They are incapable of rational reasoning. Everything begins and end with fighting everything and everyone to a standstill for those people.
It's annoying. Politics of tribal and religious propaganda is extremely dangerous especially in a mulitethnic, multi-religious country like ours.

There are more than enough things this government can be held with devoid of dangerous propaganda.

Smh.

There is no point educating you that it is Ọyọ state replacing Ọyọ unlike Ministry of Foreign Affairs where Anambra replaced Bauchi yet you hypocritically kept silent.
Thank u. Very annoying people. I keep saying it many of them don't know anything. The beautiful elegant brainy Mrs ojukwu was just made a full minister taking the place of the north, they didn't say love-vendor. The space is for oyo state and another oyo person is used to replaced the one that resigned see annoying talks.

It's annoying abegi..... what is wrong with some pple?

No be only egghead, na conical head.
"Egghead" refers primarily to a disparaging, informal slang term for a highly intellectual, academic, or highbrow person, often perceived as out-of-touch with reality. Synonyms include boffin (UK), intellectual, highbrow, or nerd.

Interestingly, in Nigeria, we use it for someone who's smart. I guess when Nigerians travel abroad or exchange emails with foreign counterparts do they realize how some normal words they use are not so normal.

Egghead without a track record in energy and electricity generation. Issokay!
I thought they said Tinubu would advertise this position even for foreigners to participate.

Hello sir, this is untrue. A seasoned engineer comprehensively understands the business of power from its technical execution, commercialization, procurement, contracting, financing, etcetera. An experienced engineer is expected to have comprehensive understanding of power related projects plus power constraints and can easily interface with the technical, managerial and administrative team either on the field, at substations, control rooms ,etc A seasoned competent engineer is expected to have engineered several power-related projects from Conceptual, FEED studies up to execution, installation and commissioning, within his career therefore he would have a bird's eye view of the entire process, policies and can easily identify challenges and proffer short term quick fixes. Most of these appointed fellows are agbada-wearing misfits and are not desirable in an industry that requires core experienced technocrats to provide the right and informed leadership. Imagine a situation where, for e.g, a gas fired powerplant with two trains of 500mW each where each train comprises of 2Nos of gas-driven turbine generators and a steam turbine generator with the gas and steam turbine generator having a capacity of 250mW each and are to function in a combined cycle (i.e 1 gas and 1 steam turbine generator) with the second GTG on standby (n+1) mode. If there's a fundamental issue with one of the GTGs requiring a shutdown of the train and procurement of one of the core components of the gas turbine (say a major failed rotor or journal thrust bearing) is costing a huge amount in USD and it requires the minister's approval before procurement can proceed, a minister who isn't a subject matter expert would be lost and can be hoodwinked by the GENCO of the inability of the train to resume operations, when in the actual fact the plant was designed to operate on an n+1 mode. He wouldn't be able to direct the plant operators on the resumption of the train using the STG because he is fundamentally clueless in the business of engineering and this can cause a major power outage within the operational unit as the buck rests on his table. There are several instances to this!! You don't put a square peg in a round hole.

Keep quiet, you have problems with Yoruba, eventhough Joseph Tegbe is actually a Yorubanized Urhobo man.

After this one saw that there's no way for him to become governor or at least for now, he asked for compensation for what he had invested already.
Business continue.
The elites are connecting with themselves to share our common patrimony and the masses whose patrimony they are sharing are busy fighting themselves on behalf of the elites while also sing praising them.

Nigeria, when will you arisehuh

He has an impressive profile. The endemic problem of Nigeria is corruption. The corruption is cancer in the country's flesh and it continues to eat the country up.
Where I leave here, there is a Lagos State Estate beside me and they always have light but we on the other hand, may be 1hr or 2hrs in 3days. But this same LASG Estate would have supply for like 12-16hrs daily. What do you want to call that? An absurdity! The saddest part of it is everyone remains calm. Why are Nigerians always suppresses and they feel comfortable in it.
I have had to go to IKEDC office upto 4times or 5times to complain about this anomaly but to no avail, infact it alright denigrated into a face-off the last time I was there with the technical Engineer and I am just about 6months in that area.
Na to raise small funds so good Solar System I dey hussle now.
Power is a private company the estate beside u is paying bill most people on ur own area are into entry theft and not paying bill if you are paying and 80 percent is not you won’t get the light
Do solar it’s the best
