Nyceguy92:
It is not surprising the mixed reactions to this post.
In a classroom, you find the smart and not so smart. Nairaland represents this analogy.

Senator Ben Bruce's electric car bill is outright laughable.
He might as well introduce a bill for Nigerians to relocate to the moon.
That shows he does not have a good grip of Nigeria's basic problems and how to prioritise them.
Since he has received enough bashing already, I am discharging him quickly in his write up.

My dismay is mostly at those who defend the senator, saying the bill is a good thing.
These are people who, if and when given the opportunity to make decisions for us, will run the country to a halt.
Because they lack the capacity for logical reasoning.

Electric vehicle don't come cheap; they are delicate and need to be charged with regular electricity.
Where is the road on which the electric car will run?
If it is the road we have now, then get ready to pick up the batteries along the roads as potholes knock them off the vehicles.

No need repeating the basic problems we need to solve before electric vehicles.
Our electricity generation is a mess; boreholes have replaced public water supply, and unemployment is everywhere.
Workers are owed several months of salary, etc, etc.

Even developed countries that use electric vehicles have not banned cars that use fossil fuel.

Those who represent us at the national assemblies should endeavour to read and research the issues affecting the people they represent.
This is how it is done elsewhere. Abuja is not for them to go and relax and live big, read the papers and entertain visitors.
Not many of the national assembly can boast of a good grasp of the political, economic, environmental, and other ramification of a bill on lives of most Nigerians.

I hope others will learn from the senator's blunder.

So u feel like uv made a valid point... Ur a very big olodo... U cudnt even understnd the bill before vomiting ur rubbish here...

Dee60:
Why would anyone compare Nigeria with Norway or ? There is no IOTA of common sense in doing so!

The Senator's idea is too cosmetic and shows how far he is to reality.

Nigeria has spent tons of billions of dollars in the last 2 decades and we are still not able to power common electric bulbs not to talk of motor vehicles.

As we speak, people are investing heavily in refineries, and if you place a 2035 ban, would that not amount to total summersault?

Norway and have possibly not seen any outage in 50 years because they have more than enough electricity, so it makes sense for them to force cars to use the excess, so that they can save on fuel imports (from places like Nigeria). So, they will use what they have to manage what they need!

To ban fossil fuel now will spell total doom for an economy like ours that still depends on it for sustenance.

I actually would not expect a senator from Bayelsa to be pushing this idea.

Wat happens when those countries stop buying our oil.. It becomes useless to us.. And then whn they stop producing fuel cars wch will soon happen....no moni.. No electricit cars... Just old useless oil and old fashioned cars

Average Nigerian only thinks of hw to eat eba and melon soup... Then sex like an animal without sense... Period

Ur d fool here... Marriage wont stop premarital sex...

SageMK:
So marriage is all about scrubbing sexual urges?!

What about the responsibilities that comes with that?
How do you expect two teenagers to carter for a child?!


I started having sexual urges at 5.
I am still yet to get married. Did I die?

Very soon Nigeria will be overpopulated.
With very little resources available for the masses.

You guys just keep reproducing like rats.

— No technological advancements.
— No home training

Just sex that's all.



Bunch of illiterates.
It's a dangerous thing to allow fools to go live on TV.

am4truth:


You have comprehension or psychological problem to write that rubbish about him. Bad belle kills.

Badbelle kill ur lastborn dia

Ayotemide:


Do you know Empathy? Do you understand the struggles of full-visioned people in every day Nigeria? Then do you know how having even half of that is enough to be empathetic for?

This reeks of insensitivity.

Dis isnt a matter of empathy.. Is just for d sake of clarity

xcelentattitude:



What do you stand to gain by typing the above? It's not logical, don't you think? Pls use your headquarters. Since when he was young people knew him, none of those people has come out to say otherwise except you or do you think he bribed them all. Don't you know that the more the people involved in a lie, the more the chances of it not holding. It seems you know something you ain't telling us. No offence ma'am

I once had an argument wif my siblings concerning d term "blindness"... Cobhams is visually impared... Blindness is whn uv completely lost d ability to see things.. It pains me whn pple misuse and confuse themselves with it... A blind man cant drive but av see cobhams driving his suv countless times..

ThothHermes:
I have heard him say he has no idea of colour, i.e he can't recognize colour. i.e. Colour is not something he can imagine. Only a man totally blind from birth will say that.

The interview was with Thecla Wilkie on NTA. Look for it.

We hear and even read alot of shlt on a daily basis....buh then u av common sense.. Mke use of it atimes..dnt let MMM fool u again..

ThothHermes:
He's totally blind. He's just adapted excellently.

Will u stop fooling ursef... Osu..
Even up till nw some pple still think dat a lady who wears an anklet means shes a lesbian.... Pple are just too daft to be existing

divineappo:
since u ire the partial blindness of Cobhams, and u desire to blow like him too

Receive the blindness In JESUS name

Nairalanders, click like to say AMEN

Just keep shut and learn wat u dnt knw... Mugu.. Is pple like u dat go abt causing problems wid ur devine ignorance

nkwuocha:


Sorry....it is well.

So u understand dat being blind is like a scale... Just like any other sickness there...the farthest end of d scale is whn a person is completely blind.... Like u cant see jack at all... Cobhams is partially blind period.. Buh hw bad it is??i cant tell

SocialJustice:
He can drive, for real? Because I'm wondering how a blind man can kill snake.

Cobhams dey drive himself go studio... Ask anybdy
