We want to hear from you, regular Nigerians, on how electric supply is in your neighborhood. Have you noticed any improvement in the last three months? How many hours of electric supply do you get in a day?

It has been said that the amount of electric supply Nigerians receive depends on where they live. Please alert us where you live, your local government area and state.

From 18min 18s - 18min-58s: "More recently I want to tell you, we did a survey, a national poll of small and medium scale industries in the nation and the poll became positive that there is improvement. Virtually everybody says there is improvement. And this improvement is what we are recording. Because since we came in, uh, this President came into power the improvement has gone from 2,800 megawatts to this 4,400 and still increasing. We expect there will be a lot more improvement by the end of the year." Bart Nnaji, Minister of Power
