Filmmaker Shocked by Rare U.S. Power Outage: X Users React

Filmmaker Stephen Ndukwu was stunned when a five-hour power outage hit his area in Maryland, USA. Renowned for his vibrant posts, he shared this rare experience on X, drawing engaged reactions.

@Olotudemola stood up for Ndukwu, saying, “Why denigrate him? No country is perfect.” 

@Olaoye5 compared the U.S. to Nigeria, citing, “Yours is 5 hours, some have not seen electricity in 5 years.” 

Others, like @Tunde4real, queried, “Only 5 hours? That’s a luxury here!” 

@AmakaLuv replied, “Even the U.S. isn’t perfect, Steve. Welcome to reality.” 

@ChidiOkere joked, “5 hours? Nigeria laughs at that.” 

@BolaTinz posted, “It’s rare there, but it happens. Don’t compare.” 

@KemiStar urged, “Consider the bigger picture, Steve.” 

The post had triggered opposing power situations, whereby some ridiculed it while others considered it a moment of reflection. Ndukwu’s entry evoked a mix of humor, defense, and insight into X.
