The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has apologized to customers in Ogun, Oyo, and Kwara states for blackouts on Monday. Several feeders failed to meet their mandated daily electricity supply hours, with some recording zero hours of supply. IBEDC attributed the disruptions to technical faults, load shedding, forced outages, and disconnections over non-payment.
Some of the affected feeders included the Water Works (Ojere) 33kV, Railway (Papa) 33kV, and Moniya Railway 33kV, all of which were out due to disconnection for non-payment. Other affected feeders recorded varying lengths of supply, with the Oluyole 11kV feeder experiencing 15 hours and the Molete Industrial 33kV feeder experiencing 19 hours.
IBEDC has since restored power to most affected feeders but acknowledged that the Water Works (Ojere) 33kV and Moniya Railway and Railway (Papa) 33kV feeders remain without supply due to disconnection.
