?

This is mine

NOETHNICITY:
@op, pls let me know if am wrong.
One very gud reason I think its NT the best foR a car when put on park mode in slopE, is that u re suspending the weight of the car on the gear instead of the brakes.
I think this subjects the gear to undue wear.

I think you are on about something different . If it's parking on a slop you are on about then the correct way is to park . Put gear on nutral and steer your wheels to the kerb .

PaperLace:
Wow. Never knew this, thanks.

I would repent from today... it's the traffic situation in Nigeria that's making us do like this. All this our follow-me-bumper-to-bumper kinda traffic, one gats be ready to move.

Ahaha I do same in Nigeria too . Even in the UK I do same but it's not best practice . We are not robot and cannot be always correct .

SirJeffry:
I'm used to putting cars in neutral at red lights that I now find it hard to stop. This is because I had a manual BMW for a long time. I heard that act is not good for the transmission, don't know if its true or not. I haven't seen such thing in any of my car manuals.

That's the right thing to do .manual or auto.

Lie lie Governor
Amaechi bought those helicopters for pipe line surveillance but the vindictive ineffectual Buffon GEJ refused to release them.

https://www.google.com.ng/amp/www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/ssouth-east/129199-we-bought-two-helicopters-but-for-security-reasons-governor-amaechi-says.html/amp

Wike came on board and tried to collect them and was asked to pay the demurage and due to his lack of vision decided to forfeit it to FG

Just the way he refused to acknowledge Amaechi so also is the FG not acknowledging him.

All that trash you vomited there has no bearing.what you quoted is exaxtly what Wike said. U just have to bring in the name of GEJ . He already said the FG refused waivery he was a wiser man not to say PMB .
