It's not a joke, I would really appreciate if mods don't move my thread to joke section.

I just wanted to be sure this isn't happening only in abeokuta. Phcn has not taken our light since Friday evening. I'm seriously taking it as bad sign cos when the light is finally taken we might not see it for the next 1month.
Call it poverty or being used to generator utilisation most of the time. But the country has been so bad for a while and I've been so used to the bad side of everything.

I've not seen unshaken electricity for 3whole days since I was born.

And please don't say this government is working.. they wrecked the nation to this present state...they don't need any applaud for 3days uninterrupted power.

If you are uncomfortable with this development, just get a phcn officer to climb your pole and disconnect you. grin
On a serious note, this may signify that PHCN staff are preparing to share your electricity bill any time from now.

I used to think that too, but the entire estate uses a prepaid meter. We don't get visits from PHCN for disconnection as a result of late bill payment

If you are living near the transformer, pack out while it is not too late. The NEPA person in charge is obviously not on duty and that transformer will overwork and explode very soon

Ur advice is pretty extreme considering I don't have where to run to. But u might be right with the transformer exploding...is that possible??.but they have light in developed countries without explosion.
I guess they probably don't use crude transformers like us

Just start running, NEPA people are planning something bad for people with prepaid meters because they don't collect much money from you people

My friends sometimes accuses me of being too text bookish cos I don't recognize sarcasm most times.
Are u beign sarcastic right now cos last month PHCN was around for inspection in some houses with tenants. The occupants of those houses told us they came to check if any part of their connections have been by passed into the main source of power coming from the poles.

If we have something like that in my area, we are done for. No prepaid metre, at the end of the month, your bill a will look like total winning of an accumulator betting slip.
