Illegal squatters, area boys, beggars, touts, homeless wanderers should all be picked up, asked for their proof of work or home, if unable bundle them into a trailer and send them to their state of origin.

Their govs collect state security allowance they should spend it on their indigenes.

Lagos will no longer be a dumping ground for all sorts of lay-abouts

I agree with this statement. Why should a state be responsible for another state's failures? Osun state should provide social welfare to their people.

yawehoverall:
Looks fine though, but here in NIGERIA we need to tackle poverty , insecurities and hunger.

This is clearly a misplaced priority.

Thank you sir.

Nigeria's priority should be refineries, electricity, and the Ibadan -Kano railway.

Sannisege:
The coastal road as an alternative road will reduce stress on the internal roads thereby making them last longer. New communities will also spring up along the coasts leading to more economic activities and depopulation of already overpopulated internal urban and rural areas. How about travel time reduction? The advantages are endless.

Why build alternative roads when the main road is in a terrible state? What you are saying the alternative road ends up being the main road.

Remman:
The best hero of our nation. He brought the idea to slash excess spending of NASS, so his death could be suspecious considering the greedy nature of NASS members. He gave Armnesty to Niger Delta militants, the first to actually publicised his Agenda and actually stood by it.

Seems to me like Nigeria has an evil spirit to take away "better thing" from them. Somehow validates the common adage "better thing no dey last".

Giving amnesty to militants is an act of failure and an admission that Nigeria is a failed state. Today the Militants now control the oil wells. It was under his government that the leader of Boko Haram was killed.

Bobloco:
Who is Nigeria's minister of petroleum?

That should be the first question on everyone's lips.

President Bola Tinubu as Minister of Petroleum Resources appointed Heineken Lokpobiri as the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Oil) and Ekperikpe Ekpo as Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas) in August 2023.

dreamworld:
just for small money?, the sentence is too miuch

He is a bank manager, If Nigerians cannot trust the bank then the country is in real trouble.

Observation

1. Era of PDP result writing favoured OBJ

2. Tribal voting did not start today, however it seems Tinubu and his minions have proliferated it, as we can see....

In 1999, all Yoruba voted for Olu Falae, from 2003-2015, all Northerners voted for Buhari head on...

3. It seems SS/SE vote more of competent candidates rather than tribal, as we can see votes to Obasanjo etc..

4. So no core SW gave GEJ 70% 😂😂😂😂

The majority of Igbos voted for PO

The Igbos had an unfair choice between OBJ and Falae and selected OBJ

Igbo only voted for Atiku because PO was his vice president.

We are all tribal inclined, one Nigeria is a fallacy and a joke.

How did you know, are you currently in the UK? Okay when I get to the UK, I'll confirm. If this information is true, me and you go come back 9ja

I live in the UK, and this is true. Tax is very high and pay is low

Kelvinofficial:
Nigerians complaining about these IOCs leaving are really myopic. At least now indigenous companies are taking over, which means retained revenue. The most important question we should be asking is if these indigenous companies have the technical expertise and financial chest to take over these oil wells!

If IOCs leaving is the best policy, why is the government courting investment from Qatar, India, S Arabia and UAE? Nigeria needs both foreign investment and indigenous investment

Judolisco:
China said they won't finance, that doesn't mean we can't build if we have d money...

We don't have the money or technology to build a coal power electric plant

Judolisco:
is that not what I'm saying, I said we should focus more on other ways of generating electricity, if u say other regions should generate their own electricity, then d question would be, generate their electricity from what? South Africa uses coal fired plant to get bulk of its electricity ... If Nigeria can look into dis it would be better, I knw there is coal in enugu and kogi.... Instead of relying on hydro and gas.... South Africa also uses nuclear energy...

Forget about coal; Western financial institutions will not provide loans for a new coal power station due to the ESG and climate change. However, suppose the SE state government and private SE institutions can garner the will to approach Asian financial institutions to support the financing of coal power electricity. It will make a significant difference.


https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/nigerian-lawmaker-questions-why-coal-power-projects-have-stalled-2021-09-22/

It was reported in 2018 that PowerChina was in discussions with the Kogi State government over financing a 2,400 MW coal-fired power plant in the state, but nothing appeared to have come of that.
In a pledge aimed at helping tackle climate change, China said on Tuesday it would not build new coal-fired power projects abroad. read more

Judolisco:
Niger for example now has like 4 dams... Kainji, jebba, shiroro and zungeru, d middle belt alone can't consume d energy generated from all dis stations... What we need is more ways to generate electricity

The total electricity capacity in Niger state is only 2700MW. The Middle Belt will need more to develop a mining, agro-processing and manufacturing industry. If SA, with a population of 60 million, is struggling to manage 55,000 MW. Nigeria can barely transmit 5000MW.


Nigeria should focus on the electricity that they will need for the industrialisation of the future.


Kainji Power Station Kainji, Niger State Reservoir 800MW
Jebba Power Station Jebba, Niger State Reservoir 540MW
Shiroro Power Station Shiroro, Niger State Reservoir 600MW
Zungeru Power Station, Niger State Reservoir 700MW

Bro, I don't support Tinubu or his government, take me off your list.

The reason why power has not improved is these Devil @ TCN, the are the RED tapes remaining in the power industry.Who do you think is responsible for all the power i infrastructures between the GENCOs and the DICOs? answer the TCN, Transmission company of Nigeria. They are another band of civil servants in the power sector, just like the NNPC.

Oshin56:
I believed you partially and I don't still believe you, did you think those staff looking for there daily bread are the causes of it, if you are talking about the Senior managers ( SM) I can believe you and they will still retain them when the privatization take place.

Does Nigeria need the TCN? Does it make sense to generate electricity in Lagos (Egbin) and transmit it to the North or vice versa from Kanji Dam to Lagos? Egbin should serve the SW and Kainji Dam in the Middle Belt, then the transmission cost would be reduced, and the focus would be on electricity generation and distribution.

BTW NNPCL should be scraped immediatelly

HighQue007:


The problem of all of you is that you are not being realistic or probably ignorance. Do you think our electricity can be fixed with a snap of a finger.. smh

Electricity is not rocket science, especially if you have available sources such as Gas, Wind, Solar and Hydro.

GRID electricity has five pillars: governance, source(Hydro, Solar, Wind, Thermal) generation, transmission, distribution and consumption. Transmission seems to be the major problem due to the lack of infrastructure and poor management by TCN. Replace TCN with regional distribution. The North should depend on their local energy sources such as Wind, Hydro and Solar.

Let states and regions take ownership of their electricity requirements. The existing electricity plants should be allocated to the regions where they are allocated; the SE already has 2000 MW. The federal government should focus on building more Hydro Dams in Northern Nigeria instead of wasting valuable resources on the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road.

There are reasons why the Southern states overcame their education problems in the 1960s by using universal primary education and local solutions for local issues.

ebufa:




Black Africans especially Nigerians are so daft,it beggars belief......Chai, see as white man they mess us up on both ends of the supply chain.........we sell cheap and bunkered crude oil to them...........while they sell us expensive but dirty fuel to us.............the devil and demons that brought fulani to power in Nigeria no go die better!

Fulanis are not in power today.

Tinubu is the Minister of Petroleum. He should have fired Huub Stokman and Mele Kyari immediately and get the local refinery working instead he is busy building a useless road

Huub Stokman should be fired.

Huub Stokman, the managing director of NNPC Retail Limited and chairman of the Major Energy Marketers Association of Nigeria said.

Where is the House of Rep in this matter?

HighQue007:
oh

A welcome development.

I understand we should keep these politicians on their toes and demand more especially accountability and transparency However, we can be constructive and critical in our arguments and demands also acknowledge when appropriate to move forward.

And may the god of the land, Almighty God punish the generation of people that exploited our situation and introduced Ethnicity Bigotry and Religion to our politics. It has always been there but never been this bad. We have never been this divided. Whoever that is God punish you no matter the money you have.
Every politician in Nigeria have failed us. Everyone of them Including Tinubu, Atiku and Obi. They owe us a working system. Peace!

There is nothing constructive about going around in circles.

Let states , region take ownership of electricity lifecycle and

tiswell:
What's the desperation all about in this project?



Personal interests and aggrandizement I guess

Tinubu is the major shareholder of Eko Atlantic Phase 1 and the proposed Phase 2; he needs a road network to open up his investment and connect it to Lekki Deepsea Port, another one of his investments.


Tinubu is building a Dubai for himself and a selected few.

David Fatunmbi @davidfatunmbi

Preliminary impact assessment certification is not acceptable for the multi-billion project. Before you can proceed with a project of this magnitude, you must complete a full impact assessment with all stakeholders' approval. Has the community been impacted, and what is the impact on Nigeria's biodiversity and climate change?

Only in Nigeria will a project be implemented without due process and proper governance. That's why nobody wants to invest in Nigeria

Tetrahedron:
Toh, una see yourselves nigerdelta people with “na our oyel mentality”!
Is there no oil in southwest, we are ready to welcome foreigners

Tinubu , should be fixing the problem in the Niger-Delta before soliciting for new investment

SoNature:
The biggest tool of APC is tribalism (divide and rule). Engage an APC minion in a conversation or debate, he will call you a tribalistic person who hates the progress of the country because he has nothing to say.

They've used that tool so well in Lagos to win guber elections and have brought it to national politics. It is a shame that Umahi who joined APC yesterday has adopted this same strategy.

APC is a hopeless organisation; their corruption and greed might lead Nigeria to another war

Where are the jobs?

SoNature:
Federal government should sell its power assets to states, private sector or make it a PPP. Tinubu has already signed the power bill, allowing states to handle the three sections of the electricity industry.

States should start generating, transmitting and distributing power. How long do we have to continue with this madness called national grid to admit that it's not working? Every day it keeps collapsing like it's epileptic.

The National Grid is a failed project.

I suggest a state and regional grid. Nigeria already has 15,000 MW. If these plans are sold to the state, there is a better chance that they can meet 90% of the generation capacity.

DMerciful:
This shows you guys know that Obi won the election of 2023 and he is still the major threat to Amoda. If this was made by Obi, you guys will be running like headless chickens on this thread

Take my name, Sulaak, from the list of people supporting Tinubu. I despise that bastard and his destruction of Nigeria.

Keep my name on that last if you think my support for the Yoruba race is wrong.

Liars, the Fashola government, created sea barriers that Eko Atlantic used to build the city without an integrated road network. The Lagos -Calabar is now being used to build the missing road network.

jkpbestseries:
This man is very useless. Although kanji dam alone can serve the whole Nigeria light, but those big men involve in Generators and Solar business has refused the initiatives of us getting constant power supply.

Stop writing nonsense; Kanji Dam can deliver only 700MW of Electricity, which can barely meet the requirement of Niger state. Nigeria requires a minimum of 60, 000 MW

Ain't this the same mistake Buhari government made?

How can Tinubu be worsw than Buhari, haaaaaa

Tinubu will finish the poor oo

Nigeria cannot produce wealth due to insecurity and poor infrastructure. Hence, the only means of production is to print money. This was the downfall of the Zimbabwe government

Do not own outright: True. It is OWNED WITH A MORTGAGE.

Cannot make modifications without notifying the bank: FALSE. Except ofcourse the modification is also being financed by the bank.

Any external and structural modification of a property must be accompanied by a full survey, architect design and structural design that will be reviewed by the bank and approved by the local council.

If you don't own a property outright, then you don't have permission to alter that property.
