The Eko Electricity Distribution Company has expressed regret over the prolonged power outage being experienced by its customers in the Lekki, Ikoyi-and Ajah environs of Lagos State.
In a statement on Friday signed by its General Manager, Corporate Communications, Godwin Idemudia, the company urged the customers to be calm to enable it to fix the issue.
According to Idemudia, EKEDC is working with the Transmission Company of Nigeria to ensure that supply is restored very shortly as the ongoing repair works are almost completed.
“We are not unaware of the difficulties our customers are experiencing within the Lekki, Ajah and Ikoyi areas of our network. As we have restated earlier, the outage is a result of ongoing maintenance by our TCN partners. While the work is already behind schedule, we are glad to inform our customers that the repair work has reached an advanced stage and will be completed as soon as possible,” he said.
Further appealing for understanding and calm, Idemudia said the company remained committed to its objective of providing reliable power to its customers.
