Omoku in Rivers State enjoys same constant electricity supply.

Where ds Omoku? Is it also water-locked like Bonny? How's security there? What's d prospect of getting accommodation, land and a medical doctor job over there? Need to make a good choice. Thanx.

Omoku is also in Rivers state. It's a land-locked and vehicles ply directly from Port Harcourt. It is home to Federal College of Education (Technical). That is the much I know about it. I've only been there twice or so.

And I guess d accommodation you're talking about will be outside NLNG residential area. I hope the light there is d same 24hrs light. What about security hope no militants? Hope no flood? Can one swim in d waters around d island? Tell me d things i should be worried about.
NLNG residential area is strictly for their staff and the apartments aren't rented.
It is the Bonny town itself that I'm talking about.
The water all around Bonny is saltwater, so you decide if you want to be swimming around.

Job opportunities?
It's not much different from what you have in other parts if Nigeria!
When I talked about the light, I wasn't referring to NLNG RA. I don't live in the RA. I was sharing my own experience and what is obtainable in Bonny town!

There is a place in delta state Beniku, that enjoys this 24 hour supply as well. I have been there during my service year. Power cut off can only happen if they are fixing one thing or the other and the maximum period of time to restore their power was about an hour

Bonny could ring a bell in the ears of many as the town where the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas(NLNG) plant is situated, but for those who do not know, it is an island by the coast of the Atlantic Ocean and one of the 23 local government areas of Rivers State, as well as home to the newly a established Federal Polytechnic of Oil and Gas.

The most remarkable thing about this town is that there is never power failure!
Yes, you heard well; Bonny residents enjoy 24/7 electricity supply all year round!

In my two-years stay in the town so far, the total time of power outage is less than 6 hours. Such outages are usually due to routine maintenance by the BUC(Bonny Utility Company). The residents hardly know how much kerosene or cooking gas sells for because they cook with electric cookers and power availability is guaranteed for their daily cookings.

My question is: if this could work in Bonny, can't this model be studied and replicated in other parts of Nigeria?

Nothing is impossible but only if our leaders will allow it to see the light of the day. Anyway, it is well.
[Quote author]=Adekoroye I think there are some powerful people behind this electricity trauma, because during campaign, they will boast as they will perform wonder, but getting there, the song of the day will be if you can't beat them join them.
