Why do you people only consider the cost the customers will pay without considering the economic opportunity cost we suffer without stable electricity?
Do you know that Nigeria losses billions of dollars in investments yearly due to no stable electricity?
A country of 200million people is a market of its own. It can attract investments if the right infrastructure is put in place. Stable power is that number one infrastructure followed by a good transport system. You need to research to open your eyes on how much our economy is suffering from because of our lack of stable power.
Countries only regulate tariffs below cost if they have the financial capacity to fully develop and support it. Nigeria govt cannot solely fund the power industry to full development which was why they privatised it. But keeping tariffs below cost has made their privatisation efforts to be in futility because the low tariffs and the losses is the major issue keeping investors away from the sector.

Stable power can create more jobs that will lift those from Kwara, logo, Niger, Nasarrawa etc out of poverty that wouldn't be possible if tariff isn't increased.

Naijafull19:
There IS a subsidy...that's why prices are being set by NERC....

The problem is that NERC is keeping prices low...too low below the production costs.

And one thing government can do is sign a law that stops NERC from setting prices...instead of taking over the DISCOS and GENCOS willy nilly....because that does not solve the problem of power operating at a loss.

kayusely70:
Those who bought PHCN had no technical knowledge they are politicians who used their positions to corner the power sector.

Karemarealty288:
I see reasons with him. The business is not sustainable.

JAWBONE:
See how this man has reduced himself to garbage because of politics. If not for Okada, millions of people, businesses will be brought to a standstill. After how many years of BRT, there are routes in Lagos that they have still not covered, a brilliant idea that will help in reducing pressure on public transport but because of slavery politics Igbokwe has lost his ability to reason

INTROVERT:
Opay has pursued them out of the market. How can 500million gokada compete with 500million opay. They better restrategize fast before O pay buys them up.

NigPatriot:
Oride came with over 100million dollars of capital, offered consumers 200 naira per ride. Why won't Gokada go for recess...
Forget this life the cheat code to almost anything is money..

Khaleell001:
That's the reason most companies don't do quality checks on their products because we would rather swallow poison that is cheap than pay for a healthy fruit juice that is cost.

Our attitude generally is really toxic and off putting.

I commend the gokada CEO of he still carries out his intention.
He is indeed a worthy example.

safarigirl:
This is something that should be commended

He went into the field, noticed setbacks and has chosen to address them, rather than leave them as they are. He understands the importance of quality to the integrity of a business

Most Nigerian CEOs do not understand this. They just sit in some Air Conditioned office and sign papers, without bothering to find out if their policies are being implemented properly. They are so detached from their own business, they might as well not run it.

Xyz001:
Am I the only one that is feeling this is a cooked up story.
You took a ride and you ate disappointed at the service your company provides to your customers.
You decide to shut down same day.
Re-train your staff in 12 days
Buy new and sexy bike in 12 days
Provide better service in 12 days.
Please how many day did he take to plan all these
Did he thinks he is talking to fools.
When did he scheduled the money he will spend in the next 12 days

TSRC:
Opay is owned by opera. Invested 100 million greens.

Hard to compete against that kind of capital.

MurderEnglish:
This is one of the best moves a Nigerian start-up has done. I had to read the unfiltered article by the co-CEO himself.

Your product has to satisfy you first before another person.

Oride will never and can not beat out Gokada with this their mundane mode of operation.

Gokada riders are far better than Oriders, though both are crooks.

Let's see how this pans out, and I wish them honestly, the very best

post=81260848:
This look like a very gold and serious company who know what they are doing
[]RATHER LATE THAN SORRY![/b]
All the very best guys.

Lazy Youths complaining of hunger, go register and get a GOKADA bike NOW!
Buhari won't come to your house and serve you dinner!
Stop WAILING, start RIDING GOKADA!!

. I called back to make enquiries, and he shouted at me, saying I was calling a wrong number!

McTobe:
You guys, all of you that talk ethnic talks are so CHEAP and LITTLE. Talk substance if you think you are like Wole Soyinka. There is nothing wrong with NK position. In a political struggle it’s okay for your political enemy today to be your darling tomorrow, it’s very normal. You guys should stop all these your ethnic nonsense and behave with some sense of maturity.

Why didn't Kanu come back to Nigeria to help Sowore's people organise the protest and participate in it?

Mutemenot:
Yorubas are afraid of bubu and his python dance
Sowore 'll regret his incompetence in history before embarking on such protest ...

IMustWin:
Yoruba people wey fear pass any other thing!

Yoruba people and fear are like 5&6

SoftP:
One single mind, dem nor get...

Success1020:
I don't think you people know Afonjas. Afonjas lack will and courage to do anything as a people. I pity Sowore; just imagine the IPOB he championed to clamp down with lies is coming to his rescue. You think Abiola died in prison due to lack of support from his kinsmen, watch and see what would happen to Sowore!

Kingsley10000:
Afonja are naturally cowards...
they fear death pass

banom:
Mazi egwu.....nnam na fear dey hold you and your people...find another excuse.... spineless backstabbers .

ChristianEast:
Just one hour and we would support with 1 week.

But a coward is a coward.

Always speaking nglish to hide their cowardice.

daveson2020:
Afonjas are the most cowardice set of people. There power is only in writing fake news up and down. They are jealous and confused. They don't know what they really want in Nigeria.

fx45:
You're such a pathetic eyesore... How do you even sleep at night with all the hate and bitterness?

When will you have sense? Do I owe you truth or falsehood? I owe you nothing!
