Electricity and network were after my life today
It's unserious or it's sounds unserious but my mood was badly affected today.
It's 11:pm and after dropping this piece I will hit my bed because I don't want to continue deliberating on how MTN network (poor network) and power outage treated me today my mood will remain the same.
What happened?
As usual I woke up in the morning with the plan of working from home without stepping out of my comfort zone.
I prepared breakfast then went to have my morning bath so I can face work squarely without any distraction.
Immediately I stepped out of the bathroom electricity went off, my mood changed immediately because I can't work without electricity, I had to go look for fuel for the generator, it took me more than an hour to get fuel, when I got fuel I thought I am done so I sat down with the aim of resuming work.
I put on my system and data, there was no network signal, I put off my data connection and put it on again it was still same, I can barely login and sign up for the day, my boss was calling to ask why am not replying mails, I explained to him what I was facing, he suggested maybe I should top up my data, immediately I bought data of 11k to get more 30gb but still I can't do anything.
I reached out to MTN customer service number, they picked, asked me to put my phone on flight mood for 10mins after everything there was still no network.
The funniest part was that the signal was showing but I can't open any sight with it.
Before I could say Jack it was already pass noon and there is a very important work I need complete and submit today, I had to quickly rush out of the house, I went to our office where I can get a stronger network signal, before I could get there it was pass three already and I was exhausted, hungry and angry but I have no option than to quickly complete the task.
I left the office by 7:pm and I spent some time in traffic, finally am home and my network is fully back, and there is electricity that has been stable for over three hours after disrupting my plan for the day.
I had plans of cooking but I couldn't cook, I had plans of washing my clothes, I couldn't do anything for myself today just because of network and now it's late and the network is back.
Anyway am grateful for everything.

That was an awful experience you had. You should have the son cards of other telecom providers as backup, like glo or Airtel so you can use them when MTN fails. Lately MTN has been behaving funny lately.
I really don't understand why these network providers continue to mess with their customers, and the authorities aren't doing anything about it.
Imagine going through all these when you were hoping for a stress-free day.
I can relate with your experience because it has almost become a daily routine here.
