Residents across northern Nigeria have endured an unprecedented power outage, with many areas experiencing eight consecutive days without electricity or water. This prolonged blackout has severely impacted daily life, leaving millions without basic services, leading to mounting frustration and calls for accountability.
The blackout has intensified scrutiny on President Bola Tinubu’s administration, with some former supporter bearing the handle @Wasspapping on X expressing regret.
Waspapping wrote “Everything I said about ‘Tinubu making a better President than Peter Obi’… I was mistaken,” stated a resident in a social media post that has since gone viral.
Gists9ja reports that the statement reflects a broader sentiment of disappointment among those who had hoped Tinubu’s leadership would bring improvements to essential services.
The Nigerian government has yet to release an official statement addressing the outage, prompting many to call for immediate solutions to the country’s chronic infrastructure and power challenges.
