Benin and Togo have constant light. We'll since you said top 10. It means there is already a limitation.

Nigeria problem is centralzation. Instead of each region to develop like Ghana which uses region and province we are doing otherwise for fear of growth and possible breakout.

This should be a call for concern for the government.

All we know here is 'On your mandate we shall stand' with nothing to show for it. The person will think will salvage what's left of Buhari maladministration is now even worse.

Honestly, this is very sad as a Nigerian and as a giant of Africa.

Our Government need to do more about the electricity of the country.

I can't believe it that Nigeria is not on the list.
You're funny

How do you expect Nigeria to be on the list?

Has our light ever been stable for you to expect Nigeria to be on the list?

where's the giant of Africa there. I even saw 3 West African countries there in the list dominated by North Africa with south Africa languishing at the 7th spot.

Before blacks took over national management on South Africa, she was top in everything.
Typical smoke and jealousy for black South Africans..
1. Apartheid built power plants to service only the 10% of the population (whites)
2. Black South Africans came into government and used the same aging infrastructure to service the whole country, hence the loadshedding, all infrastructure becomes obsolete at some point
3. The same blacks have now built two new power plants, Kusile and Medupi, while your Nigeria has built absolutely nothing!.
4. Loadshedding is effectively over now due to the same black South Africans..while your power struggles continue unabated. We literally found you with electricity problems, yet we've leapfrogged you and fixed them first

Keep misleading your gullible brethren to buy into your hate for black South Africans; it doesn't change the fact that your nation is a failure. and it frustrates the hell out of you.

There's a popular saying in South Africa, "dogs don't bark at static cars." So keep barking, my friend, we shall keep moving and prospering, while you remain stagnant

Have you any idea the Energy demand figure of Nigeria? as it stands, No African country can generate up to 40 percent of our Energy demands.

That is rich coming from you right, Black SAs only built just two, do you know how many has been built in Nigeria? Look the Energy demand of the whole SA is Equal to just Lagos state and Rivers state, so when stuff like this is being said sit back and take notes.

Who told you Nigeria has built "absolutely nothing"?

You have done ZERO research on that, so keep your mouth shut.

SOUTH AFRICA is also the violent crime and rape capital of Africa, with half a million women raped every year there. Even thousands of Children are raped every year there.

When will you sort that out?

We were considered Giant of Africa when Christians ruled Nigeria.
Gowon, OBJ & Goodluck.

Notice everytime Nigeria suffers, its from the Religion of Peace.
This shows its different from Christianity & hence not of God.
Thats why the religion of peace hates Christians.

So if Nija wan progress , its to find a Christian to take number one job.
You can actually knows the IQ of some people by their post.

Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia, and Algeria are Christians?

Those two have effectively ended loadshedding as you know it. You and your thousands of power plants are still struggling with electricity, so what's the point? We built according to our population, what's stopping you from doing the same?

Before the "blacks" took over,electricity in RSA was only distributed to few priviledged minority.How hard can it be to supply steady power if you only cater to few? Why is it that jelous people in other parts of Africa only quote half baked history just to paint Black South Africans as bad people? Why don't we go all the way back to where things started?
Re: Top 10 African Countries With Most Reliable Electricity Supply by Bossman(m): 7:36pm On Dec 10, 2025
Constant Electricity is a basic necessity. Every thing else is built on top of that. A country that can not provide that basic need of constant power supply will continue to lack progress and development. And that's where Nigeria finds itself. What a shame!
Re: Top 10 African Countries With Most Reliable Electricity Supply by cuteboy2: 7:38pm On Dec 10, 2025
Giant of Africa in stealing public funds.

Why are you surprised we are not on that list. How many hours of electricity do you enjoy in your area daily?
Why does everyone and all companies and institutions , including Aso Rock have standby generators?

Why exactly we are 'the giant of Africa'?

Honestly that narrative has to change as it negates the realities on ground embarassed embarassed
Giant in terms of Land mass, population and natural resources which does not translate to economy prosperity.

Lol, what's triggering this one..? You are still struggling for electricity, so what was the point of all that "building" then?

What does that rape have to do with electricity issues?,

You think we don;t know your children, babies and women get missing daily for their limbs for momey rituals? When are you sorting that out?

Electricity right now without bypassing in Nigeria is very very expensive and completely out of the reach of the common man.

Are you not one of the data boys that have been cheering Tinubu’s government?
He has borrowed so much than any other past government using electricity generation and distribution as excuse, even though we all know that he and his seven thieves still corner the borrowed funds and loot it.

Shameful

Have you ever see any government death or alive talk about nigeria light problems? Impossible? I don't really know whether to get pride as a nigeria in nigeria is a problems. The problem with Nigerian they hate good things but always comparing they self with wrong things. What are the government really benefiting for this light problems? The darkness.the pain. The complaints. The agony of Nigerians? Is it that nigeria government don't really have pride or shame as a human being. Even say for once!

We have leaders who are only interested in winning elections, how difficult is it to provide electricity for this country, we have natural gas, we have sun shine, we have coal, we have uranium, we have massive land mass yet we can not generate enough electricity for everyone, some clowns supporting this disaster called government we say it did not start from this adminstration the electricity issue have always been like this, the question i always ask them is who will fix it then.

NIGERIA'S ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS OVER 65%.

MEANING SHE SUPPLIES ELECTRICITY TO 170 MILLION PEOPLE - MORE THAN ANY COUNTRY IN AFRICA.
Most reliable and not the population supplied. What can 5000MG do for a populatiom like Nigeria.
