Eko Hot Blog reports that the Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) has alerted its customers on Lagos Island of an impending maintenance work scheduled for Sunday, January 22, 2023, between 9 am and 1 pm.
The company issued the alert through its General Manager, Corporate Communication department, Godwin Idemudia, on Saturday.
EKEDC said the Ikoyi and other areas under Lagos Island District will be out of power supply during the maintenance work.
The distribution company’s management also apologised to some of its customers in Lagos and Ogun States over the irregular power supply they were experiencing.
According to Idemudia, the irregular power supply being experienced was due to reduced load capacity from the National Grid.
