I lost my internship yesterday due to no electricity in my area. I was given a task to do on react.js and was ask to push to GitHub and deploy the app, the deadline was 11:59pm I was already done by 7pm but as soon as I am about to push to GitHub after fixing the bug and everything, the NEPA size the light I waited till 11:30pm just to push my code still they didn't bring it, all my research and everything became a wasted effort. Am heart broken 💔 right now😭 what have we done to deserve this (Nigerian's), it's like if you're a Nigerian you are destined to suffer. Our own government can't give us the citizens 24 hours electricity, its like you hustling to become somebody in future, the country is pulling you down, I hate this country right now.😡😡😡😭😭😭

Sorry bro try as much as possible to get a laptop power bank

You are in Nigeria bro, this issues have existed before both of us were born, so it was for you to quickly find an alternative at that point, go to a hotel lobby, restaurant and buy the smallest item, call a friend or family that normal has electricity backup at that point. It will take alot more time to solve our electrical problems, but you have to move on with your life regardless before that happens.

Sorry about that nonetheless, better luck and preparation next time.

Thanks for telling him this.

OP, if all you do is to give up on slightest obstacle instead of navigating round it, then you can't achieve any greatness in this life even if they put you in the US or UK or any of the advance countries. Challenges will always crop your way to stop, slow or toughen you, success is what you do when such arise, in this case you just sat and hope for the best instead of seeking solution to the power issue.

You did yourself Bro, hope you have learned a lesson or two from this thread of lamentation

You actually allowed this to happen to you..you were well aware of deadline and NEPA… you should have had some plan B options…

U were done by 7pm? Only thing remaining is to push your code?
I don't get ....why will u leave the odds of ur success in the hands of NEPA when u knew the deadline was 11:59pm same day??

As in ..NEPA wey everybody knows say na werey....??

Guy stop blaming NEPA for u own fvck up...

I wanted to say ur story is fake...but I've seen someone do something crazier than this...

Didn't you know you can't depend on NEPA? What was your Plan B? Situations like these will always pop up in life. ... you had no Plan B for electricity... do you have a Plan B if your laptop goes down? .... do you even back up your projects? ... need Plan B in almost everything in life... have a gf.... must have a side chick. More important ... is this how you handle disappointments? I just hope there's no sniper around your home.

Better luck next time, na village people,even NEPA official won't wait for light in that situation.

What kind of laptop are you using that does not have a battery?

Or is It the modem? What exactly do you need Nepa for?

Lol if you can't find anyone using an generator or solar around your area, you're in wrong location. Change it

Blame yourself

Do Nigerians still rely on NEPA?

Why relying on NEPA. Admit it's your fault

Have you travelled out of south west before?

Based on Nigeria's reality when it comes to power supply, you self-sabotaged the internship opportunity.

Next time, make alternative arrangement that would guarantee power supply when yours is off.

So u cannot find person wey on gen for ur area.?? Lol

Are there no barbing saloon, cyber cafe, hotels or any generator user around

Op, I think you contributed to losing the internship.

If I were in your shoes, I know that I'll look for electricity wherever I can find it provided I complete the task.

Better luck next time.

Leave helinues alone. She belongs to prigidypogodo. There are still a million and one girls on NL searching for love you can hook up with.

Op, why do I have this feeling you are just catching cruise, like seriously! You lost this opportunity just because of NEPA?

Someone please help with the meme of a man flogging another with a big stick.

Dude, it’s your fault. You no sabi your country ni?

Btw, Pushing your codebase to git doesn’t even take more than 2mins.

You dey find excuse jor!

I hope u are not one of the rodents daily insulting and cursing nigeria 247 only to expect blessings in return?

If not I say sorry for ur loss, but if yes, I withdraw my sorry

I withdraw my sorry!

No 'sorry' to waste on those who wish evil on nigeria/nigerians!

Korectmann:

Don't say you were not warned. Hope you have not spent too much on her already.

You have yourself to blame for the most part.

If it was truly important, you will create a way, considering you were aware you had no alternative power source. In all you said, you did not state your alternative power source failed.

If you want to be a true achiever, you must learn to be self critical and take destiny in to your hands and not blame "NEPA".

Next time ....for such a deadline like that don't wait for nepa...go out to look for where they on gen in your area...and charge. You can always look out for bars, eateries, barber shop and light conscious neighbors around.

You can even buy extra...laptop battery...to make you longer then 3hrs...
