How's The Power Situation In Your Area?????? by playahP(m): 12:37am On Jul 27, 2013
For the past three days we haven't had light!
I stay in isaac john strt, ikeja. (lagos)

We've been blowing gen for the past 3 days and I don't know how long we can keep up...

So how's the power situation in your area??

Is this blackout affecting only people in ikeja or is it nation wide?

Where I stay they always give excuses that their lines or whatever break down each time there is a downpour. So each time it rains we don't expect to see light for the next 24 hours.

Thank you for the question!

As usual, before getting to 22nd of the month, the power is always worse than being epileptic. But from 22nd to 26th, the power is always stable and even close to 22hours per day just because they wanna distribute the bill on the 27th.
On the 27th of the month, there use to be power in the morning till around 9.00am just because they wanna disconnect the wire from the electric pole (dem no wan die of electrocution), then restore the power in the evening.
29th-30th of the month, no light in the day for them to check and disconnect any reconnection.
That is how the cycle continues for the whole year like menstrual cycle.

They normally sundry the wires after a heavy downpour yeye ppl. And some mofos 'll be claiming they have 26hrs of uninterrupted power supply out of 24hrs in a day.
