A Nigerian man based in Ghana has sparked reactions after he slammed his nation for its issues with supplying electricity.

Taking to his TikTok page, the young Nigerian man with the username @moonlord.family claimed that ever since he was in Nigeria, he had not seen a simple, everyday item: an ice block.

According to him, before he relocated to Ghana, while in his country, it had been years since he had electricity, making it more difficult for him to set his eyes on frozen items.

He claimed that he had not seen an ice block in Nigeria for over eight years, since he was in Junior High School, also known as primary school in his home country, remarking:

"God, look at this ice block. For over seven years in Nigeria, I haven't seen an ice block because there's no electricity. Ice block, guy! Nigerians, this is an ice block!"

The sight of something so common in Ghana filled him with joy, reminding him of the simple pleasure of putting ice on his head to cool down on a hot day.

"The last time I saw an ice block in Nigeria was more than eight years ago. Not until I came to Ghana did I see an ice block again.

"You know that feeling when you're just passing by and you can take an ice block like this and put it on your head? Put it on like this to cool you down... to make things cool for you a little."

The man went on to heap praises on Ghana's leadership, specifically mentioning President John Dramani Mahama, for providing 24-hours lights.
