The management of Ikeja Electric (IE) has announced a planned one-month interruption in power supply to some areas within its network to enable maintenance work.

Mr Felix Ofulue, the company’s Spokesman, told newsmen on Friday, March 3, in Lagos that the interruption would take place from March 6 to April 4.

Ofulue said the outage was to enable the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) to carry out routine work on the Ikeja West Transmission Station.

He said that Ojodu, Magodo, Alausa, Oke-Afa, Bolorunpelu, Egbe, Igando, Shasha, Ipaja, Alimosho, Agege, Egbeda and Abesan would experience power outage during the period.

According to the spokesman, other areas to be affected include Ayetoro, Abule-Taylor, Ogba, Ifako, Shomolu, Gbagada, Oworonshoki, Ogudu, Isheri-Olowora, Berger, Anthony and Otta.

“ We are appealing to consumers to bear with the company during the maintenance work. The maintenance will enhance improved service delivery,”he said.

AntiWailer:


So u av not had light for 1 month ?

Lie small small na.

Dude it's no lie
In the last one month I doubt if I've had 72hrs light in total.

I run gen every evening and twice daily on weekends. It's the norm now in my area. This announcement is laughable.

The 72hrs I am talking about is the three days following the deposition of thier bill in my house.

This is fishy journalism with embellished facts

The real story:
There will be a planned outage at the Ikeja West Transmission Station which will affect the Oworo 132KV Lines 1 & 2. The outage will commence on 6th Feb and end on 21st Feb, 2017. This is to enable technicians carry out some protective maintenance work. During this time, Oworo 132KV Line will be diverted to Akangba Transmission Station. However this will result in unavoidable load shedding at Oworo Transmission Station. Some of the affected areas are Gbagada, Anthony, Ogudu, Ladi Lak, Pedro, Oworo, Ifako and environs. We apologize for all inconveniences and ask our customers to kindly bear with us.

This is a different planned outage. That one has come and gone. This one is for a different area.

To even think that billions have been budgeted yearly for effective power distribution for the last 20 years or more and yet the masses cannot enjoy 24 hours power supply is sad and patheticangry angry

Does your car run for 24 hours? Don't you take it for servicing before it breaks down? Allow them service the transmission lines. This outage is not even coming from distribution side, it's transmission but the company has to do the announcement.

So brothels and hotels will have to buy diesel throughout the one month of the black-out.

Nothing ever changes for the better in Nigeria.

Carefully checking, the same Nepa stories from the past 10yrs or more are almost the same your read about in the present times.

And, there's no guarantee that next year or more it won't get any better.

Just a repetition of untold suffering.

Sad.
