Untold hardship, as 50 Lagos communities live 16yrs without electricity

The Vanguard report; Life for no fewer than 200, 000 residents residing in over 50 communities within the Gbaji-Seme Border axis of Badagry West Local Council Development Area of Lagos State, has been 16 years of untold hardship and endless wait without electricity.


Since 1999, when a devastating rainstorm wreaked havoc in the community, felling down electric polls which connected these communities to the national power grid, the Lagos State and Federal Government had apparently abandoned the residents to live in perpetual darkness.
The Gbaji-Seme area, is a border community that links Nigeria to her neighbouring Benin Republic.
