“Little things that shouldn’t be a problem are a big issue in this country” — Lady laments over poor electricity supply in Nigeria
 A Nigerian lady has lamented the countrys poor electricity supply, saying the situation has affected her work and caused her to lose job opportunities. In a video shared online, the lady said she previously worked with foreign clients but often had to visit friends houses to charge her laptop so she could meet deadlines. She said the electricity situation recently affected her participation in a beauty contest after her lights went off midway through filming a makeup video. According to her, she had already spent money on makeup products and had completed part of the video when the battery powering her lights ran out. She said there was no electricity in her area to recharge it, while the available power supply was often too weak to run equipment. The lady said the situation has also limited the amount of makeup and fashion content she creates because she struggles to film properly without electricity and adequate ventilation. She added that she had spent money meant for her upkeep on fuel to power equipment, describing the situation as both financially and mentally draining. Why is electricity still hard to get in 2026? Do you know how many people have missed job interviews? Do you know how many people have missed foreign gigs because of electricity? she asked. She said the situation was affecting her ability to work and build the life she wanted, adding that she was frustrated by having to deal with what she described as a basic necessity. Watch video below:     View this post on Instagram           A post shared by Lindaikejiblog (@lindaikejiblogofficial) The post Little things that shouldnt be a problem are a big issue in this country Lady laments over poor electricity supply in Nigeria appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
