Too much exuberance

Mom007:
Because the Chinese and Japanese are not majorly Christian does not mean that they don't pray. They have their own religion and they take it very seriously. Nigerians don't take anything seriously. We caricaturise everything until even those that introduced it to us can barely recognise it.

Yes. They have their gods but dem no dey hope say their gods go make their economy grow. They work work work.

How does the meter solve the problem when people can still decide how much they are willing or able to pay?

E no hard brother. People are using the meter and e dey solve their problem. I want to believe that the two tenants are gentlemen. They just need some sort of understanding

Ijaya123:
This is absolutely false.

I just dey look at them dey laugh 😂

almarthins:
If you living in lagos, and if you re on one prepaid meter use this below to read what you use on monthly basis.

Make fight no dey, na why I recommend am for my tenants be that. No be for you to dey pay hefty money like maga don pay.

Yes this is the meter. It is the solution.

nlreserve:
I know I'm not the only one passing through this. So, MOD, please endeavor to take this to front page for wider viewing and responses.

There's a kind of meter in the market that measures what each apartment uses. You can use that to measure your consumption and use that to determine what to pay.

Tinubu and those around him are mad men, busy running around like headless chickens.

They keep moving around in circles. 

All efforts should be channelled in ensuring that the pump price of fuel, which they deliberately increased while masking it as deregulation of the downstream sector, is reduced drastically to at least below N200 per litre where they met it and watched prices of goods and services begin to reduce, the inflation rate reducing as well, and also transportation costs reduce with its ripple effect on other things.

Dey play.

The only thing that can drive price of fuel down is if they can drive down the exchange rate. Anything asides that na over the bar.

If you are in band A,
To reduce your bill, and turn the 24 hours into advantage,
1. Put your refrigerator on half duty cycle, it should be off at night. You either use a timer switch (cost about 10k on Jumia) or you switch it off and on manually - labour intensive. Any night you forget is about 2 kwh or credit units or about N500.

2. Invest in grid tied Solar system. This takes advantage of the 20 hours power availability. You do not need to buy batteries, but you need a good Hybrid solar inverter with grid connection. For every 4 used solar panels, you will produce 1kwh of electricity daily. The more you have the more you produce. As a rule of thumb, each 300w solar panel will give you an average of 50w for 5 hours or 250wh or 0.25kwh.

A normal house with lighting TV and refrigerator, without Air conditioner consumes about 6 kwh daily. Putting your refrigerator on day cycle will reduce 1.5 kwh or credit units leaving 4.5. Adding 5 solar panels, will reduce it to 3.5 kwh. Adding 10 Solar panels will reduce it to 2.5 kW hour. Because you must use lighting and fan at night, you cannot go lower than 2.5 kwh daily without investing in Storage batteries which are the costliest part of solar with 2 or 3 years short life span.

At 2.5 kwh per day your electricity bill for band A will be 2.5 x30 days x N230= N18000 approx. Not bad for 24 hours light.

Grid tied solar system isn't feasible in Nigeria for now. There's need for a two way meter system to feed unused power from the solar system into the grid.

Please I don't mean download o . I mean upload speed able to upload files that is 100gb .

It is okay.

makavalley:

Men playing God. Tyrants. Simple court order they can't obey.

Dangote truly is a fool. Imagine paying $100m for a piece of land in Lekki. Truly, the rich class wey dey the country are just a bunch of money miss road.

Wisdom is profitable to direct sha. Go and get the measurement of the land to know how much it should really cost.

Ile olorogun and wahala. I was privileged to listen in on a call between family members of another dead Nigerian. No be small wahala on top the estate wey he leave behind. Almost 40 years after he die dem still dey fight. Some of the children don old well well too.

Things dey happen. This hustle for money dey get as e be. Times are hard and everyone, especially women, must be extra careful.

Na wah o. Igba ni gbogbo nkan laye.

In his book "How to Die", Seneca said: "Death is the undoing of all our sorrows, an end beyond which our ills cannot go; it returns us to that peace in which we reposed before we were born...


...No shadows loom over the dead, nor prisons, nor rivers blazing with fire, nor the waters of oblivion; there are no trials, no defendants, no tyrants reigning a second time in that place of unchained freedom"

A life well spent. RIP,ma

Very well said. The holy book supports same claim. The dead knows nothing.

naptu2:
Fake news.

The trains are not used. A city ordered for the trains, but there was an election before they finished building the trains and the new government decided that it didn't want the trains. The Lagos State Government then bought it from the manufacturer. I created the thread back then.

The Red Line was started and completed by Governor Sanwo-Olu.

Thanks.

One would wonDer what the individual seek to gain by trying to discredit the achievement. He was arguing needlessly.

Ok. Make e reflect on the general masses.

Well, two of my siblings are in Bayero University, for now, as per as I can say this na audio money

Did they apply for the loan before you say na audio?

A dupe.

onuman:
Obi did not decamp to a ruling party. Obi left PDP when Atiku who earlier decamped to APC returned to PDP to continue with his unending search to become president of Nigeria; and was reading to buy PDP presidential ticket with his immense wealth.

Same Obi that was Atiku’s vice in 2019?

Very well said.

FreeStuffsNG:
The State and Local Government Joint Account was created because council bosses were looting funds and not paying primary school teachers. Since that account was created, primary school teachers are no longer owed salaries. Sadly, paying the monthly allocation directly to the councils would not stop the diversion of council funds.

States should stop the illegal practice of dissolving elected councils and appointing caretaker committees. Local elections should be free, fair, and credible to ensure accountability.

The two paragraphs above are part of the inconsistencies in the Punch Editorial. In one breadth it blamed the LGs for owing primary school teachers and claimed that the problem was solved with the State-LGAs joint account while in another breadth it admitted that there is the problem of illegal dissolution of democratically elected LGA administration and replacement with caretaker committees funded from the joint account.

Another inconsistency is boxing federalism into a certain mould as if the independence of LGAs suddenly strips away the operation of true federalism. India and Brazil are bad examples because of their caste system against certain people and religions in their countries. The central government of Brazil is taking over indigenous lands by fiat while India's democracy doesn't pretend that it's a government of the Hindus by the Hindus for the Hindus so much that the central government can demolish Mosques and build Hindu temple to replace the Mosques. Which kind of federalism gives central government the authority to impose religion on a LG? That's no federalism and bad of the Punch to cite both Brazil and India.

The Supreme Court is in order by insisting that the LGAs democratically elected leaders can never be effective unless they enjoy financial autonomy. The constitution never denied or affirmed the LGAs financial autonomy so the SC is not wrong by recognizing that the same independence the federating States could exercise is because of their financial autonomy and same privilege should be extended to LGAs.

Primary School teachers were equally indicted too when it was discovered that many of them were always absent from work and many barely qualified to teach. That's the problem of TRCN that should ensure that only professional teachers in its national register are recruited , it's not entirely the fault of the LGAs. If the payment of primary school teachers will be a problem then their salaries should be deducted from source so that no LG executive will tamper with their salaries. The rest should be monitored by EFCC and NFIU. If possible build special courts to quickly prosecute and severely punish any corrupt LG official and/or traditional institution Head.

That state-LG joint account arrangement is nothing more than a piggy bank for some state Governors and that's the weapon they use to remove democratically elected LG executives and even strip the traditional institutions of funds and render them impotent ,so much that insecurity has taken over and some Community Heads and royal authorities are at the mercy of rich bandits,
cultists and criminals who can easily buy their loyalty by placing them on their payroll with the illicit funds from their crimes. In Edo state, there's already complaint by the Gov that the Oba is using cultists to collect ishakole to run its operation when it should be funded by the LGAs and not hiring alleged cultists he is now blaming for the insecurity in Benin.

How is this possible? I can see Meristem in one of the Narration. Is it possible for such reputable names to credit your account if you didn't deal with them?

Does it mean your own accounts are not being audited for over 10yrs, how.come no one noticed it internally not even through SMS or mail. This is deep

See questions. So na KS cannot remove your sim number and email from the account?

Maxymilliano:
But it's still early in the month of May, did he bother to find out if allocation has been released by the Government at the Central or just want to paint the government in bad light as usual ?

Allocation can't be released without JAAC.
