Uduegbunam ChukwujamaThe Enugu Electricity Distribution Plc (EEDC) Monday morning alerted all Southeast customers (Enugu, Anambra, Ebonyi, Abia, and Imo) to an imminent blackout, following what the company described as ‘general system collapse’ to which it admitted it had no solution yet.
A statement signed by its Head of Corporate Communications, Mr Emeka Eze, and made available to Prime Business Africa said the company would only wait on the National Control Centre (NCC) for restoration of power supply to the Southeast.
‘’EEDC wishes to inform her esteemed customers in the South East of a general system collapse which occurred this morning, Monday, 14th March, 2022 at 10:40 am. This is the reason for the loss of supply currently being experienced across the network,’’ Mr Eze said in his statement.
‘’Consequently, all our outgoing feeders are out and supply to our customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo States are affected by this development.
‘’We are on standby and awaiting signal from the National Control Centre (NCC) fo.restoration of supply,’’ Eze concluded.
Why only the southeast? Does it mean that the South East were merged together and anything can happen to the whole East anytime?
Nigeria should do better and stop sectionalizing the country
