View descriptionShare
 

Fewer than half of people surveyed across Africa say they have a reliable supply of electricity, according to a new report by Afrobarometer. The study, covering 38 African countries, finds that rural and poorer households are significantly less likely to have access to reliable power. Almost a quarter of those surveyed say they use alternative sources of electricity, most commonly solar. For more on what the findings mean for households and governments across the continent, we're joined by Daniel Iberi, Afrobarometer's Communications Coordinator for East Africa.
