This is due to weather and not due to the irresponsibility and insensitivity of their leaders, unlike in Nigeria

Actually , you are wrong .

Their government caused it by being stingy and refusing to listen to experts

So what then? We all know that it would be taken care of in no distant time

See how Nigeria government will use this rare scene to ask Nigerians to endure suffering and lack of social amenities

No be lie, I taya for NG.

Yesterday I saw pictures of people packing away their foods in snows to chill them while they wait for power restoration.

I saw a tweet of a white woman complaining they have not had light for 30hrs.
Ordinary 30hrs. We that sometimes we don't see light for 2 weeks nko.

Point of correction, in Nigeria there would have been exchange of words and blows. With all this frustration, who will line up?

Imagine that you are a Nigeria there.

You go don remember how you take hussle water for Nigeria. How una dey take go river, waka with bucket dey find well, dey go baba olomi compound. How una dey line up for front of toilet and bathroom for gave me I face you. Una go teach oyibo the levels very well there.

It’s due to the their present weather condition..

Please stop showing how proud you are of suffering, why she should suffer such because your leaders are irresponsible, does not mean others should suffer same thing.

They also got a bunch of wind turbines but the cheap governor decided not to pay the extra cash to protect then from harsh winters.

The problem is not even the Wind Mills but their fossil fuel/coal powered powerplants.

In reality, failures in natural gas, coal and nuclear energy systems were responsible for nearly twice as many outages as frozen wind turbines and solar panels, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, which operates the state’s power grid, said in a press conference Tuesday.

Well it's not going to be a permanent situation, unlike this sh*thole.

in the words of M.Bison in the movie street fighter let me borrow and adjust this quote from the film "the day electricity went off was the most significant and eventful day for a Texan in recent times but for a Nigerian it's just tuesday"

America's Power Outage: Texas Residents Line-Up To Fetch Water From Borehole (Video)

Residents of Texas have been captured lining up to fetch water amid days of blackout in the state caused by failure in natural gas operations, IgbereTV reports.

Operators revealed that the bulk of the power loss in Texas came from natural gas suppliers as pipelines froze, making it difficult for plants to get the fuel they needed.

Electricity is normally used to pump water into the homes of residents but since the outage, many have resorted to seeking alternative ways of accessing their daily needs.

In a video shared on Twitter by abc reporter, Erica Simon, citizens could be seen in a queue holding buckets and dispenser containers as they fetched water from a borehole tap.

Sharing the video, Erica wrote;

This is not a third world country. This is Houston, Texas. I spotted a line of people filing up buckets of water from a spicket at Haden Park. Why? Millions either have no water or are under a Boil Water Advisory. pic.twitter.com/VHYH5Hbqjj

RARE PICTURE OF OJUELEGBA IN AMERICA

There are even places worse than that in New York, especially in Jamaica side. Likewise in Inglewood area at West Century in Los Angeles. These are the rare scenes you'd never see on CNN but the beauty of American governance is, as unkept as those places seem to be, government's hands are felt everywhere. The residents have access to what the rich can also afford. Unlike here where the rich have drawn the lines between them and the poor.

america has turned to third world country. it was bound to happen sooner seeing all the cosmic signs

I don't know why I find this amusing

Good thing it didn't happen during Trump's tenure. We would have been deafened by hourly updated from MSN and CNN by now on the ongoing "Water Crisis Disaster" in Texas. Riots would have filled the streets of the US, and Pelosi would have promptly prepared an impeachment.

Just a temporal glitch... Ours unfortunately, already has become a way of life.no thanks to APC..
But why only black community is affected?

so you mean APC has been in power since 1999 or before 2015 you get constant power in your house? all our politicians have failed us don't limit it to one party alone.
