2023 propaganda big pass this one, una still fail.

5 more yesrs of wailing for una 😁


[quote author=WorkTheTalk post=139213896]Even the one Tinubu promised, his spokesperson says he has fulfilled the promise. He says Nigerians now have power supply more than before. How come Afikpo people have not received their own electricity allocation?

Let me see if I can upload something I found.


They attack umahi who has done his best for the east to gain from this administration. If each one person from the east has done one project thru the federal government east would have gained alot from Gej administration and would have gone far ahead.

Yes, that's her community
I heard she brought electricity into the community. Or is it that they stopped giving the community light after she wasn't re-elected

So other countries, many other countries, have been like ahead of us with electricity matter. It is a very shameful thing for Nigeria to be in this kind of situation. Let me see. Like now, I have two power banks that I'm using for myself. And my battery percentage is 54%, and there's no light to charge it. So those two power banks, they are going to help me like going to stay for like two days without light. And I will be comfortable because that power bank can really help me in the long way. But there's no light, and I have paid for NEPA. I have almost like 2,000 units of electricity on my prepaid meter. But the problem that I have right now is that there's no electricity to use there. It's just like we are paying for services that is not being rendered. It's just so funny. Even the manager of NEPA was actually saying that he doesn't have light in his own home. It was very surprising, like, you are the manager of a NEPA, but you don't have any electricity in your house. I don't understand. So it's very alarming. Using electricity to vote is kind of weird. You should be using other things to vote, not electricity, because it's like they don't want the electricity profession or the electricity to be standstill, to be working out. I think they are using it to set their generator. And whereas the fuel that they are using is very expensive too. Everything is getting higher. They are making Nigerians feel uncomfortable. So one can not just go out now and say, okay, let me go somewhere and charge my phone. Where you are going, there's no electricity there. And the person that is managing that place has a generator that he's using, which is buying fuel that is a very high price. So it's just like everybody are just working for the government. It's just very a sad story. Very sad.

She restored light then before her election in the house of Assembly, not that she brought light to Afikpo. Afikpo has Light since the creation of old Eastern Region, brought by One of their own Dr Akanu ibiam. The problem is just constant power of for longer time sometimes a whole year without electricity.

I'm sure you don't have good source of drinking water, let alone constant power supply. The propaganda is how to chase away thieves who have stolen our common wealth.
You are free to keep on enjoying your tribalism and poverty.

There's no constant light for more than 20 years and its very low current that can't power a bulb if it does come on.

No light since 2001?

Obasanjo spent close to $16B on electricity back in the days yet nothing to show for it.

Him and Atiku should be in jail as we speak.
If u are right let Tinubu probe him

Your common wealth dey inside pandora file. After ruling Anambra for 8 years with only 1 brewery as achievement, the remaining money was sent to offshore tax heveans. Atiku collected some in 2019. Abure collected his own in 2023. ADC is about to collect more. That is how your commonwealth is being spent.

As to weather i have good water or light, I leave that to your imagination 😁😁😁
