Activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has commented on what he believes Nigerians actually want from the country’s electricity supply
Speaking on the Honest Bunch Podcast, Adeyanju said many Nigerians are not necessarily demanding 24-hour power supply, but rather consistent electricity during key hours of the day that make daily life easier.
He explained that most people simply want power in the evening when they return home and again in the morning before heading out for work.
“Nigerians don’t even want 24 hours light, can they even afford 24 hours light? Nigerians just want to come home at 8pm and meet light so they won’t sweat when they sleep and also meet the light by 7am so they can iron their clothes and then you can take the light and divert it to where factories are,” he said.
Adeyanju extended that Nigerians are not making extreme demands and should not be seen as difficult to satisfy when it comes to electricity issues.
“Nigerians are not asking for much and they’re the easiest people to please. How can this be too much?” he asked.
