PHCN officials will never tell you its available!! Ordinary meter never dey, na prepaid!!

vizboy: to all those complaining of phcn bills try and get yourself a prepaid meter and see if your situation wont change

in my area, Mgbuoba (back of NTA axis), we hardly have light! sometimes is 2-4 hrs and mostly at nite with very very low voltage. the landlords have made several complaints to PHCN upto Abuja but still no light! this situation has been on for more than four years! As a matter of fact, we live on generator 365 days! Several repairs have been going on by landlords/ladies on cables and the rest. Just recently, a suggestion to change the transformer was made by PHCN citing age of the present one. landlords made appeals to NDDC and a transformer was delivered. Now PHCN said they dont have funds to install it and this made the landlords to task each house N50,000. As am writing, I have been reliably informed that nobody has yet to contribute this sum and that means we continue to depend on generator for God knows when! Light generally in PHCN is very poor considering the various power projects initiatives that have been on for almost a decade in Rivers State. Its a shame!!
