Those who own an electric vehicle will understand the importance of this infrastructure. Not every project is designed for everyone.In developing countries, this is what the government has done in many strategic locations. Does the fact that you can afford it mean that type of project should not be done?

Reason with your brain, not with your ass.

Misplaced priority....

As we speak, this week alone Abuja no geh light for 3days stretch..... They brought it yesterday for some hours. Currently this morning o light is no where to be found again, they took it over the night. And it's not a priority. Food security is not a priority. Cheap means of transportation in Abj is not a priority
What a useless govt.

If the capital of a country is thrown into darkness without explanation every now and then what is the hope of other state?

Here they are commissioning electric vehicle charging point. Electric vehicle that no masses or middle class will be able to afford in the next 20 years even if they keep saving all their salary

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.”

How many Nigerians can afford electric cars?

A 20 year old corolla has become a luxury to so many, how much more an electric car.

This charging station is for the rich and not the masses.

Prolificgiant:

MightySparrow:
We don't need electric vehicles in Nigeria: Africa. All African presidents should encourage Maxwell Chikunbusto free energy car. Few weeks ago, the car made 7500 km without recharge against all skepticism and disbelief. He just asked a Chinese company to build the car and put his device.

ShenTeh:
Is this a joke!

Commissioning a charging point! FG o. Not LG o

na2016:

Walexy96:
If you think Govt is your problem you will never be satisfied in .

Many of you Talk rubbish with so much pride, ego... and entitlement. A student that cannot compete with his contaparts in diaspora in this internet age will be talking to govt.

Instead of lashing government everytime, what have you do as a good citizen to support your community not to talk of your state? You will just open mouth waaaaa and be talking.

Some people cannot even teach their immediate junior ones good morals and yet they want to blame govt.

One slowpoke will still come and look for grammatical error and not think about the content of the post. Fuuuullss
