3rd Mainland Bridge will be full of holdup soon when electric cars stop moving due to power failure and no where to charge.

Is an electric car the priority now?. When we should be burdened with security. When we should be ensuring our streets have cameras. That fighter jets hover on all high ways to enforce safety.

The day and the time you start telling yourself the truth as a youth and stop being a Hypocrite is the day life will start being beautiful and lovely for you lots.

If you refused to accept where your problem came from in life, you can never move forward so says the Golden Words of the Wise men and women.

I understand your point but that doesn't make the Buhari government any better. The country is worse right now and putting blames ain't the solution.

And they say; don't talk about it.
Focus on the present and the future only.
How we miss Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. He would have said: "I go shout o, I go shout plenty o."
If we don't focus on the past, we are then liable to make the same mistakes.
"Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it." (George Santayana).

We won't say more than that......
If that same Fela was to be alive, he will make more money on songs about Buhari. That's just the fact. Accept Buahri is more of a failure than our past leaders

The trunk ain't big enough to contain Generator set that will power the car.

Generator set to power car again?
Why not buy a fuel car at once? grin
And what is the usefulness of electric car in an archaic country like Nigeria?
Na every thing we see abroad we go copy?

It is good to exaggerate but do it minimally. Power supply is not that bad, how can you say 3hrs 95% common.
Yeah it's exaggerated.

Hyundai, unfortunately,
This can only be for Atiku and his goons he campaigned to share our national treasury money to during his campaign, no wonder he lost the election woefully.

When a number 2 citizen of a country has a company that import the largest number of generators into the country, how will they ever want us to have electricity?

When the President of a country spent a colossal 16 BILLION DOLLARS on Power and no single watt was added.
It became even worse than the electricity we had during the military regime he met on ground.



Truth will always be bitter, but it has to be said.
When a sitting president and vice President could start their own private universities while all the Government universities were on strike,
(Just like Obama and Biden or Trump and Pence having private universities in America while their universities were on strike due to poor funding)
what insolence could be more than that?

The Foundation has been destroyed, we are not praising this government, ( we gave them just 65% overall so far) but our point that many people misunderstood here is that , IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE, If it continued the way our country was going in 2015, many of you wailing now, would have been eating from the dustbin by now.
Things can only get better if we come together to build a new nation and leave out politics of bitterness in your hearts, even Jona has moved on.

My friend please stop twisting the narrative, there is nothing wrong in establishing private university provided it is of economic benefit for it people. Today as we speak the country is wallowing humongous debt that the next generation of Nigerian will have to bear the burden. The situation is so bad that you can even pinpoint a white dot of optimism on the Buhari administration dark screen of disappointment.
Mr Buhari doesn't have what it takes to be regional leader not to talk of National president, in fact his re-election is attestation to the fact that Nigerians does not understand what it takes to be a good leader.

There is a saying that only a fool is bitten twice by a snake in the same spot, it behoves to ask Nigerians, I inclusive, what was the rational behind electing Mr Buhari in the first place. Is first term antecedent as a military dictator was there for us to see but we refuse to acknowledge because we all got carried away with the Sai Baba syndrome. Today, we all can attest that this man is a colossal failure not because some un-forseen forces are pulling his administration down rather because his failure is inbred.

There is no doubt the Jonathan regime was government that was enshrined in lootocracy and that was why Nigerian opted for Mr Buhari who was rooted has incorruptible but unfortunately Nigerians were wrong in choice, Mr Buhari on taking over the mantle of leadership divided the country along religious and ethnic lines and he apponited individuals with no technocratic discipline as as head of ministry and parastatals.

by and large, Mr Buhari is a bad product that cannot be refurbished and most Nigerians should lower their expectation from this yeye government.

It simply means people in this administration have the same brain capacity with you, people that won't carry out a proper feasibility studies before opening their mouth to talk or make promises. PDP was killing the country and, even though people were still coping, you guys came up with juicy promises and the only sensible thing for us to do is to give you chance.

Fashola said to make eletrtricity stable was not a rocket science, we were all happy to hear that and our heart was full of hope, your daddy said 1# will equate 1$ we were clouded by need for change and a better future, so we believed those lies without proper scrutiny. Fast forwarded to five years later after you have been given the chance you crave, here we are with worse off situation than you met.
Our reserve is nothing to write home about, security situation is zero and to think your daddy is a retired general. Inflation is at its peak, naira has suddenly become ordinary paper and here you are scoring the failed administration 65%, are you not ashamed?

If you don't know the job, why send those that created the problems away? Let them stay and find solutions to the problems they created rather than coming to us every now and then to tell us the foundation is faulty. We know the foundation was faulty that was why we brought the suppose able hands in to help us, only for you guys to make us worse off in just 5 years. You want to fight corruption and your administration stink of corrupt practices to the extent of our nation becoming one of the most corrupt nation in the world.

I may not be good with statistics or words, but the truth is staring at us all. This administration duped us all!

No, you expressed yourself in a very good and understandable way.
And you made some very good points in what you wrote.
We are taking some positives with us in your post and for the few we don't agree with, we will let it slide.
Overall, we respect you voicing out.
A better Nigeria is all we want.
It will end in praise for us all.

There is nothing backward in that thinking, rather you people are the ones running beyond your shadow. How can you start planning to roof a house you have not even done the foundation?
