The most terrifying part of this story isn't just the potential abduction; it's the clock. Authorities confirmed Nancy needs daily medication to survive, and she has been without it for over 48 hours. This isn't just a search; it's a medical emergency. The kidnapper—if there is one—needs to understand that they are effectively killing her by withholding those meds. Every hour that passes without a lead significantly lowers the chances of a safe return. The community in Tucson needs to check every camera, every doorbell, right now.

It is peak 2026 that on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the #1 trending topic isn't voting rights or economic justice—it's a pastor's wife's dress. The internet losing its mind over Karri Bryant's 'nude illusion' gown at the Mayor's Ball is so unserious. We are debating 'respectability politics' while actual civil rights protections are being rolled back. Dr. King didn't die so we could police women's bodies on Instagram. Focus on the mission, not the mesh.

For the first time, NERC actually seems serious about punishing DisCos. They just fined 8 DisCos over ₦600 million for violating billing caps. This is the energy we need. For years, these companies acted like they were untouchable gods. If NERC keeps hitting their pockets every time they overbill an unmetered customer, they will be forced to roll out meters faster. Don't just complain on Twitter; report them to NERC. The sanctions are working.

We keep screaming about 'Crazy Bills,' but we ignore the root cause: The subsidy is eating the entire sector alive. The government paid ₦458 billion in electricity subsidies in just three months, and we still don't have stable power. Why? Because we are paying for inefficiency. The DisCos don't care about metering you because 'estimated billing' guarantees them revenue whether they supply power or not. Until we kill the estimated billing regime effectively—not just on paper—the grid will never improve.

The 'Estimated Billing' system is the biggest legalized fraud in Nigeria. NERC released the January 2026 capping order to protect unmetered customers, but the DisCos are ignoring it completely. I just saw a bill for ₦85,000 for a 2-bedroom flat that had light for maybe 4 days this month. They are literally billing us for the darkness. If you don't have a prepaid meter in 2026, you aren't a customer; you are a hostage. We need to start suing these DisCos individually for violating the NERC cap.
