Yes, a coward who told the apartheid state he was prepared to die when he faced the death death penalty.

Dude, we have sooooo many heroes, you could leave Mandela out and we would still give you a long list of heroes that movies and books and songs will continue to be written about.

Nigeria has nothing. Not even a fraudulent hero.

Talking of Denzel Washington and South Africa have you monkeys seen that movie Safehouse? It shows the true reality of SA, the whites run the show, they only spoke Xhosa/Zulu for about 10 seconds in the whole film but it had a full afrikaans section and the blacks were only shown when they went to the dirty Soweto shack city and when they were in the streets protesting about their pathetic lives under the rule of their white masters. Very realistic movie I recommend it to everyone here.

Power supply drops to 2,880MW
January 8, 2015 by ‘Femi Asu 19 Comments

Power supply from the national grid to households and businesses in the country tumbled below 3,000 megawatts on Tuesday, almost a month after it dropped to 2,954.52MW before rebounding.

Power generation fell to 2,948.45MW on Tuesday, while 2,880.31MW was sent out, according to data obtained from the Presidential Task Force on Power on Wednesday.

The downturn in power generation was attributed to the sabotage of the Trans Forcados Pipeline on Sunday, January 4, 2015.

Power generation on the day fell to 3,415.21MW, while 3,314.99MW was sent out, according to the Federal Ministry of Power.

The quantum of electricity available for distribution to various classes of consumers as of December 29, 2014 was 4,112.29MW out of the 4,389.7MW generated, but this fell to 3,415.21MW on Sunday, according to the ministry.

The Special Adviser on Gas to the Minister of Power, Mr. Frank Edozie, in a telephone interview with our correspondent, said, “The reason power supply is down is that there is not enough gas and the reason there is not enough gas is because of sabotage of gas pipelines.

“The pipelines have been regularly vandalised in the last few months. The Trans Forcados Pipeline has been down. The last incident occurred on Sunday. The previous one was last Wednesday. The pipeline was fixed and as it was about to be commissioned, it was vandalised again at various points.”

The country achieved the highest peak generation of 4,517.6 MW of electricity on December 23, 2012.

Respondents in the latest governance poll conducted by NOIPolls for the month of December 2014 rated President Goodluck Jonathan poorly in terms of power supply.

See this is exactly my point. You talk to a Nigerian about heroism and they tell you about riches. You talk to them about universal heroes and they talk about local celebrities. Universal heroes inspire people across nations, generations and ages. They become legends that people draw inspiration and lessons from no matter where on the planet they are from. Abraham Lincoln. Che Guevara. Pure inspiration. No Nigerian ever did that. Least of all the people that you list. Man, you wanna talk about someone who was colonised by queen victoria and then awarded a sword of honour as a colonial subject? Only a Nigerian would honour cowardice like that. That's why the people that you praise are not universal heroes. You all produce cowards.

stillchris:


Nigerians are not weaklings like south africans. we don't need heroes but had great men who without appetite for media worship and blood of the innocent fought against tyrants who ruled during the military era. great men who did't seek permission from the west or bargain the freedom if Nigerians for cheap western acolades.(Fela, ken saro wiwa, Abiola etc) those men fell and more are still rising to carry on the struggle. that is Nigerians for you. strong people who don't wait for a hero made by westerners to scam them.

so yes.. Nigeria has no heroes but great men who also took part in freeing your so called heroes from their apartheid dungeons.

you should be more concerned with how you'll be able to afford a generator cos you'll be needing it too. dummy


THE people of South Africa are learning to live in the
dark. Their beleaguered power utility, Eskom, is unable
to meet electricity demand and in November
reintroduced a tortuous schedule of rolling blackouts
known as “load shedding”. South Africans now check
electricity reports that read like weather forecasts: “There is a medium probability of load shedding today
and tomorrow, with a higher probability on Thursday
and Friday,” said a recent Eskom tweet. Newspapers
print survival tips and “load shedder recipes” for food
you can prepare without electricity. And there are
bleak jokes aplenty. “Q: What did South Africa use before candles? A: Electricity.” The power cuts are hurting an already stagnant
economy, estimated to have expanded by just 1.4% in
2014. Both big industry and small businesses are
feeling the pinch. Meanwhile Eskom has warned that
the blackouts could drag on for months, perhaps even
years, as it struggles with a maintenance backlog and a barrage of technical problems at its ageing power
stations. There are delays in bringing new capacity
online, particularly at Medupi, a heralded new coal-
fired plant whose completion has been endlessly
postponed.

Abe Lincoln the African slave owner? Mugu.

"Man, you wanna talk about someone who was colonised by queen victoria and then awarded a sword of honour as a colonial subject?" Of everything you ever said on this forum this is the only thing I agree with. No Nigerian or African should be happy about receiving anything other than reparations along with millions of severed European heads on a plate for what was done to our lands.

Other than that you need to admit you are still being ruled over by the whites you only have had independence for 20 years but you think we are the cowards? You people are stup1d. What did Mandela do for blacks other than making all South Africans blacks look like submissive cowards.

Shut your fuc.king mouth slave, nobody takes you serious, you know what he said is true, you southies are slaves in your own land everyone around the world knows, you big bad scary zulus should be embarrassed, you people disgrace Africa, all your farmers are white, you people cant even set up one farm to feed yourselves and you want to boast? I laugh in my language.

tanzania mobilized soldiers after they defeated the ugandan army under gen. idi amin,they marched towards SA to confront the allied front and defeated the SADF on many frontiers.the least you could do is to appreciate their efforts to free you from slavery.

You do need heroes, you just don't have any.

no we don't. Nigerians are brave people naturally. only weaklings like south africans need heroes.

If I had no girlfriend, I'd say I don't need one.

sure you would. seeing as you have spoken from experience

You need a vision, you have none.

based on your opinion? thank God for that. i see how you heroes' visiins have freed south africans from economic and social slavery

You need principles, you have none.

if getting bailed out jail as a bargain for dropping your freedom movement is a principle to be adored, the i must agree

You need something to be courageous for, you have none.

we are not weaklings like you. Nigerians are brave people. while you were struggling for identity, we were actually doing the saving of other african nations. including yours.

You need precedents from generations gone by. You have none.

sure, Hollywood has not recognized them for licking western asss and selling our freedom doesn't mean we don't speak of our great men

[s]You don't knew where you are going cause you don't even know where you came from and have no pedigree.[/s]
gibberish

All heroes in every nation come out of a specific set of circumstances. Nigeria does not have that. You have never had and will never have anything to shape your destiny.

big brother of Africa with no contender is enough to rubbish your petty comment. Nigeria has fought for Africa including SA. we shaped your own destiny


No Nigerian could EVER inspire THE WORLD into action.

because no great men of ours will sell our freedom for western media acolades... duuhh!!

Nothing that your soldiers could draw strength and inspiration from, so they run from the enemy.

President Jacob Zuma has blamed apartheid as the
root cause of South Africa’s electricity woes, noting
that the system was built to funnel power to white
homes. “The problem is that energy was structured
racially to serve a particular race, not the majority,”
. But this is cold comfort for a country now united in darkness. Eskom’s woes—crumbling old power
stations, delays in the building of new plant.

EVarn:
2900MW of electricity is quite pitiful for a country as big as nigeria,even zimbabwe can boast a more coherent power sector.cluelessness needs to be firmly shoved out of our political arena,corruption needs to be wiped out and transparency introduced.notwithstanding,SA is in a worse situation than nigeria,and i daresay,the situation is deteriorating at a rather apaling rate.SA's economy is run on government electricity;and if electricity declines,then the already useless economy will dissolve like cream in coffee.your health and medical facilities depend on electricity;and if electricity falls,then your already HIV-ridden deathtrap of a country will experience an upward thrust in mortality rate.lets not talk about households and public facilities,its likely to spell doom

perfecto.

mandela was a coward who preferred media worship than total freedom of the same people he fought for.

go to SA blogs and online media and read comments from the so called rainbow nation and you'll ask yourself how peoole can live under such pretence.

blacks in SA are stilk fighting for freedom both economically and socially. mandela don scam dem wella.

Now you see how important electricity is, imagine how a country with 4000 mw for years, with a population of 170 mill maggots, is surviving. It must be hell...

so relax we will never turn out like nigeria, that wont happen. in SA its just load shedding: a last resort to balance electricity
supply and demand.

You can dream for a doom, but you will wait till your eye balls pop out...
