EcoBrick:Jonathan bungled the Privatization of the power sector the day he fired Prof Barth nnaji as Minister of Power, he listened to the agbado and aboki nay sayers and ojota activists ,the result is that we still do not have enuff power generation, and worse, the transmission network is wack! This is the reason why Tinubu should not go back on subsidy removal and naira flotation! Reforms take time to work...........the power sector was never fully privatized and Nigerians are not paying market prize for power supplied to them as a result,the needed reinvestment on the infrastructure is not being made! Nigerians are reaping what they sowed! Imagine federal government paying part of MTN and Glo debts..........makes no damn sense! Govt should allow a realistic determination of power tariff! |

Offpoint1:The legal, government fixed price paid for electricity in Nigeria is LESS than the cost of producing the electricity. Which means electricity sellers are running their businesses at a loss. There's no mystery. If government fixes and enforces the price of rice at N10 per 50kg bag, rice will disappear from the Nigerian market. That is why there's scarcity of electricity, Federal University education, forex and healthcare and petrol. The prices are regulated by government. Good Luck to Nigeria. |

OkutaNla:What does subsidizing power have to do with a stable power supply in Nigeria? So for us to enjoy an uninterrupted power supply now, the government must remove the subsidy? What of some of these developed countries that subsidized power for their citizen? |

Every successive government from the time of Obasanjo has been telling us stories about this power sector without ever finding any meaningful solutions to the lingering problem now these ones have made the situation worse you don't have electricity and you can't buy much fuel to run your generator as before. |
