Before the mini-grid was installed in our community, we had never had access to electricity. If we needed to charge our phones, we would have to go to neighboring communities or seek help from neighbors who could afford generators. Now, every home has a daily supply of electricity. We have power throughout the day, and then the mini grid goes off at about 3 am to enable the batteries to fully recharge before it is turned on again at 6 am.
Those charging their phones in other communities can now do so in their homes. People no longer need to rely solely on their generators for electricity supply in their homes and businesses. I thank PIND for this opportunity and Mr. Francis Owieadolor, CEO, of Oghosa Limited, for accepting to come to our community. Most of the riverine areas around us need access to electricity, which has always been challenging. This opportunity has opened up Adagbarasa Community, and neighboring communities would like to benefit from the project
