IBEDC apologises to customers over blackouts in Ogun, Oyo, Kwara

The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has apologized to Band A customers in Ogun, Oyo, and Kwara states for the blackouts that occurred on Monday. The company cited a combination of technical faults, load shedding, forced outages, and disconnections due to non-payment as the reasons for the supply disruptions. Some feeders recorded zero hours of electricity supply, including the Water Works (Ojere) 33kV feeder, which serves Arakanga Water Scheme and Iberekodo in Abeokuta, and the Railway (Papa) 33kV feeder, which supplies the Papalanto Train Station.

Many other affected feeders recorded between 12 and 19 hours of supply due to equipment faults, load shedding, and other disruptions. IBEDC remains committed to delivering the estimated hours of supply to its customers.
