Frozen food seller laments power outage
Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG previously reported that a woman who sells frozen food had cried out over a power outage which resulted in losses for her.
Despite spending on fuel for her generator set, the woman lamented that some of her goods were still damaged due to a lack of electricity. She said she lost over N300k in a few days.
To mitigate further losses, she moved her market to a cold room in Port Harcourt. Despite the challenges faced, she, however, remained determined to protect her inventory and maintain her business operations.
