15hours per day..manageable shaa

well, forgive me for this little digression,

I just want to point something out. Some guys are using the term "light" some may not know that this is not correct. I am just raising this issue due to a past thread where the quality of our spoken English was discussed and many think there is nothing wrong in the way we speak. I also use the term "light" but will never use it (and or Nigerian English in general) in a public forum or while conversing with native English speakers, they mostly confuse "light" to mean "day-time" in context until u explain what u mean...

Just saying.

In Makurdi, we only av light 2-4hrs a day and some days like saturdays na 24hrs blackout. Note: there is no single functioning factory in d state.

Can this story be true?

Electricity is bad here in Apete ibadan.

oddy4real:
So, Rain never fell during Obasanjo and Yar'dua's time abi?

Come on, lets not turn this into a GEJ and Obj fight.

Every year even during Abacha time, power improves during raining season because the dams have more water and are able to generate more.

WHEN PEOPLE CREATE TOPICS TO DISCUSS ELECTRICITY IN A COUNTRY THEN THERE IS A PROBLEM.

Where I live power outtage breaks the news.
Power is only switched off by natural disasters not some drunken PHCN staff.

The thing is that I dont even know how they distribute the light sef, here in my place of work there's uninterrupt supply of light since on Monday but,there is no light(sometimes jst two hours supply) in houses in the neighbourhood including my residential place. I have since been wondering what is happening

The truth is that Electrical power has improve in my area for the past 2 month in rivers state.

12 hour love this

In Mile 4,Rumueme,Port Harcourt, it's been an average of about 23 hours daily steady supply for the past 5 days or so! If I'm dreaming, please no one should wake me up!
Good job,GEJ!

@OP,



You are jobless.

Jst 3days power supply, you are opening a thread.


We have 1 week of constant uninterrupted power supply here in my area.

I am still yet to say that phcn has improved. I will accept improvement when these archaic transformers has been changed to new morden ones. as 4 me o, commercializing the power sector is the only solution. Tanx
