Nigeria’s homeowners invest in smart automation amid power, security challenges



As power outages, rising utility costs, and security concerns continue to disrupt daily life, Nigerian homeowners are turning to smart home automation to regain control over their living spaces.

Across Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, a new wave of technology-savvy residents is transforming traditional homes into intelligent environments that anticipate their needs.

At the forefront of this shift is Stealth Autonomous LTD, a Nigerian company specialising in designing automated homes that respond to voice commands and programmed routines. From opening curtains and starting coffee machines in the morning to turning off lights and air conditioning when leaving for work, these systems promise convenience, energy efficiency, and peace of mind.

“Since Stealth Autonomous LTD installed our automation system, guests keep asking how the lights follow us around the house. I just smile,” said Mr Tunde, a homeowner in Lekki Phase 1. Similarly, Mrs Amaka from Maitama emphasised the security benefits: “It is not just tech; it is peace. I can lock my doors from anywhere.”

The adoption of smart home technologies reflects a broader trend in Nigeria, where consumers are increasingly prioritising lifestyle, convenience, and efficiency. Beyond comfort, automation helps homeowners manage energy consumption, reduce bills, and secure their properties without depending solely on traditional power grids or security personnel.

Stealth Autonomous LTD emphasises customisation, offering systems tailored to individual lifestyles and property types, from apartments to duplexes. The company has built solutions for families, professionals, celebrities, and property developers, highlighting the growing demand for integrated home technology in urban Nigeria.

To accelerate adoption, Stealth Autonomous LTD provides incentives including free consultations, complimentary installations for selected packages, six months of maintenance, and a 100% performance guarantee.

Founder Ogunlokun Ayomide underscores that smart living is not a luxury but a necessary step toward comfort and safety in a challenging environment.

As Nigerian homeowners face continued uncertainties in energy supply and urban security, smart home automation is emerging as a practical, lifestyle-driven solution. The trend indicates a significant opportunity for technology providers to expand in a market increasingly willing to invest in homes that are not only secure and efficient but also responsive to their daily needs.
