The Struggle Is Real, Surviving In The Dark.

Hmmmmm that's just a word for my own situation, I wish I could relate to the experience of seeing light and shouting Nepaaaa, approximately four months now and in a student area for that matter there's no light because of thousand reason we have been hearing, so for this week prompt I am going to be telling you how frustrated the cease of Nepa supply has made me.  My resumption to FUE Pankshin should be around April and since when I resume I have seen Nepa light twice in my room which was in a Sunday evening and Monday evening too after which I have not seen light in my room till now, according to our caretaker the issue is not only facing our street only but many other street that are using the same transformer with us so it is not something he can fix for us and it was something that spoilt in the transformer due to a heavy rain that fell that Monday night so to replace what got spoilt is quiet expensive that is why they just left it like that till further notice, a student area like this not having light is the worst experience ever before it kills our motivation to read.  Having highlighted our power supply condition I think it's necessary that I tell you how we survive here in school, so when this recently started as a JJC in the field I was plugging my phone everyday for money and we were #150 per charging, if it's a power bank then it's #250 so that was how I was enriching all these charging centers here every single day sometimes I would dodge till the next day managing my battery so dearly because at the time percentage in your phone is money, until along the line I discovered places where I can be charging my phone and those places are actually not 100% secured because many feet are also walking in and out of those places.  I either charge it inside school where they use solar as their power supply or I charge it in my uncle's shop he also uses solar to run his shop, or I would charge it in a bar where one of my course mate is working and is the manager there or I would charge it in a barbing salon or one of my neighbor who installed solar too. Practically it's mostly solar that is used around here even those charging centers uses solar except in situations where for the whole day it was rainy and there was no sun that's when they use generator to charge our phones, the whole of FUE Pankshin too are using the school whereby every department have their own solar too.  My street have not been able to navigate through the situation because we are still left in the dark wandering about with our phones looking for where to charge, even when they were bringing it I experienced a rationed light where it was only in the evening to the early hours of the morning that they leave the light, they thieves around this area might have stolen more than the street transformer because just this morning while I was going to snap it the state which I saw it was really funny, grass has grown everywhere and it looked so unkept. The Nepa bill which we pay here is monthly whereby it's attached to our house rent at once, imagine a house rent of about#27,000 what would be the Nepa bill inside, I wanted imagining how much was the cut for the Nepa bill and I ended up with #2000 which I am not sure about because it's not certain.  If you are here and you don't have a power bank like me it would be hard to survive that's why I am working hard to see if I can afford a power bank so as to reduce the stress of looking for where to charge and to reduce the uncertainty of the safety of my phone so join me in prayers as I aim in buying a power bank. At this junction I would like to drop my pen and take my leave. It's been a lovely experience going through this route with you and I hope to see you next time. All images used here belongs to me.
