Despite seemingly having a steady power supply, the Nigerian man said some Ghanaians still complained about occasional power outages.

"Baba, see light everywhere; I'm not in the USA, I'm in Ghana, but see the light. Ghanaians still complain about power outages. Ghana is like Europe," he said.

He further called out his homeland's political leadership for their failure to solve the power crisis in the country.

Nigeria, the largest economy in West Africa, has been battling a power crisis for many decades, with the political class failing to find a lasting solution to the problem.

Many citizens of the country have expressed their disappointment over Nigeria's power situation on social media.

Below is the video of the Nigerian man sharing his experience in Ghana.
