Nairalanders please pardon my ignorance and my grammatical errors I'm not an English man.

I got passed different streets and roads with street lights, and it always on from 6-7pm on a dot and goes off by 6am or sometimes 7am in the morning.

Traffic lights works almost 24hrs am not sure and some bus stops with light, AC and all that.

Then I wonder who Pay the electricity bill for all these? Are there using prepaid meters?

I understand some countries electricity may be managed by the government but what about Nigerians that was privatize?

Please I need inputs.

Lalaticlala my brother can you help me move to front page.

But why? Haven't you heard of Solar panels?

Which village did you escape from?

fg, state or local government depend on the case. but most times nobody cares sha, but the local government need to do more in that aspect because na them they use am

@ op, se if you buy a new generator, you no go fuel am?

Those light are maintained by tax payers money

Most times, the street association install and maintain it, i.e street lights inside street gan gan.

Then traffic lights, lights lighting up the roads and expressways are maintained by the government.

But then, there are numerous traffic lights that are dead in Lagos today.


You just can’t count on the government.

It's usually connected to most transformers to draw light directly..

Are you versatility in the affairs of life?

Most street lights are powered by generators that is why when there is power outage you wouldn't notice it because they are power on at the appropriate time. As for traffic lights, most of them are power by solar. This however doesn't exempt street lights either but it depends on what the governors, local government chairman or president wants

The guy above me just dey hand English upandan like soccer..
That reminds me of the kind of English my afonja neighbors speak. How pathetic



Pukes

You mean those street lights that has solar panels at the top? Or it has an industry solar panel set up somewhere and then wired to the street lights?

Yes I know it connect to electricity somewhere but my question is who pays the electricity bill that those lights and traffic lights and bustop consume.

So if it's connected to nearby transformer directory then no prepaid meters.

Most of them powered from nearby transformers and always metered .the photocell auto switch always control them lastly The states government pay the bills .
