Description

As a result of lack of electricity in Northern Nigeria, for over a week now, many cities and towns have been wallowing in darkness.

The blackout has not just cut off lights and fans—it's cut off livelihoods: business owners are struggling to keep their shops open, families are finding it difficult to communicate, and even the simple task of charging a phone has become a luxury.

In this episode, we focus on how this blackout has impacted the lives of ordinary people and business owners, as well as its economic implications for the region.
