Which one is wicked liar there, it depends on area. The light in my area is still epileptic, about 6hrs daily, but I know of some areas with about 17-20hrs daily.
Mine is even operating a light shedding system while there is nothing of such in this area with constant light.
The guy could be high on something that's why I told him to take it easy, I don't even know if its a kid I am talking to

That's why. Billionaires can afford diesel. There must be a partnership between diesel sellers and the distribution companies. Lol.

The only truthful post on this topic.... Jist like forever, electricity in Naija depends on your location.
Here in warri and it's environs itvis terrible, even the so called industrial line(33KVA) is nose diving.
My verdict on Electricity improvement base on my experience is ZERO

You might just be lucky in your area because there would still be places not far from you where they struggle to see light. Another thing again, this is the peak of the rainy season when 2 things happen:
1. Hydro power dams have full water and produce power at maximum capacity. So generally, power generation is typically higher and more stable this period.

2. Because it's the peak of rainy season, temperatures are bearable, not too hot. So many people use ACs less this period, and that means significantly less demand for power. Less demand for power means less stress on the power systems and that results in more stable power.

Generally, power supply is best in Nigeria between August and October.

During rainy season, power is always stable, don't be deceived.
Talk of your side!
In my area seem when it rains the wires get soaked and AEDC has to wait until it gets dry before restoring power.
During this rainy season, power supply along the Airport road has been horrible and erratic angry angry

The overall truth is that Nigeria is currently generating 2700MW which is a far cry from the 20 thousand MWs required for anyone to say he has 24 hours electricity ..Power Generation is reducing yet somebody is claiming he has 24 hours light ..is that not a huge lie

I know of areas that have such power supply, my stand is not about improvement or otherwise.
I've experienced above 48hrs in a village in Ogun state before around 2016, yet same place might not have light for a week. I've also seen a light of above 72hrs around 2008 in another town.
At àgbàdo command area in Lagos, they have steady light that is always above double digits (10-17hrs) daily.
