This is same MTN charging 50K for SIM and N50 minute call, thanks to Glo the country got per second billing. At that time also Empty Hen said per sec billling not possible

Lone warrior , Glo made so much sense, strongly putting point across."Globacom, however, said floor pricing should be left to market forces and not to the regulator. (http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/217251-whatsapp-viber-others-adversely-affecting-business-nigeria-mtn.html)

imagine the murder case that happened on monday has been solved already,even US never solve case wey fit stay for months even decades to solve for 9ja police nobody has that time. The rate 9ja police take dey solve case with suspects confessing dey fear me.
the truth is that our police force is very inept if not, most of the criminals we have here are actually not that smart. most criminals in this part leave a lot of evidence behind that can easily be retrieved through forensics. Also simple cell triangulation which has been perfected in many climes can easily lead you to the hideouts of these criminals.

PoliticsRe: CBN Illegally Funding Buhari’s Government, Says Sanusi by ernieboy(m): 10:42pm On Dec 02, 2016
Doyin2:
A lot of people on Nairaland have comprehension challenges.


All the issues raised by Sanusi had been there long before Buhari came to power.


Did major spending on recurrent expenditure rather than capital ,start with Buhari? NO.Could the trend be reversed within 2 years?No.Not even withing 4 years!

Was the bulk of the N4,7 trillion debt incurred during Buhari's government? NO.I disagree with Sanusi on this,perhaps he had been misquoted.

Sanusi did recognise the fact that the drop in oil price contributed to our current predicament,decline in economic growth..Was this within Buhari's control? No.


Sanusi was referring to the FG(Past and present) and not BUhari as a person.

The truth about Nigeria's economic recession (only genuine economist would understand) is that even the best economists in the world can not avert or reverse it in the short term.You can sack the whole ministers and even buhari and bring in new people,the problem would still be there,at least in the short run.

Let Sanusi give us his own right policies, whether it would not follow the same fate,at least in the short run,without a fundamental rise in oil price and out put.

It took Obama about 7 years to reverse the misfortune of USA even at that ,the country, with the best economists in the world has not fully recovered from recession.We would be damn lucky if our own recovery comes faster,without the rise in oil price and out put.truth is very bitter!


Those wishing death for Buhari might not even be around before the end of his tenure!
yeah, yeah it took Obama donkey years to revive U.S. economy blah blah blah. but Americans were aware of his plan, his roadmap and policies. Buhari has no economic plan or at least most Nigerians are unaware of it.

lond07:
You made me laugh in vernacular grin grin grin

The reality is it happens everywhere. I went to university abroad and was a victim. I missed finishing as First Class student by 0.2. I got a total of 69.48%. Going by the school regulation, any mark from 69.50 will be rounded up to 70 and awarded 1st class. So you can imagine my pain that I missed 1st class because a randy lecturer was determined to take a revenge on me while I was innocent.

It happened that he has been harassing a fellow female student who happened to be a friend. This lecturer imagined we were in a relationship and reasoned that I was the reason why this lady did not agree to sleep with him. In fact he offered to pay the hotel bills but this lady would not give in. All along she never mentioned it to me that this lecturer was tormenting her until when we all finished. Then she revealed all, including this randy guy groping her on one occasion. She said I must have noticed, despite the fact that I was very good in his course, he was always hostile to me. She mentioned a couple of fellow female students who confided in her that they had to do his bidding before they could pass.

It was a long story, but that says it all, that it happens abroad.

That you do not support someone at the primaries does not mean you "vehemently oppose" them. Some people courts Tinubu's support in 2012 too before he decides to support Akeredolu.
There is a Yoruba adage that says when the mouth eats, the eye should have some shame. Being ungrateful is not what the Yorubas are trained to be.
Do you know that Mimiko did the same thing that Akeredolu is doing now to Tinubu? After receiving Tinubus support at some point, they turn around to denigrate him. How did Mimiko ends up today? People should think deep and have insights into issues.
We are saying all this, not because of today, but because of tomorrow.
are u insinuating that mimikos chosen candidate did not win because mimiko was not appreciative of tinubu? BTW there are insinuations that he was a sellout to APC to avoid efcc probe the gov elect has already promised not to probe him( that is one of the key reasons for wanting to pick a successor). I don't think mimiko has anything to regret.

Mr governor elect, please I think you should learn from history, the outgoing governor Mimiko, also started like this, it was obvious Tinubu was instrumental to his mandate been reclaimed but immediately he took over, he showed his other side of being a chamelon.He never listened to any word of wisdom from the elders such as Tinubu.Today I hope you know where he is.
May be I should bring to your notice that the coming to Ondo by Dangote to site rifenery here, was on the impectus of Tinubu that all see in Ondo as someone who want to take away their resources, but our dear Mimiko wants to bite more than the owner, and it is obvious to all where the rifenery is sited presently.You may ask me the source of this information, kindly consult the open letter written by Chief Adebayo of Ekiti to the Jagaban.
Don't allow sycophant to derail what God want you to achieve, the time has just started counting, 4yrs is like a seconds.
it was tinubu that brought dangote to ondo for the proposed refinery? where sis you gat that misinformation from?

...If in Yoruba land ,IFA is consulted to choose

If IFA (power of divinity) is consulted to choose a king in Yoruba land, then you will see the reason for godfatherism, though truth may tarry but time will tell. I had expected you to tell me President Buhari is the godfather of Akeredolu as it stand. “TInubu" has a golden sight, you don't know this, do you?, the Lagos State that many of you run to is the making of Tinubu because God anointed him as a political Yoruba leader. So don't inform wrongly. I hold to my beliefs because it belong to a higher school of thought than yours which you don't belong and you will never understand. As simple as ABC
"Lagos state that many of you run to is the making of tinubu"

Guy I always make effort to sound courteous but the statement above is one if the most ignorant statements I have read. how is Lagos state, a former capital territory build with Federal revenue from across the country the making of one man? Lagos was already a commercial hub long before tinubu became a governor. how did tinubu make Lagos?

If you are a politician or a leader in any organization who has contributed immensely to your party and then experience a gang up attack I am sure you will not talk like this, beyond the information on the media, there is always a tradition that if you are a leader, if you are not honored in any other regions, they must honor your opinion in your own house(Southwest). This is not the first time Tinubu will be humiliated in this government, have you forgotten Saraki/ Dogora's game? What about selection of ministers, how about Edo state and most of the insult in his Own region, "who will they be killing gradually and will not react?" I beg leave Tinubu alone and morn the destruction that comes on APC, Buhari and Hausa dominated government.

Donbigi2:
If at all everyone will use meter, I see profit in it, here is why:
All exchange rate are at 396/dollar

Cost to power = $12960000.00 per year
Convert to naira=5132160000
If it gives light offer 12hrs we can say it generates 5132160000/2 = N2566080000
Let's say they bought diesel for 150 naira per liter =N4950000 per day (150x33000)
Let's say it supply's light for 12hrs only =
4950000 x 15 (half of 30days equivalent of 12hrs per day)
=N74250000
1yr will cost =891000000

Profit for the yr= 1, 675, 080, 000
Let's say 600 000 000 is cost of maintenance nd workers salary

Profit is 1 075,080,000

Cost of generator = 3 800 000 000
Within 3yrs they should get their capital back..
This would have been profitable if at all the north uses meter for electricity (19 naira per kwa)
Sadly they pay Nepa bill manually (highest 1k per month, even at 3k per month it is not sustainable)
here is a more comprehensive analysis.
the current cost of elec in Nig. is about 19 naira. but remember that both transmission and distribution have a cut in that 19 naira but for the purpose of simplicity let's assume the gen plant gets the entire 19 naira per kW.

cost of 1 mW of power------ 19 x 1000(1000 kW make 1 mW)=19000 naira

cost of 38 mW daily output------- 38 x 19000=732000 naira per day

cost of diesel 33000 litres @ 100 naira per litre( conservative subsidized estimate)------33000 x 100=3,300,000 daily

bottom line------- daily revenue(732000) - daily cost (3.3 million) = -2,568,000 (daily loss)

note this analysis is based on the gen plant getting the entire 19 naira per kW which is not possible because trans and distribution will collect a cut

also the analysis is based on a subsidized 100 per litre of diesel.

No need to feed it to the national grid again ..I am tired of that lame law ..let it be used to power sokoto city which will automatically make more power available on the national grid
spot on. this idea of sending on a round trip round the nation is unwise because there will be power loss in transmission it should just be consumed locally making the state require less power from the grid. we really need to get our power policy right.

These are interesting figures. If just N3.8billion could build a 30mw gas/diesel plant, then I would assume N38 billion can build a 300mw plant and N380billion (~$1bn) can build a 3000mw plant.

If these above figures are real, one begins to wonder how OBJ spent $16billion and GEJ spent about $8billion, yet power generation capacity is still not up to 6000mw.


This is one bloody expensive venture to operate, reason Nigeria should forget the initial capital cost and consider solar power.

[size=2pt]Attn: Lalasticlala[/size]
this seems to just be a glorified diesel generator. how sustainable will it be If it is run on diesel except they are going to be getting diesel at a subsidized rate I doubt if they will break even at 24 naira per kW. gas would have been a better alternative but again piping gas to the plant is going to be problematic and it will also be face with pipeline vandalism which is currently plaguing the other power plants.
