Hello readers, I will be writing about electricity today. I will be using Nigeria as a case study. Electricity is one of the factors that contributes to the success of an organisation.
Developed countries have been able to maintain a constant power supply. If they are able to have constant power then it is achievable. Constant electricity could attract good companies, thereby creating employment opportunities. This could alievate poverty in the developing countries. Thus, the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of the economy will improve.
The challenge here with having constant power supply is also not to pollute the environment as fossil fuel is mostly used for the supply of electricity. Greener alternatives could be used such as tidal energy and wind energy.
In my opinion, electricity could be constant in Nigeria if the industry is privatised. The privitisation of the telephone industry made mobile phone easily accessible by individuals. Most people own a phone, both the poor and the rich. In the past only the rich could afford a mobile phone.
Privatisation of electricity could be expensive at the initial stage like sim cards, however, it could reduce later as a result of competition. Innovative ways to reduce cost could be explored. Generators and inverters which are the alternative used in Nigeria with generators being the one used the most. Inverters are expensive and it requires electricity to charge it too which could make your electricity bill go up.
Generators on the other hand emit harmful waste into the air. Noise pollution is another one of its effect. If a business runs on generators mostly it increases their costs, thereby, making their profit go down. I know of a company that left Nigeria because of lack of power supply. I would suggest privitisation of the electricity industry. Allah knows best.
Everything should be done for the sake of Allah. Part of doing something for the sake of Allah means hoping for a reward from Him in this life and the Hereafter. Everything happens according to the will of Allah (you have freewill, therefore, you are responsible for your actions).
Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah). Peace be upon Prophet Muhammed. Thank you for reading this article. Keep checking out this blog. Cheers!
