Serendipity2023:


does the agreement include that they pay for the electricity?

And why sell to them when we don't have enough ourselves -- we have circa 5000m mega watts.
Yes they have to pay.
If we allow them to build their own dam, we won't have enough water down here

So why are they still paying when its a diplomacy(agreement)?
Lifestone:

Why not try to understand stuffs before ranting. NNPC acquired OVH that owns all the retail stations of oando. That's why you see all OandO filing station now branded as NNPC retail. NNPC now own OVH 100%. What NNPC has done now is to allow their new company OVH to run the filing station professionally with an expat heading the business. I'm sure some people in NNPC is not happy with this.
On Power supply to Togo and Benin, there is an existing bilateral agreement for Nigeria to generate power on River Nigeria and sell power to the Countries along the River Niger. In exchange, these countries agreed not to build any Dam on River Niger. If they build Dam, there won't be enough water in River Niger in Nigeria, this will I turn affect our electricity generation Kanji Dam, irrigation etc check why River Euphrate dried up.
Na diplomacy

If we have enough to supply to other countries, how do we now have low power?
jaxxy:
So what? Keep supplying on credit



We generate very low power but what's worse is we don't even have enough distribution infrastructure to distribute this low power to Nigerians so we sell some to countries.

Wat of USA dat speaks many languages apart from English?
China too has numerous local languages apart from speaking Chinese.
kheny12:
yes that's why Europeans are developing. Each Europeans countries consist of people's with same language. Croatian speaks crotian, Hungarian speaks Hungarian, Spain speaks Spanish, Italian speaks Italian. Here in Nigeria different languages that are not peculiar to each other's were formed to becomes a country. Yoruba should have their own nation likewise to Igbo and hausa too.

We generate low power but still more power than we can distribute to homes due to very poor distribution infrastructures.

This poor distribution infrastructure make us sell unsed power to other countries to use.

majority of Americans speaks English as the first language. While those that speaks local languages are immigrant from different part of the world, majority of them are from neighboring mexico who speaks Spanish. Some hindi Chinese, vietnamese,African languages. And for China, majority of them speaks mandarin while Hong Kong speaks Cantonese.Nigeria problem is too much of not tribalism it will be religious fight. So if we all seperate we will de developed enough.

It's a Bilateral agreement and ther terms require them to pay. So they must pay. We have right to cut them off for not paying, but just like Mali Burkina Fasso and Niger, these things are not so straightforward

Let them build their dam na grin
U give them electricity because u don't want them to build their dam.... Make dem pay up Sha, FG 2 dey generous if na China now dem go Don seize Benin republic president private jet grin

The first two lines summaries the situation.
But it's my opinion that why all this back and forth exist is because if they are permitted to build dams on the River Niger, it will affect the amount of water coming to our dam and this will inturn affect what our turbines can generate.
