There was a mild drama in the Diobu area of Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, on Tuesday, as some women marched to the office of Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company (PHED) over what they described as their inability to have conjugal relationship with their husbands due to heat.

Armed with placards with inscriptions such as ‘No Light, No Payment’, ‘The Heat is too much’, etc, they lamented the untold hardship they were passing through.

The protesting women said their husbands no longer touch them at night due to heat, lamenting their inability to preserve cooked foods for weeks as a result of power outage.

They also said their businesses had been grounded due to poor power supply.

The leader of the protesting women , Maria Ike, said, “We have decided to let the world know what we are passing through in the hands of PHED. The poor supply in our area is at zero level despite the fact that we pay monthly bills to PHED. We no longer have romance and conjugal relationship with our husbands because of so much heat due to power failure. Our businesses have collapsed because of power outage. This is really affecting our families,” she said.

When contacted PHED Public Relation Officer, Livingstone Koko, said that the issue of poor power supply is a general problem in the country.

He said that PHED was doing its best to improve on power supply in the state.

Is there no harmattan in Rivers State? At least they should manage harmattan for sexual intercourse.
But seriously, having sex during heat can be uncomfortable. I sympathize with the women

With the harmattan cold we are going through at the moment?

Rivers State must have a special weather pattern.

The emphasis should have remained on the light issue and not muddle up the waters with inanities .
