Light is much improved and stable in my area of Port Harcourt. It is a known secret in Nigeria that yahoo boys flock to areas with more than 18 hours of light and good roads.

Get past hate please. Count the days, consult the Calendar; it's more than a year now. For your record, when he was there, he put the Discos on their toes and at the edge of their seats.

In Uyo, opposite Uniuyo Teaching Hospital, light here is as unstable as the sea, the only time you will enjoy 5hrs a day is the week NEPA wants to go round to collect bills...

Minister's claim is a scam.
EEDC is worst of them all. Isuikwuato LGA in Abia State is in total black out. Atimes there are weeks of no light at all while at other times, it lasts for few minutes when it comes once in a while yet, the bills are very exorbitant

My question is, why must electricity companies in Nigeria switch off the light?

They may do so to rectify fault in a nearby area, also poor quality infrastructure.

Is it deliberate here?

We used to have light b4 now. In a month maybe 18 days (12-16 hrs- the day we see am), but through out this lockdown, PHCN, I don't know what they call them, they can stay full one week no flashing from them. After a week, they will just bring it like 3 days and that's all for the week.

From Port Harcourt, Igbo Itche Road, after Oil Mall.
We thank God for our generator.

My area Ibeshe, Ikorodu, there have been no light since February, and what makes it bad is that this was where Badoo- those ritualists that killed people in the night while asleep and use a white handkerchief to wipe their blood originated, with this darkness they can easily Carry out their evil plan. I do t know if government are waiting for them to strike before they fix this light

Nigeria is a very simple place to govern because the people are so very gullible. This is probably the tricks: Some parts of the state, in some states at a given time, say 20% of cities across the country enjoys 80% of total power generated. They begin to testify that they now enjoy 20---24 hours power supply. After some months, the cities are reconfigured and some other cities will join the testimony band while the former cities will upgrade to we used to have regular power but for some time now, it has been irregular. And the circle continues

It is so strange for a Minister to come on air and dish out beautiful lies.In Ikorodu environ,light is terrible.We are Off and On over a year now and is pathetic as DISCO claimed it was designed like that by Federal Government.The people here don't know and cannot find who they can complain to as most of the people's representatives are nowhere to be found.
Is this the way for Nigeria Industrialisation? Shameful!!!.
Where in ikorodu are you talking about?

Where I live in Benin around upper Airport road, it's 24 hours daily light. Really grateful for the way the minister for power and BEDC are transforming our lives. I wish them the same.

In fact, in my area in Ibadan it's another story...
Looks like they are monitoring the light, I was about to start this comment when light went off...yeah power outage....

Hmmm, at times it may be a flash of 5minutes till the next day...

Longest period is usually between 4 - 8 for the whole day to be followed by day or two with lesser hour or outright darkness ..

It was that bad

you just sounded stvpid.
your critisism and on his response does not correlate.
your making a valid point in a wrong topic.

If you are sound, you would have known from the response of people on the thread of the Minister's statement that There's actually no improvement of power in 20% of Nigeria.

So it is like asking a kindergarten question in a mature forum.

Even the minister knows he has done nothing to bring improvement in power. They are only doing their usual propaganda on you.
