I am just curious to find out what the power supply situation is in other parts of the country. Here in Asaba, Delta State, it seem to be worse than how it was when PHCN was in charge. Please what's the situation like in your area?

can I say its drastically worst......

No light in UNIPORT and ALUU over 4 months.

Hmmm, I thought its only worse in Delta. I expected that the privatisation would better the sector. What is really happening in this country?

No reduction or improvement in the total no of hour we have electricity pr day which is between 15-20
Distribution problem is being taken care of faster, we no longer watch electricity in our neighborhood while we wont have it.
3 transformers supply my area alone, so 3 transformer each with 3 phase means 9 different.electric line supply it, so and their is always problem with atleast one of them but now the distribution company are solving it faster.
Nobody is allowed to use 2 lines therefore their is no longer problem of heavy load on one line, and also people now inform them whenever their is problem with one line instead of changing to another which cause problem for transformer.
Another development is that we can now watch football at our home, for example during this world cup, there is no power failure during football match unless their is rain or thick cloud, but before privatilization, PHCN worker collect bribe from football viewing centres and off our electricity.

In another word, our electricity improve because corruption that cause PHCN worker to allow 2 lines, that make PHCN off electricity due to match has been eliminated.

Far worse at my end of ph (okporo rd). You only get light here when d ediots want to start disconnecting. But at least we had light for 3hrs today

Your own is good na, come to UNIPORT/ALUU then you will testify on Sunday how God has been good to you for the 3hrs light you had today.

No improvement in power supply in Satellite Town, Oriade LCDA of Lagos State. The only thing that is regular are the bills I get from EKOCORP/PHCN at the end of every month.

It has deteriorated considerably!!

I believe we have gotten it right with the privatization though. Its just a matter of time.

Absolutely worst. If only they can subsidize the price of solar panels, every house will have their own renewable electricity

Power supply has gone worse nationwide

Personally, I would have vowed that with the privatisation, epileptic power supply would be a thing of the past. Very sad to know its not going to better electricity supply. Or, maybe the companies now in charge need more time to give us uninterrupted power supply. But how long will that take?

prowl G: Absolutely worst. If only they can subsidize the price of solar panels, every house will have their own renewable electricity

They should reduce petrol and diesel price by 50% to help revamp the economy and encourage the GDP.

You people just continue to live there with false hope that things will get better in this sh.ithole country. Our fathers and grandfathers hoped too that things will change for the better, they grew old and died with the country worst than when they were young. Us too will hope and hope untill when we have grey hair and die with nothing changing in this country. But me, i refuse to live on false hope. I woud rather slave away in another country than suffer in this. Atleast i will be guaranteed a dignified life with a quality standard of living.
To answer your question, where i live only got 3hours of electricity in the past 48hours . You can imaging in this 2014 o. Mehn f****k this country

No

In Apete, Ido LGA of Oyo State, average of 1 hr per day. That one hour can be spread across 10 'up Nepas'. Sometimes, the only way you know there's been light is when you look up and see the ceiling fan rolling gingerly.
However, when it is 3 days to the end of the month, we start getting light for up to 4 hrs, 5hrs a day. I am talking of midnight oo. So sometimes, you wake up at 2am to quickly charge phones, iron clothes, pump water etc. As soon as people pay their monthly bills, back to 1hr per day.

in Uyo is light all the way, for two months now there has been a steady light. As am writing this we still have light, slept with it last night and is still available for use and if eventually is taken, it wouldn't last at least more than 30 mins it will be restored.

Ikeja Discos want to milk us dry, yet no light!
