Evil needs blackouts! So no surprises

They were budgeting reportedly about ₦47 billion per year for electricity.
Someone said let's get solar for 10billion to stop spending 47billion yearly. And you are hear complaining that i am paid. In your mind now, you are abandoned and jilted. They are with you in the struggle when they budget 47billion yearly.
Okay. So gas fuel and generators is not electricity in the school you went. Oh my days.

You are not making any sense, may you receive sense one day

We should be happy? Are u kidding me? Govt was elected to fix electricity which is core to business growth and here they are unable to fix it and have used tax payers money to give them selves 24/7 electricity ranging in 17billion and u said we should be happy? So, what now happens to millions of nIgerians who cant afford over 10m to install proper solar? From business to homes, how do we cope? Or we are condemned to sleep in darkness and and in heat? Mehnnnn

You are responding to that Zombie who has been programmed to make only nonsensical arguments? Lol. Bro Come on...

And Peter Obi said that any day he leaves APGA, let him die. So who is fooling who?

Nairaland is full of olodos

We have got to stop being emotional every time. FG moving off the grid is to free space for people and businesses that will consume the power FG consumed before. FG is not removing the power it use to consume, it only left to create spaces for others. I am sure every other government facilities will go the same route to ease pressures from grid in order to redistribute power to others. Many presidential villas have alternative power source. It’s not betrayal, it’s part of promise.

Is anybody still hoping on Nepa? Dey play.

Fix electricity, period. Leave all these ones. Okay, give us money so we can also install solar and reduce our own budget for electricity.

I haven’t heard this anywhere. National dailies are conjuring opinions again.

But beneath the polished press statements lies a question many Nigerians are whispering — and some are shouting: Is this visionary leadership… or quiet abandonment?

You go off grid... and leave the entire nation in blackout abi?

Now national grid can collapse forever and they won't care because they are not affected.

I see the solar panels and I marvelled.

Absolutely....
I'm happy that all this is happening during "the follow who knows the way"
Tomorrow history go talk am

You really assume that they were not experiencing 24/7 electricity before? Ignorance is becoming deadly in this country oh.

Really
You are a clown

If you think NEPA light will be disconnected at Aso Rock then your parents wasted money in educating you.

This solar is just a way of ensuring the president has uninterrupted power supply at ALL times!

Such betrayal of the Nigerian people. Guaranteeing uninterrupted power for the president while Nigerians scramble for the bare minimum.

The cost of maintaining that solar, combined with electricity bill is more than the budget of some states.

Capital mumu... answer us why ur papa cum dey lie,,,leave Obi first. I'm not his fan tho.but why ur father tell us lie?

Of course, i should believe you because you no go lie for me, but i should not believe government except what you want me to. As per you're god or something.

Fixing electricity is not mutually exclusive to reducing cost, the two can happen together. State house using solar or not is not what will fix electricity.

Then the govt should provide solar solutions for Nigerians while they are fixing electricity. Nigerians also deserve to sleep with AC / Fan on. It is not designed for politicians alone. They use our tax payers money and resources to give them selves comfort and ask us to suffer. That is evil. There is nothing to celberate here.
Give everyone solar then. At least 17b was spent on Aso rock aside what is spent on president and his family houses, and dont forget, they will be taken care of for life.
So, they should provide us with similar facilities. At least 5m will be enough for each home.

Do you think at all? Have you articulated reasons why any government in the world would by 'solar' for its citizens? Is this really a thought out alternative? How much do you expect this to cost and who would fund it? Do you think it's government job to buy solar panels for individuals? SMH.

Do u think as well? Govt around the world provide electricity for citizens and not buy solar for them selves

U are the funniest human on earth. The topic here is fixing electricity for Nigerians, period. Abandoning it while not fixing our electricity is the deal. What dey Bleep is wrong with u all who try to support politicians here? Is it truly true that some of u are paid?
Our sit of power using Solar where they spent 17b of tax payers money is evil. Nigerians sleep in darkness, doing this is pathetic. And yes, them dey take light for Aso rock that is why they spend heavily on fuel and gas. Look at this one, even national hospital dey use gas and fuel for alternative electricity becus they dont experience 24/7 electricity there from our national grid.

You're simply speaking emotionally and ignorantly. FG does not have the money to "fix electricity" because even the inadequate supply we enjoyed was as a result of subsidy in the power supply sector. As simple as that.

This is why the power sector has been totally deregulated to allow States craft their own unique power solutions.

The hope is that a mix of FG effort allied with State taking full responsibility for their own power needs and then Nigerians complementing this, by a readiness to pay for power, will create a power generation and supply market where investors seeking ROI (returns on investment) can come to invest in the Nigerian power sector in a partnership that works for all.

Full deregulation of the oil downstream sector saw Dangote refinery rise with BUA refinery and others on the way and not far behind. We now no longer have fuel scarcity with things even looking to get better, with greater competition driving down price, when other Private refineries are fully productive.

That is a microcosm of what must be achieved in the power sector where unavoidable removal of fuel subsidy means you have to pay more for petrol to ensure reliable supply.

Concept is same for power sector with Nigeria needing full removal of subsidy so private sector investors, with cash and expertise, can come in to "fix electricity" if Nigerians are ready to pay a fair amount for power they use once subsidy is gone fully.

What I explained above is of course far more complex but hope you get the gist to begin educating yourself and stop talking ignorantly.

We are in an information. Expecting FG to "fix electricity" is a hideously ignorant, irresponsible and unfair statement for any adult to make considering the mess we are in that consecutive Governments, failing to do the right things , got us into before PBAT who is now sincerely doing what must be done to secure lasting solutions for many national problems.

Lastly, Solar power is a vastly under-utilised contributor to our power solution mix considering God has blessed us with favourable weather to make much more of solar power.

The FG is therefore leading responsibly choosing to power Aso Rock with renewable and greener energy that will save Nigeria a lot of money in the long run. Nothing like "quiet abandonment" as the lazy article tries cajoling readers to believe.

FG does not have the money to subside electricity, but has money to budget cars for politicians, right? Oga, u cant fool me. Nigerian politicians are wicked, take it anywhere.
They budget billions for cars and their pleasure and budget penny for education and health.
So, FG is saving 47b for Nigerians right? So, what happens to Nigerians them selves who fund FG?

Do u know or should I break down the mouth watering packges designed for politicians? Like even past politicians, we spend heavily on them. So, Nigerians were created to work while politicians enjoy? And u are justifying this rubbish. How can the sit of power abandon her core responsibility of providing stable electricity to use our tax payers money to build 17billion naira solar for them selves. Haaaaa and u are justifying this shit? Like Nigerian politicians are among the highest paid on earth while having some of the poorest and under paid citizens.

Oh, so you know that they don't provide solar to individuals. Why then were you making ridiculous requests?

Yes, very much. There is no other way to explain this madness. Nigerian governments are getting off national grid and embracing solar energy despite spending huge billions of naira on power sector since 1999 only to generate almost zero megawatt.

Stop lying to yourself. What space is FG creating or leaving? Where is that space to begin with? FG wants 24/7 electricity without using carbon based generators, that includes some state governments too.

TechBaron:
So tell me — how do you expect people who profit from dysfunction to fix the system?

And this is not based on political parties, religions, ethnicities. They're all one, speak with one voice and want the same thing once they find themselves in the corridors of power.
