We know all this but without rain , earthquake and hurricane, Nigerias electricity power supply is useless, even Ukraine that are fighting war has light more than Nigeria,
Totally a U se Less country

pocohantas:
I used to be pissed off about it, but now I understand safety first. There are also cases where poles would fall down and electrocute people. It is better to turn it off for a few hours. Everybody go dey alright.

Ishilove:
We still have a long way to go in this country.

Zorn:
Its lame explanation and excuse for failure as its not the standard practice every other places,

WhiteIverson:
How do they then explain the power outage that last for days after the rainfall even when no damage was done by the rain

Joystarn00:
People like u must talk

Orlandoo:
If we are to go by your logic why don't they switch it off in western countries like Germany or the US?

This should not be an excuse, if not that we have very irresponsible people and management.
Is it only in Nigeria it rains?

pocohantas:
I don't need to ask. It is what is obtainable in Nigeria. Go to other countries and experience their engineering or take over IKEDC and overhaul it with your superior knowledge.

SmartPolician:
Such companies don't attract talented people - you only get a job there if you know someone, that's one of the reasons that industry is a total mess.

Nigeria is long overdue for a revolution, but polarization along tribal and religious lines are hampering it.

Ishilove:
Someone complained on X that there had been no power in Ikorodu since it rained, and a social media handle called Nigerian National Grid explained the reason why power goes off anytime it rains. At least in Nigeria. I don't know how it is in other countries

Another reacted: "Some people still sometimes have light even inside heavy rain, so how about that?"

Rutherinspace:
You're very smart. People claim to know too much in the country but they lack knowledge and understanding. In Brooklyn, some areas have been without light for 3 days. Power go out in many areas of the US when the weather is bad.
In Nigeria the submission given above is plausible and brilliant.

nairalanda1:
Nigerian cities could create large sewage systems where the power lines could run underground to prevent this from happening.

Also, simply run the power lines underground. May cost money, but would prevent this from happening.

Go stay every other place naa.
