"The Power of Light: How Access to Clean Energy Transforms Lives in Evbuwa Community"
In the heart of Evbuwa Community, a radiant transformation has taken place, one that can only be described as awe-inspiring. This is the story of how the power of Clean Energy, brought by EtinPower, has ignited the lives of its residents.
Jonathan Osarobo Egharevba, a proud member of this vibrant community, reflects on their remarkable journey from darkness to light. As the "fourth in command" of Evbuwa, his perspective is deeply rooted in the community's shared experience. He reminisces, "Before this light came, we were just in darkness. Surprisingly, when the light came, we were never expecting such a thing like that. Even in the future, we thought such a gesture would not come from anywhere."
The arrival of Clean Energy had a profound impact on Jonathan's family. He continues, "Before you came, my children and my wife, they were managing this store. We spent a lot of money buying fuel, and every few days, our generator would break down. The cycle of spending on fuel and expensive repairs was never-ending. Even my children would buy new generators, and after just a few months, the same experience would repeat itself. But since light came, we are enjoying your services."
The ripple effect of this newfound light has been monumental. Jonathan emphasizes, "Before the light came, everyone had been managing. But today, it has brought a great development to the community. People from Benin are coming to the community to acquire land for building and other purposes. Even companies are coming too, all because of EtinPower. We enjoy your services. God will continue to bless you."
In the neighboring household, Mr. Sunday Igbinidun adds his voice to the chorus of transformation. He recalls the years of darkness that engulfed the community, saying, "For years, we had not experienced light. We couldn't even watch the Governor's speech or keep up with the state of the country because there was no light."
With EtinPower's arrival, Sunday's life, like many others, has taken a brighter turn. "As EtinPower has come to give us light, we can now buy a DVD, operate it, and see the government and the state of the country today," he says. "Through the light we are able to do POS business. With the subsidy removal, I would not have been able to afford fuel to power my generator."
He goes on to emphasize the financial relief access to clean energy has brought: "Before, I would buy fuel for 10,000 naira, and sometimes it wouldn't last for two days. Now, I recharge 2,000 naira worth of energy credit, and it lasts me 10 days in managing my business."
The ripple effects of this newfound light are unmistakable, as Sunday points out, "With the light now, everybody is coming to buy land. EtinPower truly empowers us. The light empowers us to do business without which I would not be able to train my children through school if I was spending as much as 10,000 on fuel for my generator."
In Evbuwa, EtinPower has not only brought light to homes but also ignited hope, opportunity, and community development. As the once darkened nights give way to a brighter future, the residents of this remarkable community stand testament to the transformative power of clean energy.
EtinPower's commitment to providing clean and accessible energy to un-electrified communities continues to change lives, one household at a time. It's a testament to the incredible power of clean energy and the boundless possibilities it brings to those who have lived in darkness for far too long.
