By Nkeiruka Innocent Ekeh
Residents of Nkpor in Idemili North Local Government Area have expressed appreciation to Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, following the significant improvement in electricity supply across the community in recent weeks.
About two months ago, many residents lamented prolonged power outages, saying the situation disrupted businesses, affected livelihoods, and reduced their quality of life. They appealed to the state government for intervention.
Following the improvement in electricity supply, residents say economic activities have picked up, while households now enjoy greater convenience and improved living conditions compared to the period of persistent blackout.
Speaking on the development, Mr. Ugochukwu Ekeh described the improved electricity supply as a welcome relief, noting that it has restored normalcy to his daily activities and business.
According to him, he can now preserve drinks, operate electrical appliances efficiently, and no longer depends on candles for lighting, adding that the high cost of fuel made alternative power sources unaffordable.
Mr. Ekeh commended Governor Soludo for his developmental efforts across the state, expressing gratitude for the positive impact the improved electricity supply has made on residents and business owners.
Another resident, Mrs. Uche Nicholas, said the restored power supply has enabled her family to sleep comfortably at night and preserve cooked food in the refrigerator without fear of spoilage.
Also speaking, Mr. Maxwell Ugo, a dry cleaner, said the prolonged blackout had seriously affected his business, making it difficult to earn a living. He added that steady electricity has revived his business.
Mr. Ugo prayed for the sustenance of the improved electricity supply and urged future administrations to consolidate on the developmental strides of Governor Soludo for the benefit of Anambra residents.
