Tinubu should sack himself first

The sacker also deserves to be sacked.

How's this thing you wrote related to the topic.

Freshtruth:
This man; Dr Bukola Saraki is one of the smartest politicians that I know.

Saraki just maintained that power should remain in the South in 2027.

The LP has officially zoned their presidential ticket to the South.

PDP has also zoned their presidential ticket to the South.

APC is also going South in 2027.

Meanwhile Atiku and his supporters want to take the ADC presidential ticket to the North.

ADC WILL IMPLODE AFTER THE CHAOTIC PRIMARIES COMING UP and….

May Nigeria win🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

Adebayo Adelabu is just a victim.
The power sector was already dead during the Buhari regime.
Pressure should also be mounted on Tinubu to resign.

In a country of over 250 million people having less than 4000MW is quite shameful. Countries with less populace generate power that exceeds 80,000MW.

Zee454:
Very nonsensical talk. Wetin they want make the man do? As if the former ministers of power were doing anything special when there was relatively stable supply.

The system itself is bad and it was just a matter of time before things got out of hand.. Make una free the man

I stand on your mandate gidigba.

If Fashola was not sacked by Buhari, why should city boy sack Adelabu Penkelemess

Fashola to Nigerians: 'If You Want to Have Stable Electricity Supply, Vote PDP Out in 2015'

Jul 11, 2014.

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, while marking his 2,600 days in office at an elaborate ceremony held at the Blue Roof of the Lagos Television premises, has said voting out the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from power in next year’s general election is the only way the country can have stable electricity.

According to The Nation, Fashola said electricity crisis in the country is caused by lack of ideas and insincerity of purpose on the part of Federal Government.

"Yes I agree with you that it is possible to generate electricity and to make sure that everybody in this country has electricity, we have to do the right thing. But you know what, the only way that you and I will have electricity in this country will be to vote out the PDP.

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.

The topic is talking about electricity issues in the country and you are here talking about politics... Misplaced priority.. mtchewwwwww

From my understanding, if you are not indebted to the DisCos, you are unlikely to experience significant power issues. In my estate, electricity is available almost 24 hours a day, which makes it difficult for me to relate to the frequent complaints about power supply.

Even during a national grid collapse, the only noticeable impact in my estate is a slight reduction in daytime supply, we still have uninterrupted electricity throughout the night.

Lol
I guess DISCOS buy fuel and on generator for only your estate even in the days the system operator declared 0MW for Lagos
It's funny all zombies live in estates
Continue deceiving yasef while ya yansh dey smell from sweat

plenty minister needed to leave








including d fixer

Who is mounting pressure on Tinubu to sack a minister
We're mounting pressure on Tinubu to sack himself!!

mecuries:
In a country of over 250 million people having less than 4000MW is quite shameful. Countries with less populace generate power that exceeds 80,000MW.

Is it more shameful that we are also a country with the highest number of children out of school, while barely supervised private schools dominate the country because our governors fail to employ teachers for the free education of all children?

Thankfully Makinde has broken out of the mould by employing 19,500 teachers in just five years.

Something that Tinubu's 27 years master plan has not achieved in Lagos despite increasing budget and IGR 100 times from higher tax burden on people.

Does pressure needs to mount on him? The Tinubu himself, does he have to be told that Minister of Darkness knows nothing about Power??

Why does he have to be told? We have never have this bad? As in zero power supply nation wide, what is the meaning of this?!!

It is quite unfortunate that he has to be told that the Minister of Darkness knows nothing about Power. Bullshit!

Will you keep him now that Adelabu Penkelemess confirmed that 75% of Nigerians have adequate electricity, even though APC has failed to crash petrol price and city boy has failed to crash dollar rate just like his predecessor equally failed in this matter

you just exibuted the typical nigerian i better pass my neighbour mentality

Did you notice that general power generation has dropped from 6000mw to 2800mw? Alot of discos are receiving 0mw daily to distribute and you are here laughing because you have light in your estate and others are suffering. Lets wait till generation hits 0mw before Nigerians can talk abi

Leboska:
tinubu internationally employs incompetent people & back them up with propaganda, go & check all his appointees is either people of questionable past or character or incompetent fellows. So forget the sack infact he'll even promote him.

But the labu man isn't really the cause of our power issues. He can do more though.

Adelabu isnt the problem.

It is the 4tr owed to Gencos that is the problem. The Gencos cant afford to buy gas to generate power.

You're probably on Band A.

Most people who aren't getting power have prepaid meters and aren't indebted.

As I have said, whether you agree or not, I do not know how they manage it, but we do not experience the severe power shortages often exaggerated by misguided critics.

As for the term “estate,” it appears you misunderstand its meaning. Living in an estate does not imply residing in a mansion, you may wish to look up the correct definition.

Sack him for what? For a problem that has been there since 1960? The problem of power is beyond ministerial. It's a national problem that requires the leading of the president. The ball is in the court of Mr President. What is his plan?

After sacking Bayo Adelabu what will be the difference?
allow the young finish and retire with the rest, all the ronu minister came to chop because it is their time, make sure another ronu is also appointed may be from the same state too, after all non of them is performing, why single out the power minister for shredding, who is the minister for agric, education, health, economy, what is their performance score?. We all know they want to sacrifice Bayo just to wash his hands because election is around the corner, show us your blueprint for power, lets see how the minister drifted, lets see his sins and allow you sack him.
After wasting 3 yrs you want to us him as scapegoat.

He is not laughing at you, and he is also right.

Band A users pay a cost reflective tarrif, that is very expensive (there are Band A users that gripe on this site about their power expenses)...and in the time of gas shortages...the discos priortise them over others.

That is because, again, they pay a cost reflective tarrif. Majority of Nigerians do not pay a cost reflective tarrif, and that's why the power sector is running at chronic losses and has not had money, enough money, to pay the gas companies since 2013. Government subsides that were at best supposed to pay part of the gas money have been irregular and for a while haven't been paid.

Had there been cost reflective tarrifs since 2014, even since 1993, or earlier, by now we all would be on band A level service.

The eediot should sacked.

nairalanda1:
Here is the thing, we can sack tinubu himself, (as I wish we do), replace him with Obi, we can even make Nnaji power minister (something I dream of), and heck, we can even appoint Trump as president of Nigeria, or bring Khamenei of Iran as leader of Nigeria....and we...will...still...have...blackouts and no light.

The problem with power supply is not who is ministar, but how much we pay into the system for it to work. Nigerians, for the most part do not pay enough into the power system to make it work. Unlike the GSM sector where you have to pay whatever price MTN or Airtel sets before you use their network, NIgerians do not pay enough into the power sector due to a lack of cost reflective tarrifs in the power sector.

It is this lack of a cost reflective tarrif that is causing most of the problems in the power sector. Because of that, the sector is losing money...to the point that for over 12 years they haven';t been able to pay the gas companies their money, which is why the gas companies are not giving them gas for the thermal stations . They want their money...and it is only fair for them to ask for their money. Government subsides are inadequate and not paid regularly because until last month, oil prices have been too low to sustain them, and even the recent plan by government to pay subsides via bonds just means that it would take several months for power to come back (and the two weeks story is just, as a nairalander pointed out..the power minister hoping the rain will save his job..lol).

Lack of a cost reflective tarrif is why several investors have pulled out of managing the discos because they are not making a profit, and it is why many of the discos resort to ripoffs like estimated billing and overbilling to survive, and why many discos are sacking workers, and many gencos are within one month away from financially collapsing.

Yet many NIgerians seem to think that adovocating that a company should HAVE THE RIGHT TO SET ITS PRICES...means that you support tinubu.

The principle of a company or business setting its prices is basic economics, yet stating the obvious means you are a tinubu supporter. The same tinubu that is doing the direct opposite by maintaing the price controls on the sector.


The fact is the power we get is what we pay for. We paid high prices the GSM set, and we now have a better telecoms and internet sector than we did 23 years ago. We bypass meters, steal power, and as a result we get bad power, unless you are a band A person.


We are getting the power we paid for, and it is because we are a poor nation, who uses our poverty as an excuse to avoid making hard choices that should be made. And since the government comes from the people, the government takes loans to keep on not making the hard choices that need to be made.


If you are calling someone a tinubu supporter because they believe in the free market and in prices being set by the people who own their busines.s..then that means that you support the government setting the price of your own businesses to help the poor. No other way about it.


We better pay cost reflective tarrifs, or we forget about 24 hours light. Ivory coast learned that lesson in 1993, and they got better light than we do.

You keep repeating this same things and jargons all the time, they have been increasing tarrifs over the years.
Stop supporting these incompetent people to keep fleecing the masses, as long as you keep appointing incompetent and corrupt people if you like increase it to the highest money known to man it won't still work.
Someone like Bath Nnaji was making significant progress then, but because of the corruption in the system he was bullied out yet u keep shouting increase tarif up and down.
Also when Mr fashola was appointed as pwer minister all he did was keep increasing tarrifs all the time did it solve anything?
Rest and stop reposting these same thing all the time, encourage them to look for competent and reduce corruption and see things work.

Like the best CBN gov ever in Nigeria, Cardosos. Like Olubunmi Obi, like Dave Umahi that is transforming Nigerian roads at an unprecedented speed and quantity. At a speed never seen before.

When will Tinubu sack himself?

Once Aso Rock has been lighted with unshakable Solar lights, there is no hope for Nigerians.
