Lagos: Oniru residents berate EKEDC amid blackout, high voltage
The residents of Oniru Resettlement Estate in Lagos State are groaning over weeks of epileptic and damaging power supply.
The citizens reported the matter to the Eko Electricity Distribution Company, EKEDC, office off Ahmadu Bello Way in Victoria Island, yet unresolved.
“We buy light but cannot enjoy it. The annoying aspect is EKEDC staff come every week for monitoring, inspection and disconnection.
“So, what report do they give to their superiors at the office when we hardly have light?” quipped Bode, a tenant on Prince Mustapha Oniru Street.
The poor electricity started just after the New Year holiday, and though the situation improved at some point, it went from bad to worse.
It is either the transformer is not in a good condition or the distribution board breaks down intermittently to the chagrin of consumers.
During the excruciating fuel scarcity Nigerians endured ahead of the general elections, residents suffered double headache: No light, no fuel.
There are also allegations of biased supply as load shedding adversely affects Oniru Resettlement Estate, off Palace Road.
