29kobo: 1.The transmission system is in a bad state. It needs fixing. Problem is, it costs a lot of money...far more than what government has.
2.Distribution and generation are not allowed to set prices. Under a riddiculous set of clauses in the law governing their set up, their price is set for them by government. As a result, they run at a loss, government subsides (paid for in part by loans) are not enough, and there is no political will to let them charge cost reflective tarrifs.
This means not enough profit, not enough investment...nothing to expand generation and transmission at all. Even if we transmitted all the 13000MW we have and can produce...remember that Lagos alone needs 10000MW for 24 hour power supply, seven days a week, and it needed that in 2010. No more electricity subsidy |

Good evening Nairalander, The rain yesterday and of course human factors caused heavy traffick on the road. I used to park my car in one of my friends compound after it was vandalized three months ago. However, I couldn't park there yesterday, because it was too late. Therefore, I then decided to drive it home, and parked it on the street where I use to park it. I mean the location where it was vandalized. I got home 12:38am, because of fear of vandalism, I guard my car from 12:38am to 6am, before going to bed by 6:30am. It wasn't easy for me going out today, because I didn't have enough rest. My advice: Before you buy Corolla (Uber standard) you must have a safe place to park it. Link to when my car was vandalized: https://www.nairaland.com/7128850/toyota-corolla-vandalized

Romance › Re: She Loves You But You Don't Feel Same Way, Yet You Keep Using Her? That's Risky by gevans(m): 6:53pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
MadeINchenzen2: Lemme explain what I mean...
Guys: If you've gained any experience in previous relationships you should understand exactly what I am talking about.... and if you are a newbie in this relationship thing... Read inbetween the lines of this quick thread.
A typical male gender will always look to exploit and take advantage of a lady who's in love with him especially when he does not feel exactly desame way about her.
Listen... a woman who's in love can be very dangerous, when I say dangerous, I mean dangerous enough to the point of sticking a sharp knife into your gut while you are sleeping... killing you.
A woman in love can as well do anything to show and express it to you, she would slave for you if she has to... but understand that she has to sacrifice everything she has preserved almost all her life until she met you, she had to let her guards down and shattered all her walls for you to come through... sometimes she gave up her most reserved and treasured virtue and dignity just for you... she emptied herself, lost herself and practically poured her life into you because you've formed a very important part of her existence.
If a woman loves you and you know she's not lying about it, but you don't feel same way, the best thing to do is to leave, try to let her know quickly.
That would be the matured thing to do, don't see it as an easy pass to mess her up and dump her.
Most guys haven't had it nice after they abused the love of a woman towards them. Most women are still on a revenge mission because of that and they become almost cold and hardened until they have you suffer desame pain.
A woman doesn't heal easily as Most guys would, especially if she's in love... Thanks for sharing |

Travel › Re: Lagos Commuters React To New BRT Fares by gevans(m): 10:40am On Jul 18, 2022*. Modified: 11:11am On Jul 18, 2022 |
Fare was increased by 100% (from 2020) yet buses won't come on time. Passengers fighting themselves for limited seats, Ikorodu Terminal, Ojota b/s, Oshodi Terminal and Fadeyi is the hqs of BRT fights. They increase fare, still most time you have more standing passenger on a bus.
Some validator will deduct N600 to retund N200 for N400 journey, sometimes you may not be able to tap out to get your refund. They will tell to visit their customer service. How many people have that time? Their Customer service is not even effective.
Fare increment won't be an issue if passengers get value for their money.
In summary, BRT Operators need to up their game, and Ikorodu route should be deregulated (more operators)

Benesis: A tragedy is termed as the best form of writing because after loosing one takes out time to think of whqt and what went wrong, and then works on fixing them.
Adeleke lost the last time, and tok out time to get a certificate and then cement his popularity.
Oyetola won, and basked in the winning for four years and the bigger than life feeling he got made him go to war with his Gafer.
With the Win, PDP will undermine the importance of Wike, wereas APC will see the importance of spreading their tentacles and not counting on the masive support of the South west.
In all PDP should not let the win get into their heads as Adeleke is a very popular candidate, LP should see this as a reason to build bridges and get political topshots with grassroot supports to buy the dream. And APC can now learn to not rely on the vote buying apparatus they may plan, but devise means on selling foresight and antecedents of their candidate.
Osun was interesting, 2023 will be more interesting..Over and out You made some salient points up there |
