Oshiomole don begin camp o!

Is this why the discussion was started in the first place? Stick to topic "Removal of petroleum subsidy: In whose Interest?"
PoliticsRe: Removal Of Petroleum Subsidy: In Whose Interest? Live by sledge406: 12:39pm On Dec 22, 2011
Somewhere along the line, Oshiomole picked up. Good points!

It is not about praises or abuses of who is at the helm of affairs but the way forward but can we do so without commending and condemning?  grin

In my own honest opinion, I think this is the best way forward in Nigeria. When policies or changes are to be made, there should be healthy debates inviting representatives from all part of the sector.

As for Oshiomole, you are beginning to dull the gathering. . .do make you comot oo. Time time time! angry

If only WE have held our government accountable for every action good or bad to the public view, then we would have been ahead.

Never too late to make a move but the question is WHEN DO WE START THIS FORCEFUL QUESTIONING?

@Stagger,

Your words prompted my response on this issue. If it was an OUT CALL to all witches in the Shiloh 2009, does that mean the young lad from Jos who had sex in his dream was a witch too? If over the years, the powerful name of Jesus has been one known not to be uttered by "powerless forces" and the name weakens knees, how was she able to call herself a "winch for Jesus" and not fall or roll like someone with epilepsy?

People have tagged Jay Jay Okocha a "witch of football" but how many times was he slapped or how many times was he rebuked?

Please do answer these few questions lemme know what exactly you are about since you are a follower of "Man" and not "God".

It was the first day of school and a new student, Suzuki, son of a Japanese businessman, entered the fourth grade class.
The teacher said: "Let's begin by reviewing some American history. 'Who said: 'Give me Liberty or give me Death'?" She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Suzuki's. "Patrick Henry, 1775," he said.
"Very good! Who said: ', government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth'?" Again, no response, except from Suzuki. "Abraham Lincoln, 1863."
The teacher snapped: "Class, you should be ashamed. Suzuki, who is new to our country, knows more about its history than you do."
She heard a loud whisper: "Screw the Japs." "Who said that?" she demanded. Suzuki raised his hand: "Lee Iacocca, 1982."
At that point a student said: "I'm gonna puke." The teacher glared and asked: "All right! Who said that?" Suzuki says: "George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991."
Furious, another student yells: "Oh yeah? Suck this!" Suzuki jumps up waving his hand and shouts: "Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!"
At this, the teacher fainted. The class gathered around her. One of the kids says: "Oh s**t, we're in BIG trouble!" Suzuki says: "Arthur Andersen, 2002."

I editted my ealier post to reflect "NAIRA" not "KOBO" which I initially place. Please take note.
Just expect tarrif from IPPs to be in the amount of 15 - 30 Naira per KWH. wink (But with this subsidy removal, we all know everything in Naija will sky rocket)

^-- If the FG is setting the price at which these IPPs can sell electricity, then the IPPs will (mostly) fail.

Unfortunate
Do you realise that presently PHCN which is owned by the FG is charging between 40 - 60 Naira per KWH? The FG is not setting the prices, NO! Instead they have brought these IPPs and will be providing constant power for lesser amount per KWH than that of the PHCN at the moment. The good thing about this IPP is that like the telecommunication competition ongoing and with further investors to come in, things are bound to get cheaper.

The major action of the FG will be continual regulation of activities via the office of NERC just as the MMF (Meter Maintenance Fee) was removed from the present metering fees when Electricity Consumers Association of Nigeria (ECAN) brought this matter to the fore.

There's no reason for fear and trust me when I say there will be NO LOSS recorded as far as the customers continually patronise the IPPs.

A father put his three year old daughter to bed, told her a story listened to her prayer which she ended by saying: 'God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma, and good-bye Grandpa.'The father asked, 'Why did you say good-bye grandpa?' The little girl said, 'I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to say.' The next day grandpa died. The father thought it was a strange coincidence.
A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers which went like this: 'God bless Mommy, God Bless Daddy and Good-bye Grandma.'The next day the grandmother died. 'Oh my gosh' thought the father, 'this kid is in contact with the other side.'
Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say: 'God bless Mommy and good-bye Daddy.' He practically went into shock. He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office. He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent in and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay. He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound. Finally midnight arrived; he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.
When he got home his wife asked, 'I've never seen you work so late, what's the matter?' He said, 'I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life.' She replied, 'you think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened to me. This morning the gardener dropped dead in our backyard while I was watching!

@efisher: Any idea about whether the states must also sell the electricity they distribute at FG set prices, or at prices they set themselves?

Someone here asked how Ekiti was going to get electricity. Well, this Obajana cement plant nearby in Kogi State obviously uses lots of electricity.

So that you distribute power only requires you to find someone selling it. . . isn't strictly necessary to enter both businesses.
To answer your pressing question and that of others in terms of the amount whether it be the FG set prices, it will interest you to know that once these IPPs have been implemented, the tariff will be almost half the price of the present FG set prices per KWH. Yes, the FG will still have a say on the IPPs through the action of NERC however for every State Power Plant commissioned, you're certain that after the total phase implementation, the power will be able to meet the demands of the State and also neighbouring states.

Generating is somewhat the problem, not the distribution because Nigeria as it is presently is a ready market for the purchase of generated power. The rest na feasibility. . . wink

@Efisher. . .I believe you may have some connections to the Presidency or the power sector but please, do NOT and I mean do NOT take credit for something you met on the table already. People have been doing this IPPs long before 2008 and here you are talking about bringing it to the fore in 2009 thereabout.
Keep doing what you do and indeed Nigeria will serve her people right.

A couple was invited to a swanky Halloween party by a family friend, in which all attendees were required to wear a mask. The wife got a terrible headache and told her husband to go to the party alone, and to make sure to say hello to her family. He, being a devoted husband, protested, butshe argued and said she was going to take some aspirin and go to bed and there was no need for his good time to be spoiled by not going. So he took his costume and away he went.
The wife, after sleeping soundly for about an hour, woke without pain and as it was still early, decided to go to the party.As her husband didn't know what her costume was, she thought she would have some fun by watching her husband tosee how he acted when she wasnot with him.
So she joined the party and soon spotted her husband in his costume, cavorting around on the dance floor, dancing with every nice "chick" he could and copping a little feel here and a little kiss there. His wife went upto him and being a rather seductive babe herself, he left his new partner high and dry and devoted his time to her. She let him go as far as he wished, naturally, since he was her husband.
After more drinks he finally whispered a little proposition in her ear and she agreed, so off they went to one of the cars and had passionate intercourse in the back seat. Just before unmasking at midnight, she slipped away and went home and put the costume away and got into bed, wondering what kind of explanation he would make up for his outrageous behaviour.
She was sitting up reading whenhe came in, so she asked what kind of time he had. "Oh, the same old thing. You know I never have a good time when you're not there." Then she asked, "Did you dance much?"
He replied, "I'll tell you, I never even danced one dance. When I got there, I met Pete, Bill, Brown and some other guys, so we went into the spare room and played poker all evening."
"You must have looked really silly wearing that costume playing poker all night!" she said with unashamed sarcasm.
"Actually, I gave my costume to your brother, apparently he had the time of his life.
