You did not answer his question.

His question goes thus: How many Megawatts of electricity can 4.5 billion naira generate?

You said 2.3 billion can do it.

Can do what?

Now back to his question.

It depends on how you want to generate the electricity. But if you want to use the generators, it is important you note it is difficult to just state the quantity of electricity the said amount can generate.

You have to buy the generators first, then confirm their hourly fuel consumption. You also need to factor in the cost of periodic servicing as specified by the OEM.

This is why they keep telling us we don't pay enough taxes ,because of this type of expenditure imagine what they spend tax payers money on
Their over inflated luxurious life at the expense of the struggling Nigerians
And some idiot will come here and be quoting some weird statistics of tax to gdp
To justify why they should squeeze the tax ropes more tightly round Nigerians necks

Where are our engineers to break down cost of a thermal power plant minimum 5MW of electricity and how many households in lagos will benefit. The devil is in the details. Criminals must never be given breathing space to squander our commonwealth.

Stop misinforming the public.
You know absolutely nothing about generator. A simple Google or price check on e-commerce would have saved you.

Who will sell 50kva generator at 7m?

Na steal him steal am?

You can only get a fairly used 50kva generator at that price.

Thanks for putting his rebuttal to bed. When one sees the magnitude of mischief in the hearts of some youths one begins to question if truly Nigeria should remain one country.

Oga, stop misleading the public with fairly used generator. Nobody will sell a brand new 50kva generator for you less than 10m in Nigeria. All these ones you have displayed specifying locations are fairly used, forget the displayed pictures. Quick to say what you do as a job, is that a proof? Do you know me and what I do?

Don't mind him. The most expensive 50kva generator in Nigeria is Mikano sound prof which goes for around 12.5m. the total cost of 40 of such would be 500m. Logistics of moving the generator and connection fee another 500m. Making 1billion. The remaining 3.5b is for legislators to share
