ocelot2006: Over here in Jalingo, it's close to 24hrs a day. I say kudos to GEJ.

Emmyk: @OP well. I dunno. Light have always being constant here in Ajaokuta, Kogi State for many Decades. Anyways in 7days, we always have light-out for nothing more than 10minutes.. I was told reason been 4 the Ajaokuta Steel Company stuff. If the light is out for too long, Nigeria will be @a loss of Millions of naira...

Sincere 9gerian: Public power supply still on, no blink, for 50hrs now and still counting in my area

Sincere 9gerian: Who says the propagandist are not earning their pay. These days, because of the fierce online attacks by propagandists, those who commend the govt for one thing or the other have to start from a DEFENSIVE point by stating "I'm not a fan of GEJ but" or "I dont believe in this govt but" or I hate GEJ but".
These DEFENSIVE opening phrases by those who set out to commend the govt in certain areas are just to starve off fierce attacks by online propagandists and BLACK MAILERS. Who says the online propagandists are not earning their pay and smiling to the bank?

jones-dollie@ho:
In my area, Ijesha Surulere (to be precise, NEPA only show us the colour of light for upto 3 -4 hrs in one/two weeks and each month our bills are not less than 10k.

killuminati: Rueben abati and okupe, and who again? Beaf? Insincere nigerian? God punish una for all the liiiiieeeesssss

Sincere 9gerian:
This is part of the general problem in Nigeria. Even when those at the top are working hard to ensure that life is better for you and I, lower cadre people, some of who to NL to pontificate about how things are not being done right in Nig, will be frustrating everything.
This is the main reason the govt is privatising PHCN because no matter how much money and how much effort is put into PHCN as it is today, the attitude of some lower cadre staff, the type which you just complained about will continue to be OBSTACLES to progress.
I suggest, you people should come together as a community, write a petition to the nearest NERC office (search their website for addresses), detailing all the efforts you had made so far and the reluctance of the PHCN people to do their job. Alternatively or in the absence of NERC in your locality, you people can still write a petition and go in group to deliver it to any higher level PHCN official. Which ever step you people take, consistency and follow-up will yield quicker result. If they'r still reluctant to act, you people can organise and go and OCCUPY the nearest PHCN office. Yes, its possible for 10 persons or more to OCCUPY PHCN and not leave until a firm and positive response is gotten from PHCN. This is part of the problem with most Nigerians. We make GHOST !noise and exhibit phantom activism about things happening in Abuja but we cannot exhibit REAL activism and make REAL noise about wrong things happening in our LOCALITY.
Anyway, I wish you luck

Thank you very much for your sincerity and advice. Can we also get a lawyer and sue them to court?

Sincere 9gerian: Where I reside, as I write this text, we've had 48hrs constant public power supply, no blink. Before this time we been having 18 to 20hrs daily average power supply.
Only recently, the power ministry officials and the transmission company of Nig confirmed the country attained a new power generation peak of about 4,500MW.
This is not eldorado but are definitely positive signs that the reforms in the power sector are yielding fruit.
We expect that 2013 will definitely be better as the new private owners of the PHCN successor companies take over.

Very good BUT they should also petition their [size=13pt]LG councillor and chairman as well as the state legislator and federal NASS Representative and Senator.[/size]
Let's make these people EARN the mega millions they cart away from our tax money every month.

Sincere 9gerian:
Correct! I didn't even think about that.
