“They rushed out and saw five giant men standing
there with confidence carrying our step down to their
motor but they were unable to succeed in their plan
because our village was aware of that process.

“Those men immediately ran away with their
vehicle. Since one month now, Nimo village in
Anambra has never experienced long lasting
electricity and the electricity light is not stable as
usual.

“The NEPA hardly gives us light for three hours
before it will be taken off. They only gave us light one
second and takes off. Assuming if there is a regular
current in our village, this evil act will not happen”,
the village said.
