When I came back from outside 2years with the intention of not building house and hostels like others do, I decided to build a company generating electricity through solar and then distributing it starting with community...in the city people were complaining NO LIGHT.....HIGH BILLS


I GOT MY LICENSE FROM NERC (national electricity regulatory commission) AND THEY WERE HAPPY ABOUT MY INTENSION....FEW MONTHS LATER INSTALLATION.... WIRINGS....A MONTHS AFTER WE KICK STARTED WITH 18HRS ELECTRICITY DAILY.....IN TWO WEEKS TIME WE WERE GETTING ABOUT 200SUSCRIBERS then more and more

A DISTRIBUTION COMAPNY STARTED PANICKING THEY APPROACHED ME TO TRY AND FRUSTRATE THE BUSINESS BECAUSE ONE OF THEIR WORKER ALREADY TOLD ME THE OGAS AT THEIR OFFICE ARE DISCUSSING THIS MY NEW IDEA AND MIGHT SHUT ME DOWN....WHEN THEY APROACHED ME I SHOWED THEM HOW THE DOCUMENTS I GOT FROM NERC(NATIONAL ELECTRICITY REGULARLY COMISSION) THE WERE DISAPPOINTED


THE NEXT WEEK DEVELOPMENT UNION CAME AND TOLD ME THE PLACE I MADE INSTALLATIONS ARE NOT GOOD WHICH IS IN A PLOT OF LAND I RENTED AND MOUNTED THE SOLAR PANELS I SHOULD REMOVE IT BUT AT FIRST BEFORE IS STARTED THEY WHERE THE ONES THAT GAVE ME THE GO AHEAD....BUT I KNOW MONEY HAS EXCHANGE HANDS FROM DISTRIBUTION COMPANY

The next the distribution company came and told me I shouldn't use thei pole but my license clearly gave me access to use the government installed poles.... I said ok and mounted mounted my own wooden poles because am still running a test on the young business...

Next they said its not serving enough people that i have to close it down or I should request for a DISTRIBUTION CERTIFICATE FROM NERC that it cost around 20million naira

But the electricity am venerating does not require THE CERTIFICATE

THEN TRUTY I GAVE UP ON NIGERIA GOVERNMENT


PEOPLE WERE HOPING NIGERIA WILL BE BETTER WHERE AS THEY DON'T KNOW ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE TRIED STARTING TO BETTER IT IN A SMALL WAY BUT GOT SHUT DOWN....they want Nigeria to remain primitive so they can continue milking it.


#BIAFREXIT

Have you tried bombarding the twitter handle of the Minister of power before giving up on Nigeria?... Is this your first experience at being frustrated in business by bribe seekers at the local level?... Why dont you petition higher authorities in public playgrounds like twitter?

BIAFREXIT?
How will Biafra automatically solve the problem you just highlighted above?... are Biafrans not also part and parcel of the rotten Nigerian system which you just painted above?... or are the Biafrans in government offices all 'progressive' saints?

Reno, hunger has turned him to attacker and defender in chief.

RevenGeMission:
If everybody else is talking it shouldn't be Fayose , chief commander of the DSS , we remember his electoral victory Vividly

As for Wike , his confession of using Federal might and touts to Fayose during a congratulatory call was recorded and published by Sahara Reporters

Furthermore, i heard from sources i can't quote openly that Don wanny was killed not because of the Church massacre, but because he demanded more money from Wike or else he would leak the details of their calls, meetings and plans ... ever wonder how Soldiers were quick to murder him and arrest a few others ??

We know

Rivers state is led by thugs and criminals. I'm not surprised.

So this hypocritical criminal still has the voice to make noise?.... PDP/Wike controls 80% of the criminals and militants in Rivers state, and has always used same for political annihilation of PDP opponents. Yet this kpomo cutter vomits this nonsense about Buhari being responsible for electoral violence or irregularities in Rivers state?...

Since the 2015 presidential and state elections, Rivers state has been a hotbed for electoral/political violence perpetrated by state government sponsored criminal lowlives a.k.a. militants. I guess in the memory of this kpomo cutting clown, Buhari was the president in 2015 during those elections...

Jesus' Holiness Saint Miyerejesu, a.k.a. OSU the demon destroyer and bishop of the whole world is from Rivers state??

Everybody for naija na pastor...

tomakint:
Why this mr. If you have the real news post it here for all to see rather this unnecessary lamentation

Real news?... which news?.. I saw this same image all over facebook, and in every single place I saw it, there were numerous comments from different people stating that those were different people. You could have at least done a google search before opening a thread.

As long as the value of the Naira hasnt improved to below N200, whilst there would certainly be a general drop in prices due to the stabilization of the economy, it would be futile for anyone to expect commodity prices to drop to same levels they were before the economic/financial crisis of 2014-2016.

The amount of funny and twisted stories one reads daily in Nigeria's social media space is just alarming. Very soon even the popular policeman 'Abba Kyari' would also be called Brigadier General

Watched the video but still can't connect the dots, how exactly is that gesture 'prostrating'?

Threads like this will make the usual suspects completely lock Osinbajo up the moment Bubu returns.

While we all acknowledge the FACT that Nigerian policemen can be untrained brutal monsters, you can't fault the Shogunle guy in his twitter challenge; no one, not even a single person could produce a single video that fits his description. But as usual, all you get is emotional responses with several people throwing insults!

Nigeria is just in trouble... What's the point in holding elections if the election is going to be bought by the highest bidder?

waveman2:
I, very stay in Europe and I can tell u the buss service is even more expensive than train. Keep quiet. Local champion.

Where do you stay in Europe?... I'd really love to know where the train service is cheaper than the bus...

And please cut this your childish "local champion" crap already.

waveman2:
Go to europe(france, UK ,etc) train is cheaper than taking a cab even the speed train. Stop displaying your ignorance here. I know u, re a local champion

Cab you say?... lol... Even average primary school pupils know that a private car charter service would ordinarily be more expensive than taking public facilities such as buses or trains. Does everything have to be spelt out to you?... abi you be chudren?

Common sense should have told you that I wasn't referring to private services such as a chartered cab.

Gamesmart:
Where did you read that the rail line is meant for the poor?

He's watched too many indian and Bangladesh movies. That's probably where most Nigerians get that idea from that trains should be poverty alleviation liability schemes run by government to cater for the poor and downtrodden.

diliekene:
Bruh look to be sincere it is meant for the poor people that can not afford to own car or when fuel prices go up come on Bruh to be honest

Haha... Just the exact mindset I was talking about. But I'm sorry you are wrong!

Now let's analyse this, a train is faster, more comfortable and safer than cars. Trains and railway systems are also far more expensive to maintain than cars and road. So bro, what exactly is the logic behind this expectation that trains should be cheaper than cars or buses?

Apparently many do not know that rail transport is more expensive than road transport in developed countries. As an extreme (bizarre) example, it cost more to catch the train from London to Edinburgh in the UK than to catch a flight which gets you there in a tiny fraction of the time. A bus for that same journey gets you there at twice the time but 1-tenth of the cost of the train ticket. In a nutshell, modern trains aren't cheaper in the developed world.

MODERN trains are not meant to be 'poverty alleviation schemes', we just watch too many indian movies where you see old rickety trains with the poor sitting on the roof, that I believe is where we mostly draw this idea from that trains should be for the poor.

faithfull18:
It's on the high side. Road transportation would have been cheaper if public buses were allowed to ply all routes(I understand it's the Federal capital) and not just taxis where you have to take drops. The rail transport will save time though.


Check out my signature.

Trains aren't necessarily meant to be cheap. They allow for faster, safer, more comfortable transportation. I wonder why so many people just have the mindset that trains should be cheap

waveman2:
Actually too expensive but will only be cheap for people going to the airport from Abuja metro. Taking a cab(not drop) will still be cheaper.

Trains are faster, safe, more comfortable and more luxurious. Trains are not meant to be cheaper; they aren't cheaper anywhere in the world (except maybe we're advocating for those Bangladesh trains were passengers sit atop).

honestly GEJ did 80% of the job but PMB should be commended for completing it

That project started since the days of OBJ and El Rufai.

Youngadvocate:
This is the first time I would ever see this.

I just got a message on Fiverr this morning from a potential client from Bangladesh, India.

I replied and he told me he needed a Graphics Designer. Unfortunately, I'm not one. I'm just a Copywriter and Digital Marketer.

But, I offered to help him get a professional that can give him a "topnotch design." He gladly and instantly accepted.

However, there was a sharp twist of discussion when he asked me "where are you from?" and I told him I'm from Nigeria, which my Fiverr profile clearly shows. (Perhaps, he didn't see it).

As soon as I told him, he said he was busy to chat with me and bade me good bye.

But I wouldn't let him. And we had some exchange of words which I want to share with you guys.

For a nation that celebrates fraudsters and drug dealers with street carnivals, why should anyone be surprised when other nationalities thread cautiously?

Even as a Nigerian myself, I fear fellow Nigerians in business; so I guess that also makes me racist.

FarahAideed:
Just imagine ..they say they are not paying subsidy but yet they want to buy a technology for 17 billion Naira to help in subsidy payments .... are these people not mad ?

You have very unique comprehension skills

And we keep wondering why every embassy globally gives that green Nigerian passport a unique treatment.... Shame!

potterdon:
abeg show us the real road not this scam of a picture

The real road of course is still a mess, but I've never seen or read anywhere where anyone claimed the road has been fixed (except of course in 2014/2015 prior to elections when pictures like the one I posted earlier were being circulated). The only thing I know currently which is on record is that work is ongoing on some sections courtesy of funds from the sukuk bond.

phase1:
[s]Mr deludeen,
Obiano built the parts of the roads closer to and inside Awka the state capital which is the one you have in your propaganda pics which is less than 10% of the total Enugu-Awka-Onitsha express way.

The rest of road have been abandon by your lord Buhari. All through the lenght of the road there is no sign of contruction going on.

This is the current picture of the general status of that road. It was taken just about a week ago.

You are too old to continue with this ignoble level zombiesm.[/s]

First of all, you must be a very dull imp to even remotely think I was the one who originally posted the picture in my last post.; I was obviously exposing the propaganda of your ilk who claimed GEJ had in 2014, transformed the Onitsha-Enugu road and posting fake pictures of works done by Obiano inside Onitsha/Awka. Obviously your dull brain read my post but was too weak to comprehend it, so you jumped on it shouting "propaganda" and using filthy words which best describe you and you folks (zombie).

Regarding works on the road, it is on record that some works are ongoing on that road courtesy of the SUKUK fund (I don't need to show you pictures, you can google it). I did well to mention in my last post that the works were slow, nowhere did I or anyone whatsoever mention or allude that the road was completed or anywhere near complete. But of course, only a slow brain again wouldn't have read or understood that; you posted a picture of a bad portion of the road claiming it's the general status of the entire road. If only you had a sound and bright brain again, you would have figured out that I already pointed that out in my previous post when I sarcastically teased those who said GEJ had fixed the road and when I said the current work on the road was very slow.

So much for lazy brained youths who litter Nigeria's cyberspace calling people dullards and zombies; whereas their own skulls is full of akpala okuko.

Juliusmalema:
Checking .....


[s]This was the same road buhari, fashola and his co-horts of liars completed from Abuja....with their wide mouths.....[/s]

Enugu state governor should stop waiting on buhari....Buhari won't construct that road as far as is in the SE....The governor should mop up resources (funds), engage stakeholder (wealthy) and solicit for their support to save their land.....same way obiano is doing.....and then construct the road after which he will start pursuing a refund from federal government.......

But if not forget about it....Buhari will never touch that road.

But wasn't this road also completed and "totally transformed" by the last administration sometime in 2014?? (see one of the GEJtill2019 praise singing threads below). I'm a bit confused at how Buhari and Fashola are now the ones being blamed as the liars for saying they are working on the road (when indeed, work is ongoing on the said road as claimed).

Meanwhile you stated that "Buhari will never touch the road", but that is either ignorance at play, or just a case of intentional self deceit to promote a certain narrative; the fact is that construction work is ongoing on parts of that road (albeit slow paced like everywhere else).

While many who supported PMB in 2015 may be disappointed, a fact is that Jonathan is only missed by those who wanted continuation of his presidency in 2015; he's only missed by Jonathanians.

Buhari will be blamed...

wrong!

WAEC conducts WASSCE sir.

knowledge is not easy at all

What's the difference between WASSCE and SSCE?... West Africa?... or do they conduct another type of SSCE which isn't WASSCE?
