The touching part is that they generate more electricity from windmills than from 40 Nuclear reactors. There is no real future for economies that rely solely on crude.

The distance will make it impossible. You cannot transmit electricity wirelessly.

Working Nation. While they're paying their citizens to consume power, we pay and beg them to give us power in this part of the world.

Electricity has always been the campaign strategy every administration has used in Nigeria to wheel political power but yet, we're still in the doldrums. SMH.

You lazy ass citizens blame your government for everything

Your government is as bad as the citizens

But the same lazy ass citizens shout when they hear Nuclear power plant

Developed countries generate 70% of their electricity via Nuclear power and fossil fuel

15 Nuclear power plants are still in operation in UK.

26% of electricity in US is generated via Nuclear power plant as at last year...

If these people run away like you Cowards, they ll probably be sleeping in darkness today

The moment you lazy ass citizens hear Nuclear power, you all take to your heels.

Everything you enjoy today and praise Europeans for, if they all behave like animals like Nigerian youngsters, they won’t be enjoying the electricity today.

This headline is misleading. Germany will not pay anyone anything for over production. They will only not charge you for the period d excess last which is very negligible. Same thing happened in 2015. I live in Germany so I know this is fake news

Jonathan gave our discos to his cronies.

That is why l say CORRUPTION is at the root of all our problems!

We thought Buahri will be able t do something about it but his illness and Nepotism means he is looking the other way.

Its a very sad situation but pity-party does not solve a problem.
We need to organise and strategize if we want things to change.

So I was reading a news online when I came across this news on Bloomberg, then I got the shock of my life. So apparently the power generation company in Germany produced a lot of power more than they need that if people dont use the power, It might shut down the plant, so in other to avoid that, they were willing to pay people to Use (waste) the excess power generated. Now this got me thinking, What the Hell is wrong with us in this part of the world?
