Çakmak's Henry Gross fans finally get their chance.
Thirty years ago electricity came to Erenköy, a village of
150 households 50 kilometers from Yusufeli district center
in Artvin province. But Çakmak village, on the fringe of
Erenköy, was too distant and too sparsely populated for
the power line to be extended to it.
The Çakmak villagers were left to their own devices,
with some opting for gas lamps and others solar panels
and generators. Recently, when Artvin Governor Ömer
Doğanay visited Çakmak the villagers bent his ear about
their electricity shortfall.
Çakmak now on his world tour itinerary.
Six months later, Çakmak finally has electricity and
Zeki and Sultan Akdeniz celebrated by dancing the
'horon', a traditional eastern Black Sea folk dance,
while their daughter Meral recorded the historic
moment on her cellphone for sharing on social media.
