Nigeria's generation capacity is about 7,000MW.. Certainly not 11,000... But that is not relevant because we can't power many plants.
Thanks for the correctiOn. I meant to say installed capacity which is a different stat from generation capacity.

If only we had enough gas pipes to power these plants.

arresa:
And power generation under OBJ hit 5000MW so what rubbish GEJ are you talking about?

If it was 5000MW under OBJ, so why was it still 5000MW under GEJ?

You are obviously telling us GEJ did not add 1 single MW..


Must you people lie and peddle silly 419 rubbish?
There's something you are missing which is that generation capacity is a different stat from actual generation. Mostly due to lack of gas, vandalism and poor planning we've never been able to generate 100% of our capacity.

Your quote says 5000MW installed during OBJ's regime but that doesn't mean they were able to generate 5000MW.

Now, GEJ left us with 11000MW generation capacity.

Actually, you are the one who made an a*** of yourself... In most parts of the world even developed countries, women are generally paid less for doing d same work. Pls carry out a little research
That's their issue. Do you have an instance where women are paid lower for the same position as men here in Nigeria?

You just have to look back far enough. Obasanjo did start the bridge.

https://structurae.net/structures/benue-bridge

General Information

Beginning of works: 2005
Completion: 2007
Status: project phase
Project Type

Structure: Girder bridge
Function / usage: Road bridge
Location

Location: Oweto, Benue, Nigeria
Loko, Nassarawa, Nigeria
Crosses: Benue

Source: https://structurae.net/structures/benue-bridge
I think there's a difference between what Government conceptualized the bridge and what Government actually awarded the contract to commence work.

For example, the Mambilla hydro project has been On paper for more than 20 years now.

The link shared clearly stats the contract was awarded in 2011/2012.

Car TalkRe: The Major Cause Of Tyre Burst Accidents In Nigeria ( Pictures Included ) by Iolo(m): 12:06pm On Apr 29, 2016
ashley26:
I just bought four brand new tires yesterday (A Three - 205 by 65) and it is boldly written on them that the air pressure should be 44psi. What should I do considering the fact that what is written on my car is not up to that.
Usually...what's written on tires is the Maximum PSI the tire was manufactured to accept. As you know tire manufactures make tires to fit different car brands and models so it's more likely your car's PSI won't be up to 44. I strongly suggest you go with what the car manufacturer recommends.

Hello,

We're sorry: We can't find that car
Was the car manufactured before 1981? Then it doesn't have the VIN we need to find the answers you're looking for.
Is the car brand new? It may be so new that there are no records currently on file. Check back soon, once it's had some time on the road.
Thanks...it's for a Toyota Camry 2007.

Car TalkThinking Of Buying A Camry Muscle. What Are The Pros And Cons? by Iolo(op): 9:29am On Mar 05, 2016
This would be my first car even though I've been driving for years and know quite a bit about car maintenance and repairs.

What are the things I should watch for to avoid buying a lemon?

I'm also struggling to decide between a well maintained Naija used and a tokunbo? I can afford a tokunbo but I'm thinking if a clean Naija-used that has been used by a lady and properly maintained could help save some extra cash.

Also is the I4 better than the v6? Is it a durable car and how fuel efficient is it?

I have a friend that has the same car I4 version and does Ajah to Ikoyi to and fro daily yet spends 6k on fuel weekly. I've always felt this is outrageous but is this typical?
PoliticsRe: Supreme Court Faults INEC For Partisan Role In Election Petition Cases by Iolo(m): 10:07am On Feb 27, 2016
bandol:
What the judges don't know is that INEC will always stand firmly behind whoever they declare winner. So that it won't appear as if they make d declaration in error
This I believe this is the conundrum INEC is faced with. If they choose to stand with the party they declared as winner they could be said to be partisan. And if they choose to stay neutral it clearly shows they arent confident in the election they organized.

It's a bit tough but I don't see anything wrong in INEC leading some of these appeals.

AaronDonald:
My little brother set his iPhone back to 1970 because of his curiosity, then this behavior bricked his iPhone. cry What's a awkward thing! Then I called him to go to Apple Store for help, because I don't want to disassemble battery cover and make power break. Because Apple has a high safety performance about hardware. Non-official service may trigger what Apple sees as a illegitimate behavior. Anybody has some other good ways?
Tell him to leave it turned on till the battery goes flat. He should then charge it for a bit and on restart the phone resets the time and should be fine.
