Minister for power, Mr adelabu is a square peg in a round hole. Dude is a complete daft. Before his appointment what was he doing. Some one without experience, a learner trying to lead. Nigeria is the case of a blind man leading the blind.

ucheemmadu18:
I'm speechless on this

adalame:
Most Nigerians won't afford the bills if it were stable. I trust this government will defeat this electricity problem that has drained us for years.

Mikano International Limited, promoters of Mikano Generators, has denied any link to former Vice President and the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 2023 general elections, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

The Managing Director of the company, Firas Mamlouk in a statement said Mikano is not affiliated to the former vice president in any way.

The statement reads: “The attention of the Management of Mikano International Limited, promoters of Mikano Generators (amongst other products), has been drawn to numerous articles and press statements stating that the Company is owned by/affiliated with Atiku Abubakar, GCON.

“This disclaimer is a notice to the general public that the news does not represent the true facts as it concerns Mikano International Limited.

So you think Nigeria's power sector issue can be fixed within one or two years? No be the Minister daft, na you be the confirm daft. Always looking for quick fix without considering the age long rot in the power sector.

No leader in nigeria is competent. At least, till date

TheGoodJoe:
“For example, in our cement, every N1 we turn around, 52 kobo go to the government in various taxes—30 per cent corporate tax, 7.5 per value-added tax, two per cent for education, and one per cent,for health. When money is being made in the company, if you want to take the money, all the shareholders will have to pay the government 10 per cent as withholding tax again. This is for the Federal Government. When you add the state and the local government, everything now is something else,” he stressed.

This is crazy and all the tax extorted goes down the drain.

One reason I support Peter Obi is his plan to make the tax work for the growth of Nigerians.

chuksikem:
What exactly is peter obi doing in Anambra state?

Am confused to say the least, please someone should tell me because the anambra i visited has degenerated so much,

chuksikem:
Was in awka some days back ,its really shameful, my heart bleeds for my state, from amansea to awka is still the same, pothole riddled roads, non-functioning street lights, refuse littering the entire state capital from arroma junction down to Ziks avenue, ,arthur eze,unizik junction,court road,udoka housing estate etc are still the same, no changes at all, the state capital still looks like a glorified village,

Civil servants and pensioners are been owed 3 MONTHS salary, so many abandoned projects yet the woman sounding governor is always in abuja 24/7.

Please peter obi's handlers on nl should please enlighten us,

A state that has the highest number of successful human beings in the entire black nation, it hurts,

Wish soludo had won ,

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, on Sunday evening boasted that he could provide uninterrupted power supply to Lagos residents between six and eight months.

Fashola spoke at the commissioning of 8.5 megawatts Lekki Independent Power Project (IPP), the fifth of such power projects in the last five years in the state.

The governor said the addition of the Lekki IPP was a testament to the fact that stable power does not require rocket science to achieve in the country.

While challenging power distribution companies in the state, Fashola said, “Let the Eko DISCOs sign a contract with me, giving part of their concessioning to the state government, in about six to eight months, there will be power in all homes in Lagos State,” Fashola said.

He added, “So, let no one say that he has no money to deliver power for the entire country. This is the limit to which the law allows us to do, but we have done this to make a statement that power can be generated. So, when they come with lies that power is impossible, you can tell them that we have power here; we make it possible”.

The project, courtesy of the state government, in partnership with Heritage Bank, is to serve Lagos State Water Corporations in Lekki Phase 1, Oniru, Victoria Island and Ikoyi, as well as over 25km of public lightening in the Lekki axis. Commissioning the project, Fashola said he felt fulfilled with the conduct of youths that delivered the project, despite the difficulties in getting to the finishing point.

He said it also showed that the money to improve the Nigerian economy is here, “since we don’t need the World Bank to come and do this for us.”

[b]Also, General Manager, Lagos State Electricity Board, Damilola Ogunbiyi, said the state had shown that reliable and sustainable power projects are possible through the youths.

So what are you doing about it as the richest in Africa?
U know how many poles and high tension cables wey ur truck don destroy?
Many communities today are suffering and living in darkness as a result of your recklessness.

yemmit90:
I expect less from people like you who has never for once done business in your entire life.

Do you know how much an average business spent on fuel per day? Do you even know how much that majority of Nigerians are paying for darkness?

MasterJayJay:
False!!

Give everyone prepaid metre. They will buy what they can afford.

The point is having access to power whenever you choose to use it.
