Power supply from NEPA in Awoyaya is very inconsistent. You might get electricity a few hours daily but timing is completely unpredictable. Some newer estates have shared generator backup that runs during peak hours; service charges cover this where it exists. Many buildings don't have estate backup; you'd need personal generator or inverter for constant power. If you work remotely or need reliable power, personal backup is essential; budget for this cost. Ask about generator availability and schedules during viewing. Many estates limit backup to evening hours only. Prepaid NEPA meters are standard. Factor in significant costs of running personal generator frequently if estate doesn't provide adequate backup. Power is a real challenge in emerging areas.

Traffic from Awoyaya to the Island is extremely challenging during rush hours. Morning commute (7-9am) to VI can take 2+ hours, sometimes longer with accidents or heavy congestion. You're 20-25km from central Lekki; the distance is significant. Evening return (5-7pm) is equally brutal. Off-peak travel is faster; 45-55 minutes, but rush hour is the reality for 9-to-5 jobs. If you have very flexible hours, work remotely most days, or can travel off-peak consistently, it's manageable. For strict Island office hours, honestly assess if 4+ hours daily in traffic is sustainable long-term. Many Awoyaya residents wake by 5am to beat traffic. Weekend travel is lighter. Seriously consider Mainland jobs or remote work if living here.
