Nigeria doesn't have uninterrupted power supply. How do they (clients and suppliers) cope with the tropical weather?

You are obviously not a Nigerian. We use generators, different sizes and various shapes.

my best solution for housing issues in lagos is to adopt 'the abandoned property law'

i cant imagine that in a city with that population looking for accomodation, you will find many houses unoccupied and vacant. Many buildings on the Island, Herbert Macaulay yaba, and lekki are empty and vacant.
a law should be made that if your building is not 50% occupied, you either forfeit it to the state governemnt or pay heavily for it.

You'll use generators for 24/7 when diesel is 300 and petrol is 145 naira with the attendant fumes and noise? And it's for the middle class? Sigh.


Good luck meeting the best otologist, cardiac surgeon and rhinologist.


P.S. I'm a Nigerian and I have not seen light for two days now. Yet, I burn 20 liters of petrol and diesel to run my enterprise daily.

Don't mind that ignorant reporter. Eko Atlantic where flats go for excess of $ 1 million USD is meant for the middle-income, going by their twisted ideology. They think that they are talking to f00ls.
what's your point. Is 1 mill not middle income or you think they are using Nigerian naira poverty mentality to calculate income levels

My point is - $1 million USD (not 1 million naira, o! shocked) is not middle-income level by any standards in Nigeria. Heck, it is not even middle-income level in the US itself! undecided undecided

Oga, what other choice do we have? shocked Installation cost of solar equipment is rather high. And no single individual can do anything to improve poor electricity supply from NEPA/PHCN/DISCOs, in under 24 hours. The only alternative is to use a generator, fuelled by petrol, diesel or LPG gas.

Em, there are still few places in Nigeria - enjoying uninterrupted power supply. What I don't know is how the electricity is generated...
