One prays they get their Biafra so that naked reality can hit them in their faces that Nigeria had really been a great help to them.Biafra would also give way to the disintegration of the forced marriage...this is my prayer...

Aareonakakanfo:
Fashola handling 3 sectors is a bad move

Power on its own is like mount Kilimanjaro.

Even his predecessors who handled just power alone were unable to achieve anything

Combining that with works and housing is hectic

razid:

He already had a template to work with. He has handled all those sectors as a governor. He just need to replicate it at the federal. I would have preferred him being given power or works alone but who knows, that might be a pointer to his presidency some day.

At least they have no excuse on Osodi/Apapa Expressway and there won't be any Obanikoro to throw spanner in his wheel any longer in Lagos. If he would listen to me, his first priority in South West should be Lagos/Ibadan, Oshodi/Apapa expressway. Another thing is that all the governors in South West can now fix federal roads in their domains as they now have an ally as Minister of Works.

zimoni:


haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Egbon, e jowo don't go there oooooo.

Lest awon iya will flee. Low-key(according to Aare), don't mind them ooooo. Dem dey claim retirees as if retiree dey lose form.

I dey laugh.

Power is an entirely different ball game here.No past minister has ever been successful in that position.

EPL is different from Champions league

I still think its a bad move

IyaIode:

It's called grooming, Fashola is more or less like the second president.

On a serious note, i think all the power sector needs now is the right policies, same for housing. These 2 sectors should be private sector driven.

9jacrip:

I'm in, as long as it is pro-Yoruba.

As you said, I would love for everyone on the train to be as straight as possible. I'm generally usually straight with someone even though my first few meetings with someone is usually based on observation but I'm mostly straight.

If the idea is going to get far, honesty and openness is germaine.

We may also need to consider a peace and conflict resolution arm considering exchange of ideas may get things heated up in the long run and we all handle things differently.

Eguerrilla talked to me about something like this at a point but it never materialized.

I hope this works.

Shymm3x:

What about power?
The benchmark would be 24hrs power supply, no?
How will he be able to achieve that with the corruption and forces in that sector?

He can replicate the template he was using in Lagos particularly those powering some sensitive government businesses in Lag. albeit on a muchmore larger scale now. I think he has also been an advocate of each state having control of power and energy resources. Maybe we will have to see a situation whereby any willing state can put up affordable megawatts independently without waiting for FG approval. I believe the only challenging sector is that of power and if going by what the VP said, they have some workable programmes in place.

Shymm3x:


They should have given him the works and housing ministry alone.

And let someone who's not a career politician - preferably a technocrat - to handle that sector.

I'm scared for him, to be honest.

That sector might end his career - I just hope he overcomes whatever they throw at him.

9jacrip:


I would like to think nominees for the positions would have gotten information on the ministry they'd likely be heading and given consent to it.

I suppose Fash believes he can cope.

As mad as Lagos was, dude broke Lagos ans Lagosians into bits.

We'll see how it goes.

Even if he knows he can't cope, he won't reveal it Black man

This looks suicidal but lets see how it pans out

modath:



Not at all... Kemi Adeosun's face gave it away, she almost jumped up from her seat, she must have been expecting state position or trade & investment..

9jacrip:



Aunty mi, e imagine Fashola and Fayemi leading Westen Region?

It appears as grooming indeed but I think if he becomes president of Naija, the political terrain may thwart his actual worth/performance.

Aareonakakanfo:

Aareonakakanfo:

Exactly! Some are using his Lagos performance to judge him

Performing at state level is one thing,performing at federal level is another thing

For a very paramount issue like power,you don't combine it with something else.

It makes no sense

IyaIode:


That will be dream come true.

Shymm3x:


What about vested interests, especially those involved into importing generators?

And how'll they be able to push a bill to allow states control power and energy resources through the legislative arm of government?

What about states that don't have the resources?

* I know you make a conscious effort to ignore my posts but must chip this in*

On the bolded, the Generator importers are 90% Romanis & as we all know, there is no love lost between them & the present govt....


* back to regular scheduled programming..

razid:

According to an expert I listened to sometimes, one Dr from UNILAG, he said the state could generate their own power up to about 1 or 2megawatt. That it's only when it's above that it would be linked to the national grid. So IMHO, I think they begin to have a cluster of small power generation in strategic places rather than going for a bigger one that would consume their resources and wouldn't be completed during their terms in office. For instance, Ogun State government should think of having an IPP in Agbara axis and another one probably in Sagamu.

On the vested interests, they are mostly the people we have been talking about. They have lost their grips on the FG, so I don't see them as threats except they want to dare Mr President.
