Baba Fashola is just looking for more money to line his pocket ... The ones he stole from Lagos state is not enough

What happened to all the increase, the power situation is still very poor so make he allow us hear word

connectpoint:
Fashola is totally clueless asper the functions of a minister, what he ought to have done immediately after resumption of office was an audit on the entire power sector chain, from gas supply, distribution, rate of power produced,bottlenecks affecting the chain at any levels and implement policies that would unstop the bottlenecks for example, the rule that discos must provide pre-paid meters is good, but the dude is fumbling, when we mention these things, some people say we attack him out of hatred for a specie...the thing makes me weak... Fashola has lost it..or rather doesn't have it at all.. Fashola should :

1. Tell us the exact amount of power Nigeria was generating when he took over and tell Nigerians how it has been improved.

2. Tell Nigeria how much has been realised from the increment and why power hasn't improved despite the heavy burden placed on my people.

3. Give us milestones of what to expect over the next x years


Rather Fashola is fighting with the senate/reps trying to be relevant because Ambode is now the rising figure and his tall dream of being the abobaje or leader of the south west is being decimated by Ambode's sudden rise in popularity..I pity him..Nothing of worth can be said to have been done under his watch... Fidigbon o shi lekun... grammar doesn't make account balance increase...that's his demise....

SalamRushdie:
Instead of Fashola to concentrate on getting the DISCOS to start accepting 100 percent of the power wheeled to them by GENCOS he is talking of Tarrif increase when the DISCOS especial that useless EKO disco is primarily neck deep in the evil business of selling darkness to consumers in the 21st century while they reject 70 percent of the power sent thier way by GENCOS, the practice of selling darkness is one of the most hideous economic and consumer crime I have come across and Fashola keeps proving me right that he is a part of it.

If your father had gone to school, Fashola wouldn't have been in that position.

1.Fashola can't line his pockets from power because of privatization (DISCOS and GENCOS...remember...since 2014).

2.Despite the increases...the money needed to fix power in Nigeria is huge. TO wit...we need to find $300bn to spend in the next 3 years to guarantee light 24/7. (ten times our current external reserves).

3.And banks won't lend to DISCOS and GENCOS...plus their suppliers....even Nigeria Gas Company....want to be paid in dollars...not naira.

SalamRushdie:
What are you even saying? This is the same tone he used just over a year ago when he increased our electricity tariff by 50 percent and till now not a single improvement has been seen .

Viking007:
He is a real goat. I am being charged N11,000 monthly (estimated billing, the idiots refused to give us meters) for a 2 bedroom flat! As if I own a pure water factory inside my house.

sekxy:
wow which side is that...I have not seen light in my area close to 6days now

What NERC and the Minister should do is to compel all Discos to connect All or 95% of Nigerians to Prepaid meters.

People can then use what they can afford just like the GSM telephones. The big Onus is on Discos to checkmate bypassing by monitoring and punishing those found guilty.

Issuing estimated bills to people is unlawful and unacceptable and metering transformers instead of individuals is also wrong because some people have/use more electrical gadgets than others.

Ur fada that went to school, which one is he?

Look out how you dragged your father into a social media debate.

Calling a man your father would never be, a goat

Smh...

fineboynl:
its true fashola performance in Lagos was over hyped. and i believe someone like fayose would performed better than fashola in Lagos from what we are witnessing from abode, its shows any governor will still do better in Lagos because Lagos is rich.

now to the electricity tariff review. even if they increased it to one million me and you knows that there won't be any meaningful change. if they cannot operate it under the current review they should as a matter of fact handover it back to the government or the sell it back. government should stop interference with private investors. these guys are running business for crying out loud. they should put them on the toe with strict orders. it's not by force if they can't run it they should hand it back to government.

I've been enjoying light in my area sha

TheBawse:
what is dis joker of a minister saying, we should pay for a service not used? .
Just yesterday, i got my monthly bill and my electricity useage doubled. whats suprising is dat we did not have light for almost 12 days out of the 30 days and my meter was read for the month. yet these jokers sent me a bill indicating i expended 266 kwh.
i dey wait dem

altitudee:
God help Nigeria...looking at the comment of the so called Nigerian Leader of tomorrow/today... most u be sentimental with your comment...the fact that you don't have light in your area is not/not entirely on the minister of power...have you checked the funtionality of your CDA,LCDA,etc... the fact that you don't have a transformer is that the Minister fault? the fact that the unqualified people in your area keep tempering with your transformer is it the Minister fault... the Minister has given you (information) indirectly the Body responsible for changing tariff and how it is done... some of you have constant power supply, yet you come to this platform to tarnish images... I'm not a supporter of any person or party but i dare to recognized Activeness from passiveness...

All these critics sef .. light has been good here ..where I never thought it'd be
