Electricity shut-off notice: help Ibrahim pay $100
Help Ibrahim cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this winter.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria1,170 views
The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in May.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through winter without electricity isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Ibrahim's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $50
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $40
Every share and every dollar helps.
