Stable electricity for business

After some block coaches were laid on the foundation, he used iron for the rest of the construction till he roofed it.

He (@i_am_habeebullahi) walled the metal with wooden boards to cool the interior. People saw how he stocked his shop with provision items.

A few people in his comment section even called it a supermarket. He installed solar panels to provide constant electricity and make his shop independent of the national grid supply.

Tubular batteries and MPPT charge controller

The man spent over N1m on a solar system that powers his freezer. His installation used two 240v tubular batteries and an MPPT charge controller.

The cost spent on his solar also included a solar-friendly deep freezer and a DC/AC rechargeable fan.

Solar panels and DC breakers

A solar quote he displayed showed that he needed five solar panels at the cost of N80,000 each.

Things like AC and DC breakers were also included. The installer fee he was charged was N100,000.

He installed tiles for the flooring to give the interior a modern look. After he finished furnishing the shop, he brought different provisions.

His shop was fully stocked. People said he must have spent millions of naira on the building project and business.
