Nigerian legendary actor, Pete Edochie, has expressed deep concern over the country’s worsening electricity crisis.
Speaking in a recent interview, Edochie lamented the heavy financial burden he bears daily just to power his home.
“I spend about ₦10,000 every day buying electricity units. Then I spend ₦20,000 on diesel to power the generator and another ₦10,000 on petrol for a smaller generator. That brings the total to ₦40,000 daily just to provide electricity in my house,” he said.
He added; “It disturbs me a lot because I’m not just working for electricity. Yet, I hear people who are only interested in getting into politics and enjoying power. Nobody seems to be bothered about what’s happening to the common man.”
