Women Block Officials from Cutting Power After Three Months of Darkness

A viral video shows women confronting Electricity Distribution Company officials who tried to disconnect their power after three months without supply. Speaking in Yoruba, the women accuse the company of failing to restore electricity. They form a human shield around the ladder and prevent the official from climbing the pole. In another clip, a man angrily tells DisCo staff there is no money, no light and yet they still want to disconnect him. Online viewers have praised these citizens for standing up to persistent outages. Nigeria has faced widespread power cuts in recent months. The Power Minister recently apologised and assured citizens that supply would improve within two weeks.
