@Yoel_Solo555: “The room’s energy when the light was gone speaks volume. Nobody got upset, you can tell everyone is used to the system. How then can the system be changed?”
@Donremmy50: “I could remember when this administration was an opposition. Fashola said. A serious government will fix electricity within 6 months. Under them APC has been in power for 10 years and the power sector is getting worse. I guess this kind of thing never happened before in Nigeria.”
