ReplyDeleteJonathan has not succeded with power supply, he's promissing free and fair election! Who is he deceiving? Who's fooling who?
ReplyDeleteMr.President has practically demonstrated that he can not solve PHCN's problem. How many years has he spent there being a figure head? Imagine! How can PHCN bring bill threatning to disconnect without even supplying power? You enjoy the way we buy fuel that you import for our generators and still pay NEPA bill? We know all of you that are invloved! And trust us, you will cry! Sob!! Regret!!!
