Issue Of Keeping Generator On Till Dawn . Am I Over Reacting?? by Thebest12(op): 12:19am On Nov 18, 2020
Edited pls read again .

Good morning nairalanders
.
I parked in to this my new compound , though not so recently, when I parked in we use to have light until our street transformer got broke down and nepa have refused fixing it up since almost 7 heading to 8 months now .
.
I traveled and came back still the light is not yet fixed ,, as someone that depends online as a daily source of income. I mean , I hustle online . I do my business online both day and night . But the main time for my biz is midnight . Mind you not Yahoo o grin
.
Okay let go straight to the point. Due to the light issue I decided to buy a tiger I pass my neighbour generator. After like 2 days, my landlord came and started telling me about how they rob one man that lives in my street here 2 years ago or a year ago I don't know. Then when they reported to the police, the police told them that the reason for the robbery is because they always keep their generator on till dawn . That because of this I should be putting the generator off once it is 12 am .
Like what the fu**ck sad sad I was like how about the heat that doesn't allow me sleep at night. And how about my business. So if I don't have battery on my phone I should not do anything online or I shouldn't power my PC to work. so if I go broke will they be the one to be feeding me or to pay my house rent ? Though I obeyed him for the first time but I'm already getting pissed off with this kind of law. And I'm thinking I should start disobeying him . Because this is affecting my business seriously. Once my battery go off at night ,even when I'm have a serious negotiation with a very serious client I can't rush to on my gen huh for what now ?? angry angry.
.
So the reason why opened this thread is to hear from you people. What should I do about this situation. if I should start disobeying him and go on to be putting on my gen till dawn , am I overreacting?? Is he right on this ? Does arm robbers most place their target on people that put on generator till dawn ? Pls I need answer to this questions.

Please help, I need your suggestion. I'm already getting mad on This

Go and buy a laptop powerbank or mini inverters that go for 40k. Generator through the midnight has successfully aided many robberies in the past that I know of. Security is very crucial this period.
