uniquetechng:Apc promised power,.and still kept the old power subsides, which is the main reason why the sector has no money or cannot attract investment When a politician tells you that he would do something and does not tell you how they would do it they are lying and not to be trusted Apc is a useless party of liars who do anything to get into power. Our politicians should start telling us the truth , and not lying or doing sweet talk to get elected |

nairalanda1:And you think Nigeria is the only country where electricity is subsidized ? Beside nothing is subsidized here because we pay higher and don't get what we pay for, I know what I spend monthly fueling ny generator despite paying high for electricity. |

Effects of long term socialism There is nothing wrong with socialism, but the problem it always runs into is the money issue. People are a greedy and evil bunch who won't do anything for free. As a result, eventually things go down the drain, because no money. North Korea had a famine, Cuba has blackouts, Venezuela has issues with everything. At some point, people got to live in the real world. |

nairalanda1:Not what we experienced here, that's if you know very well about Cuba's electricity generation. |

nairalanda1:Are the govts paying market price for wages and labour......Are they doing so for infrastructure? U clowns are quick to always throw Nigerians under the bus,the close to market price we are now paying for pms and diesel all this years,how far? |

englishmart:But we have generators. Imagine telling Night Clubs not to operate because of black outs. Communism should just be forgotten until the Kingdom comes. |

helinues:Did you read what you wrote before posting or you respond to comment before thinking ? Cuba's population is half of Lagos State's population yet they generate a whopping 6.8GW of electricity while Nigeria with 250m people struggle to generate 4000MW , ask yourself question before responding to my comment. |
| Re: Cuba Suffers Nationwide Blackout After Main Power Plant Fails by nairalanda1(m): 9:23am On Oct 19, 2024 |
uniquetechng:The countries that subsidise electricity and have no blackouts are either of 1. Have their people pay high taxes to get the subsidised power. 2. Pay the subsides in the form of production subsides, not the explicit subsides that Nigeria does. 3. Pay subsides as targeted subsides. To get an idea...let's assume that Frog eyes decides to do targeted subsides, and his people draw up plans that only those who earn 40000 monthly should get the subsidy. That means if you get 40100 monthy you don't get subsidy. 4. Or have massive debt which is silently crippling their econony...Iran( and the government is scared to cut the subsidies because they get kicked out...meanwhile their debt grows)...or eventually can't maintian the subsides and collapse (North Korea in 1990;s before China propped them up again). Oga, if you ran a business where over 80% of your customers did not pay full price for your product, and 40% refused to pay, and government gave you nothing for your resulting loss, would your business survive.? Try and see the big picture sometimes. |

helinues:What opposition? Didn't Fashola then in opposition or speaking for the opposition ask Nigerians to vote out PDP and Jonathan and have light in 6 months? APC have had close to 10 years to solve those decades old problems but have made them worse. Tell me which area of our national life has improved under APC: is it the economy, security, fight against corruption, energy supply, food security, social cohesion and national unity? Just tell me what they have done to improve on what they inherited? |

According to Peter Obi it is disgraceful for Cuba national Grid to collapse. |

Hopefully it was not hacked, but their record of electrification is better than Nigeria. But why would they build only one central station. The great igbo tribe needs to be wise in an igbo nation. |

APC supporters atleast you have something to use and console yourselves 🤣🤣 |
| Re: Cuba Suffers Nationwide Blackout After Main Power Plant Fails by Rossikk(m): 9:54am On Oct 19, 2024 |
Calyb:WRONG. WE STARTED HAVING LIGHT FROM 1960. OUR FIRST POWER STATION WAS KAINJI DAM COMMISSIONED IN 1964. I’M SURE IN YOUR COLONISED HEAD YOU WERE THINKING THAT THE BRITISH GRAND LOOTERS WERE GIVING YOU ELECTRICITY. IGNORANT PEOPLE. THE BRITISH WERE USING IMPORTED INDUSTRIAL GENERATORS TO LIGHT UP IKOYI AND THE GRAs WERE THEY LIVED AROUND THE COUNTRY. EVERYONE ELSE USED CANDLES AND LANTERNS. THEY DIDN’T EVEN BUILD A NATIONAL GRID! HOUSES WERE NOT EVEN WIRED! LOOK, EVERY DAY YOU WAKE UP, JUST THANK GOD FOR INDEPENDENCE IN 1960, BECAUSE WITHOUT IT, YOU WOULD BE AN ILLITERATE VILLAGE PALMWINE TAPPER TODAY LIVING IN A MUD HUT, BECAUSE THE BRITISH LOOTERS BUILT NO PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND NO INFRASTRUCTURE! |

englishmart:How can u compare us with people that build us via colonialism 🤔 Una get sense at all |
| Re: Cuba Suffers Nationwide Blackout After Main Power Plant Fails by Tayorshd87(m): 10:31am On Oct 19, 2024 |
nairalanda1:My brother.may God bless u jàre . They want stable electricityike USand UK but they want it to be free 😢. Ask them to pay tax for better road and amenities they say government is a thief but they can quickly compare us to Us and UK that pay for almost 99.9% of what they are enjoying. But here in Nigeria they want all but don't ready to pay 1 Naira |
| Re: Cuba Suffers Nationwide Blackout After Main Power Plant Fails by Quelme: 10:32am On Oct 19, 2024 |
tommy589:just one black out in like an 100 years and you are displaying your ignorance in full glare. Some parts of France since yesterday has been in total darkness, no electricity supply should they also reconcile with the US? Or Nigeria with constant power outages should also reconcile with the US? Where is the talk of reconciling with the US coming from? |
