Business owners groan over Lokoja’s three-month blackout





Aisha Husseini’s dream of building a business out of ice blocks supply to retailers of sachet water is becoming a pipe dream by the day as the continuous blackout in Kogi State, particularly, the state capital, Lokoja, has gone on without attention from authorities.
The 25-year-old mother of three said the power situation in Lokoja was not that good in the past but now, it has gone bad to worse.
Aisha, who runs a business centre, instead of her dream iced block business, along Ibrahim Babangida way, Lokoja, said the price of the cost of running the business centre itself is high enough as the cost of fuelling her generators daily has not been helping matters.
