Popular Twitter handle @UberFacts has come under fire for a controversial fact it tweeted about electricity supply in Nigeria:

Power situation in nigeria is bad but not as bad as you project it @uberfacts — Ozonizer ™ (@MiccOzone) April 28, 2015

And I tot @uberfacts were real. Crap! Do you think Nigeria is a village with less than 100 inhabitants? Get your facts straight next time.
