#lightupnigeria - The only way foward

#lightupnigeria keep saying it

The phrase #lightupnigeria has been spreading like wild fire, hopefully to an end that would finally restore dignity and a sense of progress to the Nigerian people. Most kids born in Nigeria in the last 2 decades (20 yrs) have probably never seen or enjoyed a four day stretch of uninterrupted power supply... Which spells a hopeless situation for not just the economy but for the mind frame of people... I recently had friends that travelled out of the country and when they got to their temporary places of residence, instinctively all of them brought out the cloths they would wear for the text two day and wanted to iron them... You see what i mean by mind set? #lightupnigeria

Did you know that there are a lot of businesses that one can venture into when there is a scenario of constant power supply? There are a lot of kids that would be out of trouble if there were constant power supply, did you know that you would spend less on feeding with constant power supply and even probably eat better? There are a lot of blockades that have grown into place with the event of no power supply... a lot of head aches have been generated by the noises of generating sets... What can we do? #lightupnigeria

Nepa is on strike but does it make a difference any way? A friend of mine once wrote a wonderful piece on life as a Nepa child and she spoke about the 'good', the 'bad' and the 'UGLY' and i guess the last one was the most noticeable... She ended her writeup with the picture of a candle which says a lot. Is there no other alternative source of energy? Can we not find a way to do away with Nepa? These are questions we should ponder over while we lift up our voices, key pads, key boards, graffiti pens or spray cans and say boldly #lightupnigeria till we begin to see the light grow in our mind set. An we eventually see a Nigeria with constant power supply... If Obama could do it then YES WE CAN!!! #lightupnigeria If we have to say it a hundred time, a thousand times even a million times lets keep on saying it till we are heard or more importantly till we hear it our selves #lightupnigeria #lightupnigeria #lightupnigeria.

We are tired of the situation well i know i am and everyone else in this movement and we will not stop till we see a change. Share this with all you friends let them know that we can make a change, let it be said that the change came in our time... God Bless Nigeria #lightupnigeria
