The man, @thetopealao, said someone told him about the steady electricity in Osun state, but he did not believe it until he visited the state.
In a post on TikTok, he noted that the light has even improved now, as he heard there are 23 hours of electricity there after he finished his NYSC.
Some people disagreed with his assertion, while others said they could bear witness to what he said.
One of his followers said the steady electricity he talked about was only available in Osogbo, the state capital and that it had stopped two years ago.
The man responded:
“It’s still very good. In fact I know one area in Osogbo that uses 23 hours light daily.”

Lady spends millions to install solar at home
Meanwhile, a Nigerian lady said she and her family got tired of spending money on fuel for their generator, so they sought an alternative.
The lady said they installed a solar electricity system in their house, and then it cost millions to buy inverters and solar panels.
However, they are now reaping the benefits because she noted that they no longer depend on the grid electricity supply.
