Welcome to Our Live Blog of power supply in this Niger delta

Sitting in our little 2 bedroom flat, listening to the thrum of the generator, Mr and Mrs Okada decided to give a live account of power improvements (and declines) in our neighbourhood.

We have been inspired by the sight of 3 successive Presidents promising us more electricity. This time we intend to help by providing live data from the field. We'll innovate, gyrate, and create. Soon we hope (with your assistance) will be a luck-o meter where we can measure how much things have really improved.

Its a survey of one, but we hope you'll share your stories, that NEPA will bring light and that laughter will at least abound.

If you really like the look of this little diary you may want to try reading from the bottom to the top.

(we still haven't figured out how to get blogger to keep our first entries at the top of the page and let you read through from the beginning ).

Uncross the fingers

.
I don't think Madam is too lucky today.

There was light for about 90 minutes this afternoon and one does not usually expect to see a return visit from our NEPA friends.

Tis' rainy season at last (serious droughts in the north)so its a little bit cooler for those that don't want to run their generator all night.

We've not had a NEPA bill since January.

Have they given up on us ?

Mr Okada
