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 )

Solar shopping

.
The Okadas are going to take a look at solar panels today.

Last time we checked on this kind of thing in Port Harcourt they were over-priced and the vendors were a bit hopeless on knowing what they're selling.

Lets see if things have improved.

One way or another we're stepping off the the merry go round of NEPA, generators, fuel, noise, mechanics, voltage stabilisers, surge protectors and all manner of power survival contraptions.

We're going green.

Then we'll convert the neighborhood.

Then Port Harcourt !

Then all of Nigeria !!!

Take that money grubbing generator selling mafia !!!!

Suck on that NEPA !!!!!

[Yes the Okadas are moody today]
