Gov Otti is the best gov ever produced in the history of Nigeria. So Abia indigenes should take it easy with him. They should also remember he is elu p, pitobi party.

Is Otti in charge of the power grid in Abia?

You pay for what you use, switch off what you don't need and see your bill go down.

Turn it all on and see your bill climb.

What about those on postpaid?

light no dey we complain, now there is light with prepared meter yet you will leave everything on at the same time expecting it to remain the same, sorry!

Una even see light

Get a prepaid meter.nigeria also scammed me.o got a prepaid meter and I had been recharging.suddenly after 6 months nepa now said I'm owing 7k.i wanted to drag it.but when I calculated fuel expenses going there and cloning back.i just paid it once.since then I vowed nEver to recharge above 1k

As in they dont have meters?

My advice to Abia people is to go solar if you can. Solar is the real game changer. I use solar at home and in my offices, I don't know what power outage is like or running generators.
A 45kwh to 60kwh battery and the corresponding inverters can run most mansions for the day. Don't expect Alex Otti to solve Enugu Disco issues

You are talking about estimated billing.
Cos a postpaid well managed gives same result as prepaid.

Over 90% of those protesting are on estimated billing.

What they ask people to pay over there is scary.

Hmnnnnn na WA oooo.... Estimated billings at its best

Give us light, we can pay for it.

This is what Nigerians usually say before now. They have the light for most area now and they are protesting about price.

They don't need to bring down the price, we just need to ensure we improve wages and salaries in this country. So they are protesting about the wrong thing.

put prepaid meter .. una say no
oya estimated bill show una begin cry
no sympathy for dem at all

It's possible

Elo fokan bale

Na wa o. Na God save me sha. How my life for be if I am earning 70k in this regime?

Give them prepaid peter.

5,000 megawatts for 180 million people can never translate to majority enjoying power supply.

Boot out Tinubu or u just wasting ur time

This one sense dey village 😄

With all the huge allocations going to tiny South East.. so these people can't provide basic amenities for themselves.

South East combined that is same size as Oyo State gets x5 of allocations going to Oyo State.. how will Oyo State now cope if these ones can't survive?

What’s wrong with people sef?

When there’s no light,you’ll complain
When there’s light,you people will still complain


It is well sha
To his mallam,his own kettle

I guess they have prepaid meters. God bless Abia state.. God own state

Never. Not in a million years will you compare both

I invested in enough battery banks and enough panels, a little sunny day gives me good electricity

E go be

Very funny country

Imagine 70k salary in this harsh economy

Yet, some people still earns below 50k, and they'll still surviving
