The poor societal values are what breeds these acts of vandalism. When people become
rich overnight here, nobody gives a hoot where the money comes.

Also, the police, through poor policing and corruption, routinely gives criminals the license to go overboard. For instance, around Airport hotel in Ikeja, there are fraudulent forex traders that operate openly. It is not that they are never apprehended. The problem is that they are never arrested but always released after settling. You keep seeing the same faces.

Zero tolerance policing by cops treats small time crime severely as they observed that many of the criminals who engage in small crimes are also involved in big crimes as well.

Most criminals know themselves. The buyer's of these stolen power equipments are well known. Many of these people have been arrested in the past for similar of fences and later released. If the police want to find these criminals that committed these acts of vandalization, it can be done within 7 days tops. The police know where buyer's of such equipments. They may have arrested them in the past.

Criminals and those purchasing stolen good need to be punished to the proper degree. (Read Eccl 8:11)

That's the reason why power ought to be decentralized. And each state generate and supply their own power let's see how vandals will go round the 36 states to vandalize power installments.
exactly...the government of the day and a lot of their followers are so stupid not to see the solution to our problems right in front of them...why lament when states can go their separate ways and produce what they need...

Let's see how saboteurs will be going around vandalising state properties...

See the effect of an over centralized system.. same thing with other sectors of the economy. Everything is centralized. No room for flexibility or something.
If every region has its own independent grid network.. a collapse in one region won't affect the others. Now a single tower collapse, the whole country is plunged in darkness.
Now terrorists have found another way to wreck havoc by this inane statement.
Simply bomb one high voltage tower and everywhere is plunged.
This country is bleeped aswear.
We're just ruled by apes and baboons
This compulsive nature to control everything makes governance too difficult and cumbersome. The US we all love to admire and quote run an independent grid system. A failure in NY can't trip off power in OH or TX.
Put every damn thing on the concurrent list, excluding territorial defense and foreign policy and watch how real development comes in.
the question is will the next president push for state independence or true federalism? Those are the kind of leaders Nigerians should be behind..not this fake assss old folks who have nothing to offer...

IS IT A SCAM OR BREACH IN NIGERIA?

You Bought , A Pole, You Bought The Cable & You Bought The Meter. And You Contributed Money To Buy Or Replace The Community Transformer.

As Soon As You Have Done All These, They Automatically Become Their Property.

Then The Fraudster Electricity Distribution Companies Will, Without Taking The Meter Reading, Send Outrageous Estimated Bills To You For Power Never Consumed. And If You Dare Raise A Question Against Their Barefaced Robbery, They Will Come And Remove The Cable You Bought With Your Money As Their Property.

Then You Will Be Charged What They Call Re-connection Fee To Get Your Cable Fixed Back.

And You Will Have To Bribe Their Personnel To replace A melted Fuse Or You Will Remain Perpetually In Darkness And Still Pay The Bill At The End Of The Month.

The Most Heinous Part Of Their Corporate Crime Against The People Is The Revenue Target They Set For Their Personnel As To How Much They Intend To Rob Nigerians Every Month.

Let this post go round, this daylight robbery from Electricity Distribution Companies Must Stop.

Next time elect leaders that have ready solutions and not run after phantom reputations.
Leaders that know what to do and not those who will begin to ask around when in office.
And you know this by asking them NOW!!!.... and not deciding who you will vote for until you are satisfied with their responses.

SAY NO: To vague promises and empty propaganda.
We need SOLUTIONS.
We want DETAILS.... to discuss and debate.
That is our role as qualitative citizens in this business of democracy.
To set the standards for those that seek to lead us.

it has been decentralised base on the last constitution amendment

Note that the Constitution has yet to be amended. The ones that scaled senate and house of reps have been sent to the 36 state houses is assembly for ratification. Each amendment then needs 70%of states to concur before the Constitution is amended.

Buhari is a disaster. He now blames others for shortcomings in governance. On a scale of 1 to 100, he scores a 5.

In some areas, his principles character has been an asset. His poor education has rendered almost anything else a disaster.

I needed to pay for something online. The purchase was declined as I would be going above my monthly limit which was pegged at $50.

Prior to Buhari assumption of office, the daily limit was $1,000 a day! cry cry

It's shallow to blame everything on government as you have done as though the country has no thieves. There are those who steal things made of iron like Bridge and road railings, manhole covers, Rail tracks and power towers.

So to say its people in government for the purpose of contracts is very shallow.

Yes! But the reason it won’t happen is because power will be cheaper in the south and costlier in the north. They all know what they’re doing.

Not necessarily!! Today solar is about the cheapest form of electricity. The North has plenty of solar potential.
