I hope you live in Nigeria, otherwise your response won't make my day tonight. Is there any reliable waste management in Nigeria? Can they do their job very well? I live in Delta State, people finds it difficult to pay for their disposal because of unemployment, how well can this waste be managed even if Russia are to maintain it and do the waste themselves. Kindly don't look it from one angle. It a good development, but the risk is very high and deadly. Any terrorist group who wish to put the country on tention would just use the nuclear power plant as their experiment of evil.

Reference:
Oga, it was human error that led to the Chernobyl incident. Stop the argument. The shut down drill had been practiced many times previously with no problems.

Yes, the plant was not up to western standards but it worked well for many years. All industrial processes have their risks.

I will tell you this categorically. There are currently over 400 nuclear power plants operating in the world and over 600 have been built all time. Out of this only three have had a major incident and only 1 led to significant loss of life.

Compare that to the number of lives lost in refinery fires, coal mining tragedies, pipeline and rig explosions, it is insignificant. Outside renewables nuclear power is by far the safest means of power generation and by far the best means to protect the environment.

But just like air travel nuclear tragedies make for very bad press and rhe scaremongering surrounding it. The major fear of the west is not safety but the ethics behind the storage or disposal of spent fuel but with Elon Musk's heavy lifting space ships coming on line the costs of space disposal will come within economic reach.

There is also safe fission technology coming on line that doesn't require fuel enrichment, runaway reactions and produces far less toxic waste . The science is hard but breakthroughs will be seen in a decade or so. Oil will definitely die long term. We better get thinking.

There are many areas Nigeria can develop in. Technology improvement is a step by step thing. Nigeria right now can not maintain a nuclear plant, we are too corrupt for that. There are other less dangerous forms of power generation. Abi u want make nuclear power station explosion, or nuclear waste exposal begin kill living things for Naija?

The blame is squarely at the feet of the discos.
The people (read masses) still view electricity as an entitlement. And that's because they are still billed on estimation.

The set-up is privatised for Goodness sakes. A paradigm shift is required to ensure whY is used is paid for.

Can you even imagine Siemens or General electric investing in Electricity and then you have majority of people 'stealing' electricity. Something is awfully wrong and I decide you to consider this objectively before pelting stones I the wrong direction.
what a stvpid thing to do after you know who you are....

decub:
LOL, have you ever bothered reading the history of Ikwerre and the rationale behind the names they and their towns bear?

In as much as I don't ask that they associate with Igbos, it is high time they looked back into history and discover their origin.

Funny enough, both the victim and the man issuing the statement are Igbos that dissociated themselves from Igbos. If not, how can one explain the Igbos they speak, Igbo names they bear.

I have one delta friend that bears an Igbo name, speaks and understands Igbo that he learnt from his hometown, yet, dissociates himself from Igbo for just one reason; we are on our own what a pity.

I am however inclined to take both positions and weigh them objectively.

You do have point which I respect. Your point is anchored on positivism. There must be some good things you see from your perspective that still inspires confidence in Nigeria. I share that attitude too.

Sharjah Sir is not in Dubai. It is a separate emirate and I am sure you know that.

But then again you cannot compare your best state capital to Sharjah in terms of infrastructure, organisation and cleanliness.

Let's call this thing by its name. We should consider this more of a wake-up call rather than view it with total disdain. This is not unpatriotic. It is a wake-up call. We indeed can do better than this. Evidences abound.

I do not think we should allow the import of the skewed comparison be lost on us.

Autojosh is trying to convey a message and you should make the effort to understand him aright.

For the avoidance of doubt those are not the best roads in Dubai. There re better roads like the ones that link other emirates like Sharjah and Doha but to mention a few.

Truth be told; we do have a a few good roads but when put side by side with Dubai it amounts to zilch. We really do not have roads. There is absolutely no road in the entire Dubai that can be as bad as some of the roads you have in Nigeria.

If anything takes you into Agbara, Lusada, Akute/Ajuwon,Mowe/Ibafo and also Otta/Ijoko you will understand how Autojosh must have felt.

If you travel from Calabar to Uyo (it used to be a 1hr trip in the 70s and 80s) and spend 24 hours in one spot you will understand how derelict our infrastructure is.

Let me shock some of us. When the Zimbabwean dollar was at its lowest ebb, their infrastructure (especially in Harare) was still comparable to some Eastern European countries. The policy then was to have potholes repaired 24 hours after it was reported.

Treated potable water was also as consistent as developed climes. If you lacked water due to some fault it was meant to be restored within 6 hours of a telephone complaint.

The earlier we admit that we have failed as a country the better for us. The structure must be re-examined and perhaps reorganised such that comparative advantage will be emphasized and the competitive edge of each component unit will be harnessed for the development of that region. Pretending that all is well is only tantamount to hiding our heads in the sand like an ostrich.

Dubai is a developmental phenomenon currently model that is being studied even by the developed dispensations.

Of course they have their fair share of challenges that rapid development usually presents there but most times it has already been projected for and it is nipped in the bud or at least mitigated. It is a well planned society to the very minute details.

All its successes can only be attributed to just one indisputable fact;

A long term selfless and visionary leadership that projects far into the future.


Unfortunately, we are yet to have that kind of leadership which attracts a loyal followership anchored on the personal magnetism of the leader who has evidenced himself as trully great Visionary committed to change our fortunes and reposition us in a position of pride among the committee of nations.

FORTUNATELY, all hope is not lost as cases of good governance abound at least at the state level in all the 6 geopolitical regions of the country. Our problem is then not the lack of visionary leadership but how to get them into power.
and....!!??

soo,we should just accept insults from a lowlife like him....??
