The "real thing" does not need all those kind of advertisement.

I hope you dont try it and then start acting "strangely"!
At your own risk.

So the bill wont be paid

And the people will continue to enjoy free of charge electricity for a few hours each day

And the DISCOS and GENCOS won't have money.

And improvements won't be made

And power supply will remain poor

And Nigeria will continue to suffer

But it isn't our fault, you see.

We need to make money out of thin air to fund our power sector.



You cannot give what you do not have

And i think you are one of the few people who understands how the power sector works.

IKEDC should distribute prepaid meters and stop bill estimation. Anytime one complain those staff will give excuse that the analogue meter is old and it has been tampered with and that it would be coded. Thieves who don't know their work

Nairaland atheists, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for! I want one prominent member of Nairaland's atheist community to volunteer for the removal of this fetish charm. Record the incident and upload it on YouTube so we can all watch it.

Back in 2001...GSM came to Nigeria. And they were private from the word go.

Back then, a sim card could cost you as much as N5000. Network services were bad. In the early days, we got charged high fees for seemingly poor services. Even interconnection between networks was difficult.

But we willingly paid their high fees, despite our jokes about MTN being a 'bitter connection', and ECONET(Now Airtel) being 'inspired to shortchange our wallets'.

Guess where all that cash went into.....expanding their network and even doing charity projects for Nigerians.(Their work conditions tho....another story).And by 2006...the worst was over. SIM cards were now going for N500 or less.

That was the idea the former government had in 2014 when they privatized our power system at the distribution and generation level.....the private sector would do what govt had failed to do for years....raise the money needed for power.

The needs are enormous. We have to replace and upgrade our transmission system. We have to increase generation massively. And we have to connect people to the grid. And our power needs are growing (Millions of Nigerians now own android phones...which chop power to charge).

So, when people refuse to pay their bills because the DISCOS are corrupt (remember how we used to call MTN and co evil, corrupt organizations too?), or because the bills are too high.....we are sabotaging ourselves.

And to make matters worse...the DISCOS and the GENCOS cannot take loans from the banks because banks think that power is too high risk. Banks were lending easily to the GSM companies ......but they wont lend to the DISCOS and GENCOS.

And govt has paid its 'counterpart funding'

So, inasmuch as things are not fair....we are doing ourselves worse by refusing to pay our bills, by bypassing our meters, by doing illegal connections, etc.

And we still complain about poor power supply? Why won't power supply be poor? When we are not paying for it? And where do you expect the DISCOS to get money from? It is even trillions we need....not millions, trillions.

Nigerians....and their governments and parties (APC owed Abuja Disco millions of naira once upon a time) better pay up. Or we renationalize power.....in this period of lack of money.

Excuse me for sounding like a propaganidst.....but.....we cannot get what we do not pay for.

People paying bills is not d problem.. U give me bill of 10k for lite of 12hrs in month nd u xpect me to b. Happy... If d disco want to b sincere share pole mounted prepaid meter nd stop blaming pple not payin there bill

Yoruba and Juju are like this ...........................

Nigerians are really funny. Na by force to use electricity.

and you want people to pay for darkness.

Its like this ppl dont know that u r charged for the light u have already used. If u dont pay for the amount of electricity u have already used then dont expect the authorities not to cut the light. Btw these ppl that cant afford on and off elctricity, will they be able to afford constant electricty? Deceive themselves with charm, please if nepa de fear to cut the light make them pay me make i climb go cut am. Afterall na red cloth wen nor get any power dem carry go tie for dia

agitator:

And where do you expect the DISCOS to get money to make things better?

When banks won't loan them money, and the government is no longer funding power like it used to?

Money does not grow on trees.The money to fund power is going to come from our pockets....just like it does elsewhere.

Oga oya go pay Iya Bose money, so that she fit get money go market buy rice, come cook and sell so you fit see food to buy chop.

And people still wonder why the black race is not progressing.

Imagine and enlightened educated man saying people should pay for darkness, so that the disco's can have money to invest to make profit from the same people.

This country is really a zoo.

So, where do we get money to make the improvements needed to make light run 24/7?

You want light without paying for it. That is not how it works.

What alternative do you propose to the discos? Discos don't have the trillions needed to make the improvements

So by your logic, elsewhere people paid for non-existent power, then the companies had enough to fund their projects, hmmmmmmm, that is a new one.
