No light here for the past two weeks.

Nepa only bring light when month is about to end so as to collect their money, after two days, no light again.

eedimo:
Gallant in Maiduguri.
I have almost forgotten the sound of generator.

Fatbam005:
I will comment the month we celebrate 100 percent stability not even a year .

GeneralDae:

Where

wunmi590:
Good morning Nairalanders,

Based on the report that, the federal government have increased the National grid from 13,000MW to 14,000MW.

What is the light situation in your area currently? Is it constant or still bad?

what's the light situation in your area

TheDemola:

Guaranteed at least 16hrs/day

tuzle:
U are funny o, abeokuta is cursed with light sha. My aunt uses prepaid meter, I don't usually go there again becos of light.

groovy12:

Is from bad to worst in my area.

petux:


How are you working in lekki and living in abk?

bolademi:


18/22hrs at sangotedo ajah

JudahBlakk:



We are now over 6 months without light. Reason is, the transformers in my area were vandalised, and the oil reportedly scooped, by persons suspected to be even PHCN staff themselves (if not, who knows where the oil is located and where it is sold?). Now, they are expecting us to contribute (about #2m plus) to fix the thing, if not, we no go see light forever.

Ours is a rotten system.

babyfaceafrica:


Ogun governor has no power over power, blame discos, gencos and FG

BJanta:



But how about the sound of gunfire?

SocialJustice:
This 1GW is not for the masses, it is for industrial and commercial users. Power in my area is about 3 hours daily.

BJanta:


'Damn! Nigerians are stupid '

Including your father and mother, if you have any. Misfortunate baby factory child of misfortunatetribe and region .Always manifesting from curse.

tuzle:
l swear abeokuta is cursed with light issues. Imagine enjoying light at ayobo and also bola, at Ibadan and going to asero, abeokuta and not seeing light during the day for almost one month except sometimes at midnight (when someone has gone far)

wunmi590:


I will go first..

My family house at both obalende and around tinubu both in Lagos Island are enjoying almost 24hours..

My office in lekki phase1, they are also enjoying almost 24hours light..

But you see my house in abeokuta, no light there at all, precisely Elega, no light there for the past 1month, and if it comes, it will just be for 2hours and it won't come again, till another 1-2month, this is how it has been since Dapo abiodun came to power

incandescentena:
Stable electricity for months now both at Office and at home, Ikoyi Lagos Island.



Ogun state is seriously experiencing Epileptic Power Supply, specifically Power Line "11", days go by without electricity even for 3hours.

Power Line 33 is atleast seeing electricity for few hours daily in the same Ogun ungoverned state

COMPAQ:


Has nothing to do with the governor actually. It's all about the capacity of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC). You can see that most areas under their network Oyo, Ogun, Osun, Kwara are struggling with availability of electricity. The problem is that asides IKEDC, EKEDC, Abuja DISCO and maybe PH Disco, others are serving pretty poor states, so they are struggling with their revenue profile, so no money to invest.

Skyller:
Before I left school in Ilorin, there was always light for 70 to 80% of the day.
Same thing when I got to Ibadan.
There’s room for improvement btw

richeeyo:

Surulere
Very good
At least 20hrs a day

SalamRushdie:


This same phase 1 ? Abeg make una fear God

SirLakes:


You own stupidity is generational

Baba e lo fi jo

COMPAQ:


Capacity and Generation are two different things. Besides the headline is also wrong. Its not National grid capacity that has grown to 14,000MW. Its actually installed generation capacity.

However, electricity is much better in Lekki, Lagos. In Ologolo area of Lekki in the past 3months, we've been averaging 20hrs a day.
Lagos will naturally benefit more from the improvement because Lagos has more people with capacity to pay.

Harrynight:


I'm sure that your house at Abeokuta is not on prepaid meter

Gentlesoul2021:


Worse in ilorin, kwara state
