Residents across Lagos State would continue to experience significant power disruptions due to ongoing faults on the 330kV transmission lines.
The management of the Eko Electricity Distribution Company confirmed this in a statement released on its X handle on Monday.
The company further confirmed that the persistent load-shedding is a direct result of reduced power allocation from the Transmission Company of Nigeria, their primary partner in power distribution.
“This is to kindly update you that we are still experiencing reduced power allocation from our TCN partners due to faults on the 330kV lines feeding the Lagos region.
“The situation has resulted in the continued load-shedding across our network leading to the current power situation you are experiencing,” EKEDC stated.
The disruption has caused widespread frustration among Lagos residents and businesses, who rely heavily on a stable power supply, as EKEDC acknowledged the inconvenience, assuring customers that they are actively working to resolve the issue.
9News Nigeria reports that part of the statement revealed that; “Rest assured that we are taking all necessary steps to address the situation as we work closely with TCN and other partners to resolve the issue and ensure a more stable power supply soonest”.
EKEDC also thanked their “valued customers” for their “patience and understanding” during this challenging period.
EKEDC has stated that it will continue to work with TCN to restore the full power supply as quickly as possible.
