 Bende School Project: Tracka's Claim Misleading, Politically Motivated  The attention of the Office of the Deputy Speaker has been drawn to a misleading report published by an organization known as “TrackNG” regarding the construction and furnishing of an ultra-modern conference and e-learning facility at Bende Secondary Grammar School, Bende, Abia State, as captured in the 2024 Federal Government budget.

Ayra Starr Speaks on How Poor Electricity Supply Affected Her Childhood and Family Life


Ayra Starr has opened up about how poor electricity supply in Nigeria affected her childhood and personal growth.


Speaking during the Global Citizen NOW held in New York, the singer explained that growing up without stable electricity influenced many parts of her life, including her education, career journey, and family business activities.


She recalled helping her grandmother sell tomatoes and pepper, noting that the lack of electricity made it difficult to preserve goods for long periods.


She said, “Every Nigerian child has faced some type of electricity issues. My grandma used to sell tomatoes and pepper and I used to assist her. We had to sell it quickly because we didn’t have electricity to store them.


“The harsh experience made me who I am today. Because I had to find ways to do what I had to do without the comfort of electricity.


“Growing up, having electricity would have made a big difference. If I came back from school and I had AC or even a fan in the heat while doing my assignments, that would have made a big difference.”


Ayra Starr also urged African leaders to improve electricity supply across the continent, stressing that children deserve access to electricity and other essential social amenities needed for proper development.
