seunmsg: Why can't EFCC or the AGF apply to the Appeal court to vacate the perpetual injunction shielding Odili from prosecution since 2007? I still can't understand why the injunction has not been vacated since then.
Killings in Kaduna is not your concern! Any time you hear opposition in court, your adrenaline rises!
Ovamboland: I can tell you for free that for every one tech guy getting job offer abroad, there are 5 guys whose only option is desert crossing. Stable power will stimulate industry and jobs that will reduce such demeaning existence for our youths due to limited choices.
I'm not trying to stop anyone with genuine job offer from relocating.
What is stopping Fashola and Buahri and co that said, providing electricity is not a rocket science!
sulaak: According to news media, that deal has been cancelled.
There was an issue about local content by the Nigerian government, since the German government was providing the majority of the funds (like the Chinese deals) Siemen was reluctant to share 40% to local Nigerian organisations.
This is not true, FG said it will start in the second quarter!
Ovamboland: Goodbye, thousands don't have that privilege, their option is desert.
With power available for industry and jobs created, those youths have better chance working and developing skills here. What skill will they learn sweeping roads and shoveling snow?
How many hours of light do you enjoy? I have generator, solar and yet still cant enjoy serenity. Bad policies are making people run away. 60% of youth going abroad are not street sweepers, many of them are working in corporate oragnisation. Bitcoin distribution will have 3 Nigerians. Gone are they days, guys are getting good jobs in Asia, Uk, Canada, Australia, Beginning may be tough, but people are weathering the storm and happy after!
Ovamboland: You don't know anything. If there are abundant respectable jobs in Nigeria, nobody will stop you if you still want to cross desert to go and hiding in Europe as illegal alien
The problem is I dont need to cross desert, I have UK visa stamped at Sheffield!
Ovamboland: That's why we should burn coal if necessary so that our industries can have cheap reliable power like the rich countries so our youths can have enough respectable jobs without dieing in the desert while searching for jobs.
Just like we fought UK, Canada Saudi over travel ban, we should be able to surmount any obstacle to coal power if it's our best guarantee for stable power, no apologies about that. We lose too much to lack of stable power compared to the effect of one single power plant on the environment.
Did Gbaja not do this analysis before that over 8000 wards will be involved when he insisted that direct primaries will be the best and give all and sundry equal opportunity. Anyway we know what we know!
They are affraid of electronic transfer of results!
Ovamboland: They will keep our generation and the coming ones poor while they continue to grow rich burning coal while advising us against it. Meanwhile our youths will continue to cross Sahara desert, swim and die in Mediterranean ocean to go and sweep floor in countries that grew rich while burning coal.
At least life has meaning over there, even if you are illegal immigrants. What is your country offering than suffering and hardship, unless you are eating from the cookies jar!
Ovamboland: Have small sense, these are reports from Ministry Of Water Resources on dams across rivers with power generating capacities. There are still thermal power projects ongoing via AKK gas pipeline and renewable energy projects
Foreverdope: A video which is circulating on social media, shows a man creating a scene at a wedding ceremony after he found out to his shock that the bride is his own girlfriend.
It was gathered that man was invited to the wedding and he showed up to the venue just like other guests, but to his shock, the lady who was getting married that day was his girlfriend.
Destabilized by the turn of events, he started causing drama but before things could escalate, he was whisked away by security guards at the wedding.
The video was shared online alongside the caption; “He was invited to a wedding and he came to meet his girlfriend as the BRIDE.”
The Federal Government has outlined nine completed and ongoing hydropower projects being prepared to add 2,672 megawatts of electricity to the national grid.
It outlined the projects in its latest document containing the status of the country’s hydropower sector, which was obtained from the Federal Ministry of Water Resources in Abuja by our correspondent on Monday.
Data from the FMWR showed that the nine projects were located in five states including Kaduna, Taraba, Gombe, Benue and Nasarawa.
They include the 30MW Gurara I hydropower project in Kaduna, completed and put on concession; 360MW Gurara II plant, also in Kaduna, with its engineering, procurement and construction contract already awarded.
Others include the Kashimbila, Dadin-Kowa and Itisi hydropower projects with capacities of 40MW each and located in Taraba, Gombe and Kaduna states respectively.
The government said both the Kashimbila and Dadin-Kowa hydropower projects had been completed and were ready for concession, while a Memorandum of Understanding had been signed with Kaduna State on the Itisi project.
It said three other hydropower projects, namely, Bawarku, 182MW; Makurdi, 1,500MW; and Katsina-Ala, 460MW, were all located in Benue State.
The ministry stated that the Bawarku Hydropower project was in its Outline Business Case approval stage by the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission, while the Makurdi project was undergoing re-validation of the ICRC certification.
The Outline Business Case for the Katsina-Ala Hydropower project was currently ongoing, according to the FMWR.
The government named the ninth power plant as the 20MW Farin-Ruwa Hydropower project in Nasarawa State, adding that the facility had been awarded and would soon add to the quantum of electricity on the national grid.
“Nigeria has a hydropower potential of 12,220MW, unfortunately, less than 2,000MW of this has been developed at Kainji, Jebba and Shiroro dams,” the FMWR stated.
It added, “This explains the urgency of harnessing the nation’s hydropower potentials to meet the country’s power needs.”
The ministry said since 2015 it had pursued the goal of completing the many inherited hydropower projects across the country and had recorded successes in this direction.
This came as the Minister of Water Resources, Suleiman Adamu, explained that the Federal Government was not privatising its dams, rather some of the facilities were on concession, particularly those for power generation.
Frestuffng: ose joor. Omo ale ni boy yen na, bawo ni WA se so wipe Tinubu he Omo 69 years? Tinubu ati buhari ni agemate. Thanks I won't reply him again. Make him spent his swaga 1k in peace.
Tinubu said show is GCI certificate if indeed, he was in Ibadan or mention anyone in his class.
What new ideas has Yahaya Bello introduced in governance that older ones like Sanwo Olu,ElRufai,,Zulum,Wike,etc ,never have?
Presidency is not a technical position,it is a leadership position that requires a lot of leadership experience.
Let the young occupy the technical positions,like law making, minister of finance,agric,technology,budget and financial planning,etc.
A 35yr old can only become the CEO of his own or family company, it is very rare to see a 35yr old becoming the CEO of a public or well structured company.You must pass through the ranks and that comes with years of work and leadership experience.
In Nigeria and Africa, it looks technical because we dont have good system. Come to think of it, Gowon, Yayah Jamine, Awolowo, Azikiwe, Balewa were in their 30s. If we have good system. 30 years can run this country wella. Many of us youth are too timid!
BeeBeeOoh: I am not a thug nor election rigger and I'm sure you ain't a thug nor election rigger also, same goes with most of us. As a matter of fact, I know what I'm doing and I believe you know what you are doing also, same with most of us.
But, why will a youth in his right mind be campaigning for a septuagenarian that his brain is somehow outdated to rule him if not a youth that is utterly stupid?
Baba you see that youth above, he's not just stupid, he's mad also
Let me comment now. Most of the youth are pummeled they can not reason for themselves again. So they rather prefer to die as slaves as long as their daily rations are being met!

Onyiiobi7735: Boric,Latin America's youngest president. But here in Nigeria, 35 year old people are still fooling around with no sense of purpose and direction in their lives.
The politicians know what they are doing. Make them irrelevant to themselves!
