People should be metered first. Everyone before we even begin this talk.

Johnjustice:
As soon as IMF instructed they follow... America subsidize healthcare, food, transportation, and pay their citizens social security payments, UK subsidize food, healthcare, transportation, social care...IMF didn't tell them to stop, even though America's debt is more than 20trillion dollars now.

What is the government giving back to Nigerians, as owners of this Commonwealth, what are Nigerians enjoying?

All the money Nigeria makes from subsidy removal, from expanded taxes... allocations to governors have increased, but the masses can't have anything.

Only local solutions will solve local issues, IMF is only concerned about collecting back it's loan. A government is not a company, the aim of a company is to make profits, the aim of a government is to take care of the people with national wealth, government take care of the people through welfare, subsides, direct payments etc...I don't understand this Tinubu administration at all. Electricity subsidy is one of the ways government impact small businesses and all Nigerians, if they can't power their small shops, or power their fan to sleep peacefully at night, they will turn to crime. Does this government really want to destroy Nigeria?

NIgeria will remove the subsidy, and pocket the subsidy money, so nothing changes outside of the nation getting more unbearable.
Tinubu seems like the time of dummy IMF can dribble anyhow because he loves psuedo intellectuals and can barely function

femadesh:
200% increase in rate looming

God forbid, 1k is 13 unit in my prepaid meter and i spent 12k this evening on units, i pray that it will last for 2 week. Here is hot and fan is not enough so AC will be in use.

Take it off then, so we know where we are going.

But they are subsidizing Jerusalem and mecca pilgrimage

Jeez. Everything is subsidized in Nigeria. Nigeria is a socialist country.

Who cares.

Namaster:
But they can continue to subsidize DARKNESS?

Some areas have NOT seen power for over 48 hours.

Given this crazy HEAT, Nigerians now have to choose between BOILING ALIVE or buying petrol at CRAZY PRICES and foregoing dinner.

This is Tinubu's Nigeria.

Back to the gencos, estimated billing should be CRIMINALIZED!

It's MADNESS to give a 3-bedroom house 4 hours of power in every 24-hr cycle and then slam them with an electricity bill of #35K.

omo over here I can't remember the last time I saw light. It has been gen and solar we have been using to survive. The heat want to finish me here.

Am telling you, the subsidy removed, individuals in government pockets the money, economy shrinks, small businesses shut down, unemployment skyrocket, no money to spend, shops close down, people are frustrated, crimes increase. IMF is not here, we should not be listening to people who are at the other side of the globe. All these tightening of people's disposable income will ultimately lead to a vicious circle.

Nigerians thrive on their own, as long as prices are reasonable, this extremely high prices will push many to act abnormal.

Ur papa

All these coconut head leaders don't know anything. We are in deep shit. Oluwa gbawa

any country still getting it's cues for IMF in 2024 is doomed forever

Just hand this nation over to Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping.

Since you guys can't effective lead yourselves, apply for recolonizing.

When it comes to things that benefit the masses, they remember that the country is broke.

When it favors them, they damn all consequences.

I pity their moronic praise singers blinded by religion and tribal foolery

Go Abuja

Abeg who thought us subsidy sef ....all this money would have been used to better our lives and reduce our population... Those that don't need electricity from the Gencos would depend on Solar .. but manufacturer need electricity from Gencos ... Everything just dey punish us ..like say we offend person .. even Baba God dey send heat ...

IrepChrist:
Nigeria needs leaders that can create wealth. People that can think outside the box. We have the potentials but we lack visionary leaders.

Well said. The potential is there but we have visionless and clueless leadership

Where the electricity? They are subsidising darkness.

Generator republic

Honestly, I feel seriously ashamed as a Yoruba guy, especially educated ones supporting this evil government. Either during the election or now. I was stigmatized for supporting Obi an Igbo man. Thank God, I have been vindicated, few are still suffering and supporting this man, God have mercy

Hezzyluv:


Ontop the light we can't even see.

Share Prepaid meter, these sadist no gree make am available. Okay, make we use our money buy the pp meter, na another frustration again. Shey na crime to be a Nigerian ni

Prepaid is available at 90k but you might end up paying above 100k by the time you are done!

Not anymore . That was long time ago!

Exactly bro!
Where is the money saved from fuel subsidy so far? Anything that benefit the masses pains them. Heartless people

NGArmyTerrorist:
They're giving it to you people wotowoto! Food, light, Oil and gas etc Una must get sense! 8months never click ooh Continue teaching igbo people lesson and how to play polithieves.

You see this Adebayo,as we raised the Issues why the Lights is not forthcoming,in recent times and we said- is a dubious way of operations and will soon lead to removal of Electricity/ Power Subsidies,if at all there are Subsidies in the first instance!
So,Mr Adebayo,how has been your performance since you came into that department?
• Now , with the Power Minister Statements,Tinubu is about to remove Power- Electricity Subsidies,abi?
Was there any improvement at all in DISCOS performance?
• Who owns DISCOS- but those who could not performed when they were in Govt!
• Indeed, history is laying itself before Nigerians- No light,Fuel Subsidies have been removed and you can't enjoy it because of high price,
•Gas is now high Price.
• Foodstuffs is now high Prices- Rice per a bag is now 65k- 70K!
•A beans yellow plastic is between 3,500- N4000.
• Bread is no longer a Staple Food.
So, President Tinubu, what is going on in this Country- that Labourers and the Retirees can't feed well ,as even their Minimum Wage is not coming to them regularly! You even made a promise for Subsidies but till date,we don't know how much Subsidies have been accumulated!

Ofodirinwa:


any country still getting it's cues for IMF in 2024 is doomed forever

Absolutely...I wonder why we have an economic team, Minister of finance, budget, economy etc, and end up listening to IMF

Are we okay?

let's expect shege Banza in the increment of the tariff plan?

saintrow1:
Take it off then, so we know where we are going.

No!!!
Even if they take it off, it will make no difference, because the same leaders will pocket the money! It will only bring about more hardship. We should learn from the fuel subsidy removal. What have we benefited from the removal so far? Apart from uncontrollable inflation?

I got my own 250 k they keep on asking me that I will pay for this and that every thing is up to 250k

Hail Bayo Adelabu, second of his name, the Darkness Lord, to whom Light is a sin. He who sees power supply during harsh weather realities as an abomination.

Congregation: Hail Bayo x3. The Dark Lord, the anti-Light , Swallow and Destroy (NEPA) Light and give us Darkness Today.

You just like spewing rubbish. Even if we all agreed he's not fit for that ministry, can you match his intellectual prowess? See the way you addressed a former deputy governor of CBN as if you have reached such status in your life. Even if you have achieved something substantial in life which I doubt, is that how to address human being like you calling him a mad man?
