“I’m running mad in this country” – Williams Uchemba laments over electricity crisis

Williams Uchemba, a well-known actor has expressed worry over the inadequate electricity supply and lack of diesel to run generators.

Williams Uchemba posted a video and a request for permission to rant on his verified Instagram page.

The seasoned actor claimed that although his estate in Lagos State’s Ikoyi neighborhood was well-known for having intermittent power supplies, however, that has changed.

According to him, things have become so bad that the estate that once had 24-hour electricity hardly receives enough power.

He claimed that after being contacted by the PHCN manager in his region, he demanded that the estate chairman visit him to receive “Christmas money.”

He also bemoaned the fact that most petrol stations do not sell diesel, so his chauffeur was unable to get it for him to use to power his generator.

Uchemba claimed that he has now resorted to talking to his neighbors, some of whom are selling diesel to him for N1200 per liter, and that they have raised the price.

‘’I am going mad in this country… The rich are not crying. The rich are dying. With all your money, you will die in Nigeria, the Nollywood actor said.
