Reminds me of a movie I watched, the hero or villian caused power outage, and in the chaos hacked into the world's most secure database.

I wonder if there is a hero or villain out there right now..*wondering*

Look at this village champion. Are you going to try climbing stairs to say 56th floor by yourself? Something you have never done in your life.
Those buildings are skyscrappers not your small type of office blocks.

I think dey said NEPA don't take light in yankee? Wetin happen here, grin grin grin grin yeye dey smell




But honestly it's not funny, there's power outage and it turns to a news, here in Nigeria, even the so called NEPA abi phcn uses generators in their offices.



Which way Nigeria?? embarassed

Actually you are looking at this news the wrong way. Just look at the disaster of a brief power outage in a country like that. Literally business stopped functioning and people are left clueless, it just goes to show that electricity is the second most important (if not the most important) amenity a country needs. Imagine a country like Nigeria having access to 24hrs electricity, business still boom even though we rely heavily on Generator. 24hrs Electricity will really boost Nigeria's productivity.

we would be a force to reckon with.

But this should not stop activities now, are they not first class citizens can't they improvise?, so those that need medical attention will not get it becos no electricity?.

oyinbos and blowing things out of proportion are like bread n butter.

Akute in Ogun state, ppl live without NEPA for glorious days n no noise. just hours for San Francisco it became world news. smmmh!

places like hospitals will have standby generators

I thought this happened only in Nigeria

Meanwhile, we have so adapted that these outages don't stop work or traffic or anything. We just continue as if nothing happened. Nija is strong abeg, give it up to us already.

San Francisco fire department crews stand outside of an electric substation where a fire occurred, which might have caused the citywide power outage on Friday.

Crews install a generator above the Bay Area Rapid Transit Montgomery station after a power outage Friday, April 21, 2017, in San Francisco.

People wait outside a financial district building to return to their offices after a power outage Friday, April 21, 2017, in San Francisco.

Financial workers dressed in casuals.

Yet in naija yeye execs demand people wear suits even in stifling heat due to some archaic way of thinking.

You are comparing Apple with Oranges.

It occupational hazards for them to go inside that building, these are skyscrapers with no windows to let air in, so they rely on electricity 100% for ventilation, asking people to work like this is a code violation; if phones are not working, It means they can't call 911, another code violation; if anything happen up there, since elevators are not working, it will take emergency crew a longtime to response, which is a liability and another lawsuit against the employer; most of these workers use computers to do their jobs, if no light...their productivity is zero.

There are only negatives if you ask workers to go in and work in that condition and zero benefit. Those outside there may just be waiting to get in, take their belongings and head home for the day or to the park to chill out.
