PART 4: ELECTRICITY, EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE AND THE BROKEN SOCIAL CONTRACT

A nation cannot progress without functioning public services.

Electricity remains one of Nigeria’s greatest challenges.

Businesses spend fortunes on generators.

Students study in darkness.

Hospitals depend on alternative power sources.

Families pay more and receive less.

Many citizens struggle to understand why electricity remains so unreliable despite decades of promises.

Questions have also emerged regarding the classification of electricity consumers into different bands.

Many Nigerians feel the system has created unequal access to a service that should be reliable for all citizens.

Education faces similar struggles.

Universities continue to face funding challenges.

Primary and secondary schools suffer from inadequate infrastructure.

Many young Nigerians are losing confidence in the education system.

Healthcare presents another challenge.

Many public hospitals remain under-equipped.

Medical professionals continue to leave the country in search of better opportunities.

Patients often bear enormous costs for treatment.

A government’s success is not measured by speeches.

It is measured by the quality of life of its citizens.

Can ordinary Nigerians confidently say public services have improved significantly over the last three years?
