Besides there are places in the city that don't see light in 2 or 3days.Anyone not okay with their schedule can supplement with inverter or generator.

Will love to live here. Hope generators noise too is prohibited? Cos many are fond of leaving their noisy gen on till 1am mtcheeew.

Thia is a very interesting story about the opobo i use to hear in my childhood days. If only king Jaja was alive more history would have been told of the touwn. I wish one day i will pay a visit to this historic place, as i visited king Jajas tomp in calabar during excution in my secondary school days i will be there, Long live opobo. Kudos to Wike
