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 )

The war has begun

They have started again. My earlier palavar with NEPA is obviously not over, now the war has resumed. I spoke with my contact Person in the Nepa office to complain about their outrageous bill, he simple adviced me to calculate my bill and pay what I think is due me.

I think he also mentioned that a new service centre has been opened not so far from us, that I can lay my complaints there.

I have an appointment to see my contact person on Friday.
These people  are really strange, they cannot do a simple mathematics of calculating bills or rectifying one for that matter.

I shall keep you informed of my progress with them

Mrs Okada
