The management of Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) has apologized to some of its customers in Lagos and Ogun States for their inconsistent power supply.
In a statement released in Lagos, Mr. Godwin Idemudia, General Manager of EKEDC’s Corporate Communication department, made the request.
Idemudia said that the irregular power supply was because the National Grid could not handle as much load.
The company’s General Manager said that some customers in parts of Badagry and Ogun State under the Agbara District were affected by the outage.
He did, however, promise the people in the affected areas that life would get back to normal as soon as the capacity was raised.
“What we’re getting from the Grid right now isn’t enough to meet our customers’ needs.
“At the same time, we want to let our valued customers in Lagos Island know that there will be maintenance work on Sunday, January 22 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
