BAT will tell you guys “… I wish there was a way; but there’s not!” When they start comparing it with US & Uk please ask them if 20 hours is the same thing as 24 hours. Even their proposed 20 hours isn’t guaranteed because of a lot of factors like “National grid collapse”, heavy downpours & thunderstorms, need to ‘dry’ the wires in the sun after a heavy downpour etc. So that 20 hours might just work a few weeks to justify the N225 but trust me if those on the so called band A manage to see 12 hours after the first few weeks, then they should share testimonies in their respective churches 42 Likes 2 Shares |

2.9 Trillion is just some few changes in Nigeria now. The amount allocated for unnecessary things and theft is more than 2.9T. If NERC must go ahead with this, let them Scrap senate. We literally don't need them house of rep is ok. Cut down on cost of running govt. Or better still return every state resources back to them. Abi why are they trying to paint it as if Nigeria is broke. 22 Likes 1 Share |

DearDealz: Yeah... Trust Nigerians! The coming Inflation will practically kill millions. A classic example of a fire brigade approach. You want to clear the backlog of subsidy debts at whose expense exactly??! Why not wait and first sort out the fuel subsidy removal and recovery, before moving into power sector? 7 Likes |

One of the cheapest energies to produce in Nigeria is power. We have wind for wind turbine free of charge from the coast of Lagos to Calabar. We have intense sunlight across the northern states for solar energy free of charge, we have waterfall at kainji and other places for hydro electricity free of charge, we have gas in excess presently being wasted in the form of flaring for gas turbine. We can even utilise our geothermal sources. Our leaders deliberately allowed us to be called generator Republic by other Africans. Understandably it is capital intensive to set up the equipment but we have the advantage of the natural resources to run such systems and equipment free of charge. 10 Likes |

Run any where, na same thing on earth. Toil. Labour. Work hard to eat. It is same in Europe. America. Asia. Infact, all these places are worse! Quote me. |

And what will the NLC do about it? I have said it before, NLC and other groups have overestimated their influence. They can't force the government at national level to do anything. Before you know it, some state factions will start issuing statements of solidarity with the government if any strike is proposed. After which their palms have been greased. Some people will bring up Oshiomole here. But Oshiomole has OBJ to thank for being somewhat responsive. If he met a character like Buhari or Tinubu, he would be reduced to making noise on national dailies. 4 Likes |

princemillla: If we are being honest, we haven't had a proper parliament (legislature) since Buhari's first term in office. Nigerian Senate is the retirement home for corrupt ex-governors and other charlatans. More than 80% of them have no inkling about Law-making and checking the excesses of national leadership. A lot of them just stroll in there weekly to sleep through meaningless plenaries, and collect over-bloated allowances for doing nothing. 6 Likes |
