​@Fe Ch You're talking patent nonsense. Its the politicians and corruption thats kept Nigeria in darkness. - Dangote has created jobs, brought inward investment, and built an industrial base for Nigeria. Now he is developing the largest refinery in Africa, to make Nigeria more than self sufficient.

I laughed when Buhari promised to lift 100m people out of poverty but not out of darkness. Give us electricity and watch how the % of unemployed goes down.

@Fe Ch aliko dangote allha ya kara arziki da lafiya da imani da te Makon ta lakawa da Kera ma Ssallachi amine

[@mucholangs]

Is Dangote advocating for power business? I actually don't think so, because he can already get into the power sector as a private company. Even the law now allows individual states to generate their own power. One thing he said that surprised me is the amount of tax govt takes on business revenue. 52%? That can't be true. The govt taxes telecom companies even more. Instead of taxing so much, the govt needs to have standards in place, where companies are ordered to improve service. For example, order FTTH in individual homes. The faster our Internet, the more profit business makes, and the more tax revenue govt takes receives in the long run. Dangote is very correct about smuggling. Our borders are porous. The problem has been there for generations. Nobody has tried to fix it.

[@tomishift]

Last time I checked, states can't really generate their own power. Why? Because there are regulations that limit the size of power generation and transmission & frustrate the economics to do so. E.g. Mini grid generation cap in Nigeria is 1MW. Around the world, it is 10MW. Why? I don't know And once you generate more than1MW, you must connect to the national grid.

Since 1999 all effort by OBJ, GEJ and MB to provide power has led us to no where. One way out is to bring in good generator producers to assembly them locally with possible local content development. The government and private sectors should subsidised the gens for their staff. It will reduce pressure on government to deliver. It will create jobs for Nigerians in terms of capacity building, production and repairs.

[@Newnation2024]

He’s talking sense despite the fact that he has taken his own share long ago, right now he is indirectly telling government to give him power supplies management. Am not against it as long as the rate is regulated and also steady supply is assured.
