Another week has started, and for many Nigerians, darkness came with it.
Across social media and neighbourhood conversations, the complaint is the same: power supply has dropped again, and people are tired. From Lagos to Abuja and other cities, residents say electricity has become something you “manage,” not something you depend on.
Small business owners are among the loudest voices. Many say generators are now running longer hours, while fuel prices keep rising. Some business owners say they’re barely breaking even anymore, but shutting down is not an option.
At home, parents complain about children struggling to study at night, while others say charging phones and pumping water have turned into daily stress. For many, blackout is no longer shocking — it’s expected.
The most common question Nigerians keep asking is simple: how long will this continue? Years have passed, promises have been made, but stable electricity still feels out of reach.
💬 Public reaction:
“Light is now like a visitor — it comes and goes.”
