Power outage

Lagos, Nigeria
November 21, 2021 5:22pm CST
As I typed my first note on the platform, there was a sudden power outage, which made me drop my phone searching for touch lights and stuff.. Hmm if you are from these parts you learn to live with constant power failures, it's a way of life here

@Slobevoler A weeks a long time without power. How do you heat your home or cook when the powers off for a week?

Be prepared with a few solar lights and battery flashlights and lights and candles if possible and always keep your phone charged. Your phone also has a flash light
