Default A/C Compressor not rotating

I'm not getting cold air. On inspection I found out that the compressor doesn't rotate even though the AC button is on and the fan is blowing hot air.
Could this be a relay or fuse problem. I need advice, please.

More likely you need a recharge due to a leak. Any quality A/C shop will check.

Much cheaper to buy a gage and charge yourself if needed. It/s not hard to do.

Likely need a charge and/or a replacement switch (just aft of the radiator on the the left side; if you see green goo, it is blown). Ditto, any good A/C shop; which may be rare in Nigeria.
