PhiliptheArab: see in this life, there is a solution to almost every problem human made. abroad you cannot beat the system easily because its highly structured. how about enforcing a pay as you use payment system on power consumption. you see the thing is, power is a necessity in every household. you cannot do without it no matter how poor you are. now, why not have a prepaid metered system where you use power and when you dont have units anymore you stay in darkness. who likes to stay in darkness? 3 Likes |

If they cannot transmit, let every States generate and use its own power. More money should be spent on generation not transmission 1 Like |

Re: TCN: Nigeria Requires ₦1 Trillion For Efficient Electricity Transmission by 4ckyou: 6:48am On Nov 26, 2020 |
seguno2: I mean the new electricity bill will be three times higher than what they used to bring, am just speculating though. |
Re: TCN: Nigeria Requires ₦1 Trillion For Efficient Electricity Transmission by seguno2: 7:02am On Nov 26, 2020 |
4ckyou: I understand your speculation, and I am asking further to compare it with the fuel, maintenance and acquisition costs for a generator to provide electricity for the same total hours/volts. What do you think ?? 1 Like |

I've said it here often enough that we need up to $300 billion to fix the power situation.My previous posts allude to this. Nothing good can come out of this present arrangements.What was left of NEPA in terms of capacity was like scrap.The discos are useless.They are like hired guns who wouldn't fire. 1 Like |

Standing5: The power sector is already in private hands, generation and distribution wise. The main issue is funding. Which iss an issue becase Nigerians want free power. |
Re: TCN: Nigeria Requires ₦1 Trillion For Efficient Electricity Transmission by Nobody: 8:36am On Nov 26, 2020 |
seguno2: Sadly i don't hve the values, but a report in one of our newpapers some time ago put the percentages of people not paying for power as high as 50% in some areas. Even the Pricewaterhouse coopers report on power mentions that power stealing is a serious problem. At the end of the day, the power stealing issue plus the fact that power is sold at a loss makes it difficult for funds to be generated...that's why we have the figures above. (Anectdote...one of my relatives knows a high ranking DISCO exec. Said exec told him that a large number of folk in their area of oprtations don't pay, and it is affecting their company financially) |

Lies! Even if that money is provided today we'll still complain of electricity in the next decades to come. I have lost hope in the set of people at the helm of affairs in this nation. I'm sure millions of Nigerians too are fed up. Change must be effected. We've tried these set of leaders for too long and nothing seems to be working for the past 60years. Though I don't believe one individual can change this nation cause he is no messiah, but together we can change the narrative of this nation. That narrative can only be driven by well meaning youths with the leadership or oversight of leaders without stain or interest to be at the helm of affairs not godfathers! All that being said, everything here on earth is temporary. Whilst we go about aiming for good governance by the youths, note that we remain a people who are susceptible to erring, especially without the absolute guide of the Lord. Here is our Jerusalem and we must surely ad long as God gives us power, seek to repair or make amends with regards to all the damaged imposed on us by past and present leaders whether religious, traditional or whatever other part you belong to and had or have a hand in the bad state in which we are in as a nation. May the Lord lead us out of the temptation to vote any tyrant, selfish, ungodly r, tribal and traditional bigots! 1 Like |
