Williams Uchemba, a popular Nigerian actor and philanthropist, has lamented the country’s poor electricity supply and the scarcity of diesel to power generators.
Williams Uchemba posted a video to his verified Instagram page with the caption “Permission to Rant?”
The seasoned actor stated that he lives in an estate in Ikoyi, Lagos state, which was known for having intermittent power supply, but that has changed.
He stated that things have now deteriorated to the point where the estate, which used to have 24 hour power, barely receives adequate power supply.
According to him, the PHCN manager in his area was contacted, and he insisted that the estate chairman come and see him so that he could get ‘Christmas money’.
He also bemoaned his driver’s inability to obtain diesel for him to use and power his generator because it is in short supply at most gas stations.
Uchemba stated that he has now resorted to speaking with his neighbors who have diesel to sell him, and that some of them have raised the price from N1200 per litre.
‘’I am going mad in this country… The rich is not crying. The rich is dying. With all your money, you will die in Nigeria,” the Nollywood actor said.
