EEDC Gives Reason For Power Outage In Imo State

 


The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC), has blamed the power outage in Imo State on industrial action by workers.

Emeka Ezeh, head of Corporate Communications, EEDC, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday.

He explained that the electricity workers union shut down Egbu Transmission Station causing darkness in the state.

“The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company PLC (EEDC) wishes to inform her esteemed customers in Imo State that the loss of supply currently being experienced is as a result of the industrial action by the organized labour union in Imo State.

This led to the union shutting down our source of supply at Egbu Transmission Station, leaving us with no energy to distribute to our customers.

“As a result of this development, the whole of Imo State is without electricity supply.

We apologize for  the inconveniences this situation must have caused our customers, and we hope that the issue will be resolved soon.

Be assured that we are on standby to restore supply once the industrial action is called off.

“EEDC is committed to improving on its processes and delivering improved services to her esteemed customers,” the statement said.

The development comes barely 24 hours after workers in the state staged a protest on Wednesday.
