Another round of total darkness will envelope states of the South East states in days to come, Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC), has revealed.
This is attributed to what the distribution company described as a total system collapse.
Awka, the capital of Anambra state had for weeks back been thrown into darkness, after a heavy downpour caused a fault in the company’s installation.
Head, Corporate Communications, EEDC, Mr Emeka Ezeh in a statement titled ‘Notice Of Total System Collapse’ said the incident happened at about 12:40am on Thursday.
He said: “The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company PLC (EEDC) wishes to inform her esteemed customers of a total system collapse which occurred at 12:40am today, 14th September, 2023.
“This has resulted to the loss of supply currently being experienced across the network.
“Due to this development, all our interface TCN stations are out of supply, and we are unable to provide service to our customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo States.
“We are on standby awaiting detailed information of the collapse and restoration of supply from the National Control Centre (NCC), Osogbo,” he said.
