What exactly is stopping Nigeria from having 24/7 electricity and making money form it as well as stabilising the economy?

Let's hear people's thoughts

Incompetent leadership, we chose a man who has never had light as he trained his cows for the past 30 years as president. Failures begets more failures.

God bless Umaru Yar'Adua

Sabotage.

not just PMB but all our past leaders are useless, infact PMB administration brought up the idea of nuclear energy but we kicked against it cos we are scared it will be mismanaged and cause a disaster but we forget nuclear energy is the neatest and most environmental friendly

The Exclusive list & Concurrent list in the imposed 1999 Constitution that is a Forgery.

It is 1000MW for 1 million people

So Nigeria needs 200,000MW

We only have 5000MW so for 5 million people

The article above is clear on this matter.

Dissolution is Nigeria's solution!

Then what do the fg stand to gain by keeping it in the exclusive list and suffering the people.. To me states should be allowed to generate power and supply their states, you will find out some states will have stable electricity

We don't have the money to invest into power

The major problem of electricity distribution in which 24/7 power supply will be achieved are sole sabotage by marketers of various kinds in IBDC. The meters they fail to make available is where they catch out on the populace. These marketers will go to various houses that do not have meters or the sole call prepaid meters and give those houses one ridiculous amount to pay. Failure to pay the money, they will come for disconnection. If there are enough prepaid meters electricity will be available in abundant.

Can u even pay for the 24/7 light.

Generate it first.. Let those who can pay do.. Afterall not all Nigerians can pay for 2b naira mansion but some still live in them

Yea, those that can pay (VIPs) have light.

Power is a complex industry. It's not enough to just generate.

the only way to achieve a goal is to start working, even if its short term goal, if u don't do anything, u won't achieve it

Politicians

Successive administration have been working to no avail. It's not as easy as u think

Nuclear energy in the hands of this government? Southern kaduna will be mistakenly hit by nuclear weapon. Just a mistake o

Is it not in this country that a jet made a mistake and bombed civilians.

Buhari.

Please how much is the price for 24/7 light...? We want to know.

Gbam.. This what I have been hammering for a long time.. The states should handle power generation within there jurisdiction.

Such condition will bring about a substantial level of employment, and a huge internal revenue generation for the state, then maybe 10% of the profit should be attributed to the federal government....

Life Ana agaga..

The worst thing ever happened to nigeria is the military.
The greedy generals.

Previously it's bad and evil leaders

Currently, it's Buhari!!!

There's just no excuse for failure (twice for that matter )

Ijaya123:
Is Buhari the reason you don’t have electricity 24/7 in your country?

No! You are the reason

If you cannot read his electoral promises before he was elected, you better go and get a cartoonist!!!
