Have you ever gone to a place where you wished that the sun should not go down? Have you ever been afraid of approaching the night? Hahaha 😂. These are funny questions right? But I feel so strongly that we need Joshua's in Nigeria now. We need the people who will command the sun not to go down because we all need the sun now to help us see clear at night. I don't know which part of Nigeria you live in, but we don't have light here. I don't know how to shout it. But I very serious with this. I don't know whether they are called NEPA or POWER HOLDING, anything at all. But we need light in this country. I don't even want to talk about feul. That is a no go area for now.

Hello great Nigerian feful. Wetin dey happen for your cona? Hope say every one dey happy dey joli?

Welcome to the new month. I saw something somewhere in a community we visited last weekend. Do you know what I saw? Black out all over. No NEPA light, no one who has solar system there. For me, it has been long I saw a place like that where you can't have one person who don't have access to light. Like I was some how afraid of moving closer to the night. I don't know if you understand that feeling? When you start feeling somehow awkward. You don't just want to see the 🌞 sun going down to where it came from.

When I got to that village on Friday night, I was like - how are they surviving here. How do they cope in the night? How do they charge their phones? Just one person in a whole community with generator for everyone to gather around his house to charge their phones. I never knew that places like that still exist. I had to manage for the two days that I went there.

My question is, who will save us in this country? Do you know that the government only recognize cities and rural areas closer to the city. But those villages which people don't get to see or go there easily from the town or city are not visit and what belongs to them doesn't also get to them. How do we get out of this mess? What is happening here in Nigeria? How can people be neglected like that? Or is it there fault that they are born and brought up in the village? Something needs to be done urgently.

Okay. That will be enough for light and all the wahala. This is lovely weekend, please do enjoy it.
