EKEDC Has Refused To Give Us Light Because Of An Old Debt Of Almost #184,000 by Kles(op): 4:47pm On Mar 12, 2021
Dear Nairalanders,

This is currently the experience of a family since moving into their new apartment 4 years ago. For almost 2 months, they didn't have light because the previous tenants refused to pay EKEDC due to the crazy bills they had been getting. The bill owed stood at #184,000 and the Landlord never told them a thing about it before moving in. There has been several back and forth with EKEDC due to this and most times, they would go months without light. The Landlord was always aware of this and claimed they had taken the issue to EKEDC with no positive result.

The new tenants were told to switch to the new prepaid system so as to avoid the crazy bills being sent by EKEDC as they would only pay for what they use. Presently after the switch, they ran out charge and on wanting to recharge, they were told they couldn't until the precious bill owed by the old tenants was paid.

What do they need to do? Rent expires this month. Do they pay the outstanding bills with part od the rent?

This money was owed by the previous tenant who moved out 4 years ago. The landlord never told new tenants anything about any bill being owed. Are they now to pay for what they never used?

yeah, it is but how do they tackle it now. They have been in darkness for close to a month recently. going back, they have endured so many months of darkness. The only thing the landlord keeps telling them is that the lawyer is following up with EKEDC.
