The glory of the Lord shines on me and reveals who I am in the marketplace.
I've been showing up at Nigeria Energy since 2018. Back then I was just a young guy trying to learn the room. This year I walked the same floor and had people I'd never met come up to tell me the work ethic behind @bafemSOLAR and @KommercialSolar has pushed them to go harder on their own projects. One person even sent me money. 😂
Same conference, different season. I didn't set out to be anyone's example. I just kept showing up and doing the work. To now hear that the way we build is moving others to build too? That's a different kind of fuel.
Grateful, humbled, and just getting started.

I don't argue on Twitter,
I don't want more followers,
I am not monetized,
I don't sell anything,
And I don't want anything.
Together with @supersanusi @bigbrovar @netotse and a couple of friends we started an 8000 plus solar and DIY group.
If you can afford it? Get solar.

WHO SAYS RURAL COMMUNITIES MUST REMAIN IN DARKNESS? NOT UNDER PRESIDENT TINUBU’S WATCH ooo
The MD @TheREANigeria @abbaaliyu_ has flagged off the development of 2 interconnected mini-grids and 35 isolated mini-grids, providing approximately 18.8MW of solar generation capacity in Zamfara State @Zamfara_state @daudalawal_
2: A total of 125,106 households across seven LGAs in Zamfara State will benefit: Gummi, Gusau, Kaura Namoda, Maradun, Shinkafi, Tsafe and Zurmi.
3: This is what President Tinubu’s administration is doing to expand access to electricity, create jobs, unlock economic opportunities, support businesses and improve livelihoods in rural communities.
4: Real development is not just about big cities. It is about taking opportunities, infrastructure and a better quality of life to the grassroots. @zyainy @DrAishaYahayaN @trenddaytrader @zamfara_blog @ZariyiYusufu @Usman_Yau_78 @zyainy @easydigita @Eazzy_Ayo622121 @Pathfinder077 @Kingpin_black1 @Tinubunewmedia @YP4Tinubu

I know popular handles have told you, you can't go off-grid.
Skill/Wisdom Issue. 😀
Here is my solar Generation for 2025.
Almost 0, Grid use.
My house is Zoned Band A.
I saved ₦983,753 in 2025.
I travelled for about 6 months in the year and still used 4694 kWh.

Yes! We cannot “solar our way” out of an unreliable national grid.
Also, it’s important to still point out that,no single source fixes this.
But here is the part the debate keeps missing: the centralized grid was never going to reach everyone. Not every home, not every business in this country will be served by it, no matter how much we invest in transmission lines.
So the future is not one source winning. It is every source contributing.Conventional and renewable. Grid power where the grid reaches. Solar, storage, gas and gensets filling the enormous space it does not.
This is not solar versus the grid. It is a national energy mix, with distributed power carrying far more of the load than most people are ready to admit.
In case you didn't know: SRNE Solar has a home in Lekki Phase 1.
@bafemSOLAR runs SRNE Solar Lekki, your spot for original SRNE inverters and batteries right here in Lekki Phase 1. No need to travel to Festac for the real thing.
We deal directly with SRNE, so every unit is genuine and every SRNE warranty is honored right here. Competitive prices for dealers, resellers and end users, across residential and C&I.

“100% solar-powered”
Love the sound of that
This morning, we were officially handed over the facility that will serve as the ISEE Headquarters in Enugu.
Our facility is 100% solar-powered, making it energy self-sufficient and independent of the unreliable national grid.
We will double down on our efforts to achieve 100% literacy across the South East and build Africa’s greatest workforce by 2036.
We will begin welcoming visitors to the facility from next week.
We @KommercialSolar are actually cooking something with #GOODWE.
the coming weeks will be interesting
Make I go read am too.
Excited to read @LeapFrogInvest's The Transition Ledger 2027, exploring how affordable clean technologies can accelerate the #energytransition across emerging markets.
The report highlights the opportunity to build modern, resilient #energy systems.

Today in Gusau, I joined Governor Dauda Lawal to launch the Zamfara State Electricity Policy, commission two solar plants and break ground on 36 solar mini grids. Together, they are expected to connect close to 147,000 homes and businesses.
At the Ahmed Sani Yariman Bakura Specialist Hospital, reliable power will help doctors save lives and preserve essential medicines. Government House will move away from diesel, and 34 mini grids will reach communities beyond the grid. This is the Renewed Hope Agenda in action.
I thank President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his leadership and commend Governor Lawal for his commitment to the people of Zamfara. Congratulations to Zamfara on 30 years of statehood.

Same “solar is not grid” conversation is the one they are expected to connect close to 147,000 homes and businesses.
We will keep educating people here on this app.
