Honestly, it's a Laudable proposal and I hope it is sustained eventually.However, what about states like Ekiti, Osun, Adamawa, Ebonyi etc who probably do not have the Financial Strength and laid down Blueprints like Lagos for Power Generation nko....these states go come dey look Lagos like London ...abeg make them do the check and balance well so that all other states can be carried along.

They have Elected leaders.

Stop telling lies about Ghana. Electricity is not cheap in Ghana no mean say you go start to add sugar and salt put. I was resident in Ghana all this things you wrote are lies.

You people think everybody are like you who lie for fun...


I can show you an example of derr bill with numerous charges....

JetStar:



The major reason why electricity is failing in Nigeria is that people want it, but they cannot afford to pay super high rates and you can't blame them that much. Nigerian workers don't earn much to be able to afford N200/KWh electricity. If they could, many people would be able to run petrol generators 24/7 without much conplain when the price was about N250. Don't say it's pessimism. It's just one of the uncomfortable realities plaging Nigeria.

Do you know what it takes to run gen 24/7 @ 250 naira? Even someone that earns much will complain bitterly. A tank of Average Generator is 15 litres. 250×15= 3750 and that will take you maximum of 15hrs which is less than a day. Please don't come and type nonsense again i take God beg you.

How much is the minimum wage in UK?
Pay Nigerians that and they can afford what UK residents pay for electricity.

How much is your house rent for a year in Nigeria? Let's start from there.

Awon pessimists tun ti de. Una must sha find a reason to lament and complain, even before the initiative kicks off. Guy, you'll always have alternatives; you can simply fuel your gen and use that instead if you feel the cost of steady electricity is too much for you or better still remain in darkness while those that value the development pay for it in peace, I'm sure nobody will beat you.

If Una go Ghana Una go say they better pass Nigeria because of their (very expensive) relatively stable electricity. Nigeria is gradually moving in the direction of providing stable electricity but the perpetual pessimists and wailers would have none of that. They must always find cause to wail.

He can as well go back to his home state to enjoy relatively stable and cheap power at #5/unit

You know what kvetching means? All obidients are bunch of kvetching ingrates that doesn't deserve to be referred to as Nigerians but Biafrans.

Imagine, Biafrans have been fighting to have a country not bigger than Oyo state as their own since Independence, yet Yorubas and Hausas have been preventing them from committing economic suicide, even though they have cultural link in more than 10 west African states...with more reasons to break up Nigeria.

BEDC is the biggest fraud that ever happened to Delta state and Mr Sheriff the governor has to replace them or call them to order, especially in Asaba we can't boast of 20hrs of power supply in a full week, some days you don't even see light, like it's so absurd, they only generate the light for the rich and industries and named it 33line were bills a month are from like 75k - 1m.

Nigerians want 247 light buh if they bring the cost and start telling them to pay dey will still complain....


Electricity never cost finish na bypassing of Meter left and right everywhere....

Giving 24 hours electricity without reduction of poverty, increase in salary / minimum wage among the populace will be good for businesses, but not too beneficial to individual household. It will be like giving generator to every household, majority of them will not be able to use it for more than six hours daily with how expensive fuel is.

It seems most of you prefer to use Generator to run your homes. The problem of this country is the citizens. If you travel to UK you will be screaming UK have constant Electricity and you will gladly pay the bill....lol. But in Nigeria you one to spend 3k for 1 months...lol

use India instead of UK. Now compare.

Then you start reducing your electricity to all this energy saver of 5 watt bulb and only Fan..


If you can afford to fuel your Gen when Fuel was at 180 then you can afford any tariff they bring...


People even do it now anything that consume light people don't use it with dere prepaid buh people that can afford the charges don't mind they will use it...

How much is it now sir,
If it can me steady many people won't mind, electric power seems to be one of the basic things for business to survive.

They are really trying currently. I pray they continue this way. Continuity is key.

Imagine paying 50,000 a month on a salary of 30,000 a month or let me say 10,000 a month

Doesn’t work that way. The standard of living should reflect

You people just talk without much reasoning, someone that earns 30k per month can not possibly have a gadget or appliances that will consume what will cost him 10k bill a month, unlike estimated bill you are in charge here,

if you own a prepaid meter you can control your consumption to fit into your budget by regulating what you use in your homes
Nigerians should learn how to throttle what they consume, schedule how you use your home appliance, don't just ON everything down, for instance, the atmosphere is cold you can do without AC/Fan or ice cold water, use some appliances only when the need arise

You can control how much you consume by switching to low-energy appliances, Nigerians just need to evolve into urban

Can't they just do it? Why are they shouting about what they may not do?

Some of you in this country have still not tired of propaganda and suffering. The politicians, through their propaganda machines, tell people what they want to hear but fail to do what they want. You see nothing wrong so long he is from Yoruba

Oga morning.
As said months ago, in my place, I have been paying 210 per unit all these while. Though it is 24hrs electricity as the premises utilises, both HD ie transformer and generators. Omo 210! 10k for 46 units, 5k for 23!
You turn on 1 Ac, fridge and freezer and watch 5k go daily. Lol.
I had to, apply for ikedc Meter ohh, despite protest from the facility managemet. ₦69 per unit. Installed last week. Meenn, you cannot imagine the relief . ₦7k for 100 units!
What even make me write this is that Supprisenly, the electricity is at least 23h daily! For the last 3 days it has not gone off for 1 minute!
Walai, the light is 24h. You do not need generators.
Meanwhile, I was informed that they increased the ikedc charges codedly from ₦50 to 69 recently.

In East Asia with similar income levels to southern Nigeria, electricity is cheap relatively between $0.07 to $0.15/kWh without any subsidy. Stop using US and UK when giving examples relative to Nigeria.

Femmyfamous4u:


Make the light dey first. People go to the US/UK with uninterrupted power supply. Do you think it comes cheap?
