Lies from the pit of hell why not tell us how our politicians loot our collective wealth, it’s just corruption,why not talk about the cost of governance, why not talk about illegal mining,why not talk about the amount of monies our politicians put if foreign banks ,why not talk about why you forced us to take austerity measures for our economy to recover which has finally damaged our economy and our currency, with subsidy and naira pegged to the usd we had it better

1.I am not opposed to us going solar.

2.Also, the government no longer runs distribution and generation of power, and even the transmission that it runs is dependent on revenue generated from distributuin and generation

3. The cold issue is that because government sets the prices of discos, they cannot access loans from the banks.....because banks always want to see their money back. (Someone like a Dangote was able to get loans from banks because he has lucrative businesses that the banks can take over if he does not pay back on time...).

4. Well, there is the Siemens deal...which may do something a bit. But it won't improve supply by any means. We need to be generating something around 50000 MW before we can talk about good supply of power.

5. The simple point is....if your business had its prices set by government, AND a certain percentage of customers were NOT paying you...how would you make a profit to fix things. Plus, government no longer funds power like before.

I always laugh when I see people call on the companies to reduce their prices for poor people.

Like, suppose I call on the engineers to reduce their fees so that more poor people can afford their servicies. Dem go shout 'no way' tire.


We have a running internet system, and telephony system because at the end of the day, GSM companies were allowed to set their prices. We have a bad power system, because at the end of the day, government sets their prices to low because 'the poor have to breathe'. And 40% of customers do not pay for the light they use. Yes, including meter holders who bypass the thing, and enjoy free power.

At the end if we want 24 hours power, we better pay for 24 hours power, or forget about it.

Just because Igbos/headless say so?

lordimmaogidi:
I don't know why? Tinubu doesn't have a Presidential look/appearance. He doesn't look appealing.

Nyne:
They know that Nigerians are waking up, they want to quickly fix the mark of the beast on Nigerians.

Why is Nigeria the first country . I have never heard them even do such to any European country .

Grow your food yourself , have your own house, create your own electricity, be less dependent on currency

AmazingELixir:
In your logic you think you know better than the crafters of this understanding with the world bank or you are more Nigerian than the government of the day.

Before you start screaming where when nothing is chasing you, this here is the summary of the understanding in the first paragraph,

" The World Bank Country Director for Nigeria, Shubham Chaudhuri, has announced plans to collaborate with the National Identity Management Commission to ensure the successful rollout and registration of digital national IDs for all Nigerians."


The arrangement is intended to assist NIMC upgrade her digital data base in compliance with international standards.

The data will be domiciled in Nigeria and protect by existing extant laws, so don't think a Nigerian government will deliberately compromise her citizens sensitive data internationally.

Take the airline to court,with a good lawyer you can make a serious kill.

However,what will any sane African want to study for in Ukraine at the moment? Even if you are joining the Russian astronaut crew to space station, I wouldn't advise you to go, it is not worth it.

how Powerful was he? Care to explain?
