SocialMediaTrends: Nigerians wonder why power has been relatively stable of late

Nigerians have over the past few months depended mostly on alternative power supplies following repeated collapse of the National Grid.

But within the last few days, many have testified that power had been relatively stable in their residence, especially in most parts of the country’s major commercial city, Lagos.

On Saturday, Nigerians took to social media to react to the uninterruption of electricity supply by the Distribution Companies.
