For real, yeah, repeated AEDC power outages in Abuja are actually scaring off some investors. If I was going to start a business or put cash into real estate here, I'd worry a lot about losing power all the time. Investors want things to be stable, and power is at the top of that list. Imagine putting your money into a new shopping center or factory, only for it to be shut down every other week because the lights go out.

I've heard of a few people who passed on bringing their businesses to Abuja just because they didn’t want to deal with generators all the time or risk things going bad—like food or even important data. Every time there's an outage, it just looks bad for Abuja and for AEDC. It’s not just an inconvenience; it can wreck profits and make more people say "nah, not worth it."

So yeah, I think until AEDC sorts this out properly, it’s gonna keep making people hesitate. I’d say if you’re thinking about investing, you gotta have a solid backup plan for power, or you might just regret it.
