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 )

A woman scorned...

.
Is a scary thing.

Mr President, you're a married man and word has it that Mrs Jonathan is no pushover.

So you can probably imagine the ire of 30 million madams who are expecting better light.

And now you've got a facebook page

(Actually I think you may have had one for a while but one local newspaper drew our eye in your direction)

Your excellency, this is damn risky.

I recommend that you work on the communications and delivery of this whole light thing. Otehrwise your "wall" might start to look like graffiti central.

By the way does this mean we are too old school with our little blog ?

Should we get a facebook page as well ?

Do we tweet when NEPA does its thing ?

Gawd. The dilemmas of modern life.
