A Lagos resident shared a humorous account of her evening, where she set out to address an ongoing issue of electricity theft by thieves in her compound.
The situation arose after her older sister relocated to Lagos. As the resident had been assisting with several tasks, from securing accommodation to furnishing the apartment, they purchased a large generator last week.
The generator initially powered both the fridge and air conditioner with ease, but just five days later, it could no longer handle the load.
When her sister complained about the sudden drop in performance, she suggested returning the generator to the store.
However, her younger sister suspected that something else was at play—someone in the compound might be tapping into their electricity.
With this suspicion in mind, she decided to take matters into her own hands. Armed with what she jokingly referred to as her “tools for mass destruction,” she prepared to confront the neighbors who had likely tapped into the electricity. Her plan? To turn on the generator and increase its power, forcing the freeloading neighbors to reveal themselves.
As soon as the generator was switched on, two houses in the compound—belonging to a tenant and the landlord—suddenly lit up. The sound of the generator immediately changed under the increased load, confirming her suspicion. In an effort to document the situation, she recorded a video as evidence in case any disputes arose.
What followed was the sound of blasting light bulbs and a loud spark from both houses, which prompted the resident to turn off the generator and feign innocence. The tenant and landlord’s son came out, but they remained silent and quickly retreated back into the house, fully aware of what had just happened.
Her sister, still new to the compound, was taken aback by the swift action. But for the younger sister, this was just the beginning. She vowed to continue her efforts the next day, anticipating that tensions would rise in the compound.
“This is just stage one,” she said. “Tomorrow, we will continue from where we stopped. Wahala will surely unfold from tonight.”
Full statement below: “I’m heading out to go and show someone shege this evening.”
“A big sister of mine relocated to Lagos, and since I am here, I had to assist with quite a few things, from accommodation to buying of needed things in the apartment. We bought a big generator last week, and the generator carried both the fridge and air conditioner comfortably.”
“Only to discover 5 days after purchase that the generator can no longer carry her fridge or air conditioner. When she complained, she said she wants to go and return to where she got it 😩😩😩. I started laughing because I know she doesn’t know what’s going on 🤣🤣🤣.”
“I have gotten my tools for mass destruction, and the neighbors who tapped her light are about to hear exploding sounds today.”
“My own is to turn on the gen and increase it 🤣🤣🤣🤣, and everywhere will set with *gba gbo gba*, and I will turn it off, and we will stroll out to go have some drinks.”
“Some neighbors are evil; they must know the calm sister has a petty sister that can match their energy. In this era of T Pain, you go dey tap person light and generator and have the guts to use fridge.”
“Wish me luck.”
“We turned on the generator, and two houses in the compound had light 😂😂😂 — landlord and one tenant. Immediately, the load came on the generator, and the sound became different. We did a video recording as evidence because some people can move mad and even kept one phone and tripod at an angle to cover the whole event because evidence is necessary when the landlord wants to move mad.”
“I increased the generator, and all we could hear was blasting of bulbs and a loud spark from the two houses, and we turned off the generator and acted like, “What did we hear?”
“Both the tenant and the landlord’s son came out but couldn’t say anything. They went back into the tenant’s house. So obviously, they know what just happened 👌.”
“My sister was just looking at me, surprised — less than one week in the house? My own is this is just stage 1.”
“This is where I stop in the shege. Tomorrow, we will continue from where we stopped. I know it won’t end here. Wahala will sup in the compound from tonight.”
“I will gist you all.”
