This country is so messed up. How do we Nigerians really expect our country to grow I look at our budget, convert am to dollar, I was shocked when I saw how much it was in dollars, e small die.

Just imagine say babaginda or abacha don solve light matter, or if OBJ or GEJ had solved it, Buhari for face other things. But, as Nigeria dey now eh, every sector is messed up and we no com get money.

Those guys could not solve the power problem, unfortunately. But Buhari is obviously not improving on what he met on ground.

ALAGOGO007:
For many years now, Nigeria has been facing an extreme electricity shortage. This deficiency is multi-faceted, with causes that are financial, structural, and sociopolitical, none of which are mutually exclusive. Nigeria’s power sector has high energy losses from generation to billing, a low collection rate and low access to electricity by the population. There is insufficient cash generation because of these inefficiencies and the power sector is consequently reliant on fuel subsidies and funding of capital projects by the government.

At present only 10 % of rural households and 40% of the country’s total population have access to electricity. Power supply difficulties cripple the agricultural, industrial and mining sectors and impede the Nigeria's ongoing economic development. The energy supply crisis is complex, stems from a variety of issues and has been ongoing for decades.

As of December 2013, the total installed or nameplate capacity (maximum capacity) of the power plants was 6,953 MW. Available capacity was 4,598 MW. Actual average generation was 3,800 MW. As of December 2014, the total installed capacity of the power plants was 7,445 MW.

The minister for power Babatunde Fashola said that 90 million Nigerians lack electricity supply. This is an indictment of the government and a clarion call on that same government as well as other stakeholders to do something urgently about the wobbling electricity supply situation in the country. Every year, the Nigerian government invest huge amout of money in the power sector with no positive impact, something seems not right!

The big question is, are we going to witness a stable power supply in our lifetime , will it ever happen?

Power generation, transmission and distribution is not rocket science. To solve our power problem, we need to decentralize it and allow States to generate their own power and creat their own grid. Even individuals should be allowed to generate power and feed to the grid and get paid.

A rogue claiming he is not corrupt. I guess the bigot does not know the definition of corruption.

I wonder why this guy's trial is dragging for this long. By now he should have been serving several life sentences for his crimes.

Flexherbal:
I knew it would come to this.

The pseudo analysts are talking nonsense. Iran/US issues will not attract more scrutiny to Nigerian travelers than we already have.

BafanaBafana:
Donald Trump says the US is safer now that Qasem Soleimani has been killed but it seems they are all sleeping with one eye open nowadays.
One funny thing about this issue is how US government representatives mention Donald Trump's name twice in every sentence when talking about the issue. You will hear some like "the drone strike which was ordered by President Trump was and act of self defence by President Trump to prevent the loss of American lives. This act by our commander in chief President Donald Trump has bla bla bla...

PS: To like or adore Donald Trump, you must have a great amount of hatred towards certain people based on religion, race, etc. If you were wondering why he has many supporters in Nigeria, you got your answer there - Children of hate plenty for here. People with rational mind don't really give a fvck about that nigga

You can say the same thing about those that support the bigot Buhari. Buhari is obviously a tribalist whose intention is to hand Nigeria to his Fulani ethnic group. He has been acting as the President of the Fulani instead of President of Nigeria. He has obviously marginalized the Igbo (the third largest ethnic group in Nigeria) in appointments and projects.
So you have to be a tribalist and a hater of certain ethnic groups in Nigeria, to be a supporter of the bigot Buhari. I'm guessing that you are one. If that is the case, that makes you a hypocrite, like the majority of Nigerians.
So save your ranting about so called children of hate because you are one of them.

Both of you are students. I'm just curious as to how he makes enough money to take care of himself and still have enough to pay your rent and give you #20,000 a month. Make sure you are not dealing with a criminal.

Sheikh Gummi will definitely make a great President for Nigeria.

Davash222:
A girl paying for what she ate ain’t no revenge!!

She paid for what both of them ate.

Koralords:
Even if he sues and win will they pay ?since he is unemployed that best they can do for him is give him work to compensate him

His Lawyers should explore the possibility of sueing Buhari's daughter in the UK. He would get justice there.

luluosas:
Sue the foolish girl

And the DSS. It might be better to sue Buhari's daughter in the UK where she resides. The guy may not get justice in Nigeria.

You should sue the fools for what they are worth. Nonsense.

richesbhc:
Afenifere of a group should shut the hell up, they complained of insecurity in the southwest the SW Governors went to seek help from Buhari, the help wasn't forthcoming the Afenifere called them cowards.

The Governors decided to act by creating a regional police, they are still lamenting, what does Afenifere want again?

What Afenifere wants is a well trained and well armed security outfit that can actually protect the Southwest. Amotekun cannot do that.

hisexcellency34:
They will say restructuring

Of course restructuring will be the solution to most of the problems bedeviling Nigeria, including insecurity.

maasoap:
The support for Trump from Nigeria are mostly from the anti-bubu.

Well, I am very much anti Bubu, but I am definitely not a Trump supporter. And not a supporter of Iran neither.

ZombieTERROR:
Boko Haram operates in the north

North is Boko Haram

USA should know that

Don't be surprised that USA might be one of the foreign sponsors of Boko Haram.

wickyyolo:
Trump supporters in Nigeria are fools

Most of them.

simplemach:
We sha know who pass us, anything to be on the American side is welcomed ooo! I no fit shout...

for Technology, na pencil and toothpick we still dey produce, thanks to Akpabio and Akwa Ibom State and for IT, we still dey do Sim Registration.

You guys will not kill one with laughter. Lol.

budaatum:
We probably might. Imagine Atiku in 2023. By 2028 Nigerians would likely be weeping and cursing.

We dodged a bullet there! We voted to reduce the pigs feeding excessively at the trough.

Sai Bubu Next Level!

This fool is still shouting Sai Baba. With voters like you, Nigeria will never get a competent leader.

newguy1:
I won’t lie USA will n still remain the number one problem of this world. U can’t kill there general n still threaten them again . The new Netflix series messiah said it all USA should remove there troops if the truly wants world peace but we all know they don’t

Don't mind the Nigerian fools supporting stupid Trump.

Youthleader22:
.

Who created you? Did you drop from the sky?

Someone claimed Israel is God's first born. The guy wants to know who is God's last born. That is a valid question.
I am a Christian too, but I am not a fool.

DonFreshmoney:
Lets the royal rumble begin..

USA, FRANCE, UK, ISRAEL, GERMANY
VS
IRAQ, IRAN, CHINA, RUSSIA AND NORTH KOREA

I need to see World WAR in my lifetime so that I can tell my grandkids how is it to be in the battlefield with America soldiers..

You want to go fight for your Trump? Good luck. I hope you survive to be able to tell your grandkids about your heroic escapades with the American soldiers.

naijazee2:
We are waiting here in NIGERIA In case they need our help

Speak for yourself please. If Trump starts a war with Iran, the Americans and their Western allies should deal with it.

Www.Iranscholarship.gov

Who will want to go to Iran to study? God forbid.

TechCapon:
Obama is the cause of this madness. He negotiated a deal with Iran that put Israel in danger and now Trump canceled the deal. Now Iran is giving Trump headache. God bless Trump

You are obviously misinformed. Trump is about to start a third world war and you are blaming Obama.

Charmingrascal:
I am a proud Omoluabi but Tinubu becoming Nigeria President is wat I will neva support. However I knw that God did not send that Pastor this message it was just a calculated prediction.

Funny guy.

Buhari is not in a position to pick his successor. That is the duty of Nigerian voters. Pastor Bakare got it wrong there.

Useless report. So the son does not have a name, the head of the Federal agency has no name, and the Federal agency has no name. Nonsense.

Sirjamo:
Must you wail on everything? A governor just did something commendable, you should be praising him. He's better than all SE governors combined!!!!

Knucklehead, what have SE Governors got to do with the topic. Tribalists everywhere.

masseratti:
Anyone buying this contractor claims.. Needs to be examined, biko Haram was there before Gej he did nothing, now Buhari is doing nothing too, the military is just using the never ending war to make money for themselves.

You are obviously uninformed. The mercenary is narrating facts. Which part of what he said do you believe is not true?

Jaqenhghar:
There is nothing special about this man's strategy. I believe the Niggerians "soldiers" can do the same and better but this is a shothole where the simplest things are the most difficult things to do . The idiots will prefer harassing civilians. SMH

Really?? If it's easy, why are our soldiers not beating the Boko boys? Armchair analyst.
