It's you that doesn't reason before you talk. How do you know that the poster is an Igboman or woman?.
Why should an individual commit a crime and you find pleasure in heaping the blame on a whole tribe?
PDP governors, were performing governors before, both in the S'East and S'South. Think of the days of Peter Odili, Wike, Amaechi,Victor Attah, even GodsWill Akpabio. Udenwa was also a performing governor in his days. There's nothing wrong with PDP, as a party, but individuals who are there.
Labour Party has also produced good governors in the days of Oshiomole, Mimiko, so if Otti is doing, it's in their tradition.
So reason before you talk and don't heap the blame of someone's sin on a tribe.

I will not dignify you and give you the response you are looking for.

Whiteshield:
You sit in the East but you are stretching neck to cry that a South South state is a beacon of growth in the Eastern corridor. Why can't you pick a state in your region as an example of growth?
Or progress is a taboo in the East?
Akwa Ibom isn't even in the East.

If Pdp were such a fantastic party, why did you vote them out in Abia?

You are ing LP but crying that someone decamped from Pdp. You people are not even serious.

They hardly reason before the talk. They couldn’t fix their own state yet bothered about fixing another state. You begin to wonder if they have followcome mental issues

Tinibu has crippled oppositions. Anyone thinking any opposition stands a chance against tinibu is delusional no matter the region that opposition is from.

Back to your question - I honestly do not think PDP is even interested or has the capacity as at now to unroot Tinibu, it comes across to me like PDP is planning towards 2031. By then, Wike and his family will be decamping back wage war against whoever.

Whatever it is, the country needs serious revolution. Tinibu’s romance with and west is a bad omen to us and west Africa. We have become the laughing stock of the continent. Both our president and the citizens are not respected in west Africa or Africa in general. It’s a shame, it’s embarrassing, it’s a slap and we have never been this low before. Almighty Nigeria reduced to an irrelevant institution in Africa. Kai, our leaders have cheated us. Buhari has completely destroyed us and Tinibu wants to do the burial. What sets of wicked leaders we have. We as citizens though deserve the leaders we have to some extend. Upon all that, we re-voted Buhari to finish the 8years, then vote in Tinibu (anyone telling you tinibu did not win 2023 elections has serious case of mental issues) all because of religion. North wouldn’t stop until the see that the country is completely destroyed (I am a Northerner before you say jack). No any hope of education, mass skill acquisition, industrialization, just killing, hate preaching and have sex. What a region, what a country, what set of leaders. No one coming to save this region of country until we collectively decide to. Tinibu, continue your agenda of romancing with and making us the laughing stock of west Africa.

Stray bullets straight to binta Obi

Gerrard59:

How much did this set up cost you?

7.5m

ibechris:
U are lucky,I am on band A but that isn't my problem,my expenses per month is close 1.2million naira.

It's if I am not making progress at all,just this first quarter of the year,I expended about #5,996,000. When I checked my expense book,it was like a dream honestly.

But sincerely speaking,If i had depended on my salary,I would have ran mad.

I am just wondering if those that are not working are feeling the heat of this istration,cos they seem not to be complaining like us.

My rent per month for a two bedroom apartment in Abuja here is #208,300. For a year it's #2,500,000.

House hold expenses wants to kill me oooh my country people.

I had to stop tracking my monthly expenses because it was giving me mental issues. No month I don’t spend more than 1 mil. No need to explain to some here as majority wouldn’t even understand.but its crazily scary

[quote author=overdrive post=135289775]

Kindly outline how much it cost you to completely switch to solar. I spend #10k a week on electricity. Band A to be precise.
Sometimes I am happy when they take light.[/

All depends on how much you can afford. There is a set up for 1.5m and there is also a set up for 15m. I first set up cost about 500k (2021). While my second set up cost about 7+m (2024). All comes down to what you want to power and how much you are ready to spend

richmond500:
I use to hear "inflation is coming down.

I do not see how it is coming down o.
N10,000 only gives me around 40kwh of electricity which lasts me for only 2weeks to power

•my AC for like 1hr daily
•Fridge is powered for around 10hrs
•Ceiling fan is powered for around 15hrs daily
•And 3 light bulb around for 7hrs.

I spend around 20k monthly on just light bill.
Light bill and rent alone cost around 55k per month, rent is 400k per year. it outrageous.

I am jealous of you. Before I stopped using Napa completely, I was spending 170k/month on electricity in my two bedroom apartment. Appliances includes: deep freezer, fridge, 1.5hp ac (10to 15hrs daily), fans, bulbs, kitchen electronics, 3 tvs. Now I am completely off grid through the use of solar


*modify - I see people asking my solar set up:

Initially, I was using nepa together with a 2.5kva inverter + 2pcs 220ams battery (no s). After I relocated to a new place with band A, the elect bill suffocated me. I discarded my both nepa and upgraded my solar system. Now I am using a 10kva inverter, 15kwh lithium battery and 16pcs of 500w s in my 3 bedroom apartment. This powers my freezer, inverter fridge, washing machine, water dispenser, 2pcs of 1.5hp ac, 4pcs TV, fans and bulbs. Mind you, solar will make you learn load management even more than when you are using nepa. All the applainces are on from 8am to 5pm. Then I start switching off some so I can use my ac at night (I put ac at 28/29 degrees + fan to circulate the cold air). Not for one day have a gone even for 10 minutes without light since I put this set up. Solar is expensive no doubt, but it is worth it at the end

In Nigeria, never allowed yourself to be killed. The killer might walk free, leaving your kids and parents as the genuine losers. Your spouse will definitely move on at some point. Heed to the posters advice. LEAVE NOW

I own two cars: Camry 2010 and corrolla 2006 model. Both cars always have full tank, so I never really measured the fuel consumption the way the poster stated. However, the Camry obviously consumes more fuel than the corrolla. The corrolla is rugged, stands the test of time and once you repaired it, it tends to not give any issues for a while. I imported my Camry directly from US in 2022, so I never had issues with it till date aside oil change and brake pad. I consider it relatively new, but I can tell it wouldn’t withstand the ruggedness of the corrolla. Although I enjoy it more than the corrolla because it’s softer and sweet to drive.

Looking at the crippling energy sector in Nigeria, solar inverter is the way to go. Personally, I used a 10kva + 15kwh lithium battery in my 3 bedroom apartment, and I am off grid. I will say it’s worth it and never had issues with it as I am doing load management.

Share you experience using solar and what is your advise for those we want to go solar

Dogalmighty17:
The Nigerian society we've all grown up in only answers to these two things. Money or Connection. There's no denying this.

Our country is not one that answers to hardwork, dedication nor talent/skill. To break out in Nigeria, either money speaks for you or Connection goes ahead of you. So let's have it. Which is your pick and what is your reason?

Look around you. You must have know of some highly popular and connected politicians few years ago that where in power and had connections all over. Some years later, they got broke and the connection disappeared. See, once you don’t have money, forget it. The connection you thought you had will disappear, no one will answer your call again

[quote author=omoadeleye post=135033105]

😆 Some of you no get common sense.


Or probably we can say some of you lacks education hence why y'all are suffering.

Because brainless people are meant to suffer [/quote.
My brother. We have some of the educated illiterates in the whole world. You begin to wonder when you hear some of these people make comment

U

Jagabanbattle:
Only a dumb person will think the way u just did.

0 votes? Because there’s no APC member in Northern Nigeria?

Because those who hold POWER under Tinubu presidency in Northern Nigeria want to lose their influence?

A completely delusional fellow. He can realistically say Tinibus vote might reduce in the north but chose to be delusional. Goo check my 2023 postings, I am a northerner that worked vote and ed Atiku. 2027, I will still Atiku. But realistically, we will won’t have enough votes to defeat Tinibu. Tinibu is consolidating votes of northern Christian’s plus the die hard ApC .

Personally, I rather have Reno as an adviser of tourism/minister of tourism than Ambassador. Not because he isn’t capable of being ambassador, but because he fits in more as someone who can project the country positively to rejig that sector

SoliBayNG:


People with less appliances are able to run on those. My mate just installed a 6.5kva/10kwh and uses 2 ACs deep freezer and a tv, lasts until daybreak

Yes you can do that. The thing is if you overload, you wear out the system quickly. Over load ends up reduce the life span by years.

Benjosh123:
I'll advice you as a Solar englneer and as a perskn who has been using solar also.

1. Your upgrade is very okay with your new Inverter and lithium batteries....

2. For heavy load, it's advisable to use when the sun is at it's peak, like your A.C and Pumping Machine..

3. Go for an inverter freezer preferably Haier Thermocool or Scanfrost, as they have the more compatible measures with your inverter system..

I'm giving you this counsel as a Solar Engineer and a End also.. for more clarity, you can reach out via. 07060674810.

Thank you Engineer for your counsel. I have 1pc non-inverter deep freezer and 1pc inverter double door fridge. I will use both only during sun peak. Night time, will definitely be switching off the freezer

xpgroove:


It will last long if you dont over load it. Dont drain it, never use it below 40%. Always check and make sure you dont drain it. it will last minimum 10 years if well maintained

you are right. Load management will have to be followed strickly

Omoapena:



wow

how much did it cost you to get the 10kva + 15kwh lithium battery?



hope you know you can't completely go off grid with this setup without solar .

With the 10kva, I have 500w mono s (15pcs). For the 2.5kva, I plan to buy 2pcs of 300w s. What’s your advice. Cost me around 7.2m. I bought them in Nov last year

zeestone99:


Yes u can use ur ac with ur 10kva and solar s. However mk sure u have enough s so you can also have extra power to charge your battery. Cheers

I have 500w mono s- 15pcs. Will it be enough?

MrOIG:

Yes you're good to go especially during sun peak hours
But let me ask, how many s are you using?

Hopefully with good load management, should be fine. I am using 15pcs of 500w half cut mono

Elusive001:




No go strangle your batteries with non-inverter anything oooo. Abeg ask experts

Definitely will do load management. Of course, I am not gonna on all appliances at once. My query was if during sun peak, I can on my 1.5hp non-inverter ac at 24’ for example

xpgroove:


Your 15kwh na better backup, You wont have issue runnig your 1.5 through out the day and night on (24 to 30 degree).

So I was told but with good load management so as to prolong battery life

Menclothing1:



Check the watt of your fridge and ac my fridge is not Inverta fridge but low power consuming American brand it work for my 5kw lithium battery
And the good thing about solar light under 2 hrs my fridge and freezer compartment is already frozen but if it’s Nepa light it will take 6hrs

Thank you I will check

I have been using a non-inverter freezer for over 5 years now and never had issues with. I recently bought an inverter fridge, about to start using it next month. Hopefully I can learn from this topic. I did this because I want to go completely off-grid. I am using a 2.5kva inverter + 2pcs 220ah batteries. However, I bought a new 10kva + 15kwh lithium battery to add to it. Hence, i am having to go for solar friendly appliances.

I have 1.5hp non-inverter ac. Can I connect this to my inverter set up and use only during sun peak hours?

PLEASE I WILL APPRECIATE SOMEONE WITH SOLAR KNOWLEDGE TO ADVICE ON THIS PLAN OF MINE

Congratulations to the Dangote brand. This is a great feat, not just for him but for the country at large. We hope that more Nigerians with resources will start establishing industries in different sectors so our dear country can regain its lost glory. More industries, more exports, fewer imports, and a stronger economy.

That being said, I tried to search for information regarding the cost of buying this car but couldn’t find any. Could someone privy to such information share it with us?
Additionally, what kind of policies can the government implement to ensure that such industries are not allowed to fail due to low patronage?
Lastly, how can an average Nigerian afford such a car?"

Here is a brief recap of what is actually happening.
Before anything else, let’s start from pre-border era.

It’s a know fact that anytime that resides in between borders of two countries, will definitely have its people separated in between the two border countries. E.g, Hausa people of sokoto, samsara katsina state borders have its people both in Nigeria and Niger. After British drew the border lines which we all call countries today, the Hausa people of Niger became Niger citizens while Hausa people of Nigeria became Nigeria citizens.

Tutsi are a tribe found in border town between Congo (kivu province) and Rwanda. To be clear, president paul Kagame is a Tutsi by tribe. For several years, the Tutsi in Congo(M23) have been crying of marginalization by the Congolese government. The Congolese government have asserted severally during the past years that Tutsi are Rwandese citizens and not Congolese. Because of these marginalization, the Tutsis in Congo had to pick up arms to defend themselves and their people from exploitation of resources in their local region in Congo by the Congolese government. This became the genesis of the war. Now that the Congolese government doesn’t recognize them as Congolese, the M23 needs money and resources to sustain it self and its militant. Their region being rich in minerals, they delve into mining of the resources for export so they can get money. Part2

They only option to which the can export is through Rwanda since they are not recognized the congolese government. Now this is where the alleged “sponsorship by Kagame” comes in. As they are Tutsi by tribe, naturally Kagame will have sympathy for his tribal men. Thus, Kagame gave them access to export through Rwanda and most likely share a certain percentage with Rwandan government. This naturally makes them bond with the Rwandese.
As it is now, Congolese govt is saying Rwanda is sponsoring the M23 and they are not Congolese, they must go back to Rwanda. On the other hand, Kagame is denying this accusation and asserting that they are Congolese and not Rwandese, they will not be accepted as Rwandese just because they are Tutsi by tribe.
Hope this summary helps

It is difficult to say who is the best performing governor as governors have different spending might. You cannot compare Lagos governor with nasarawa governor for example, as their financial strength is not on the same level.

Having said that, I will give my two cents as to who are the best performing governors in each region. I must it that it’s just a mere opinion.

SS: I can’t actually finger a particular governor is who level above the others in this zone. Seems these set of governors are level below previous governors from this region. Tempted to say Fubara of Rivers state

SE: it’s a toast between Mbah and Alex Otti. I leave this to those with more knowledge.

SW: no doubt Lagos governor is visionary, but at the same time has more spending power. I will still give it to him though followed by Ondo governor

NE: Fintiri of Adamawa. This is not even a debate. Only those with limited knowledge of this region will call Zulum. Fintiri takes this one

NC: Niger followed by Plateau. Bags of Niger is showing ambition to transform Niger state through Agriculture

NW: Seems nothing exceptional and transformational going on in this region. Not sure who I can say is level above the others. Someone should help here
