Damaturu residents blast YEDC over alleged unfair distribution of electricity
Electricity consumers in Gashua Road in Damaturu, the Yobe State capital have expressed dissatisfaction with the current electricity distribution system implemented by Yola Electricity Distribution Company, YEDC.
The residents through Public Relations Officer, Gashua Road Youth Awareness, Musa Ali Maigari, noted that the recent announcement on the YEDC’s portal regarding the distribution schedule has caused considerable confusion and frustration among members of the community.
“The information provided on the portal is insufficient, as it only mentions Band A without clarifying how Bands B and C operate.
“This lack of clarity has left us uncertain about our electricity allocation and the expected hours of supply. As a result, we are unable to plan our daily activities effectively”, Maigari said.
According to the PRO, the residents, including community leaders, viewed the current situation as disrespectful and unfair.
“We emphasize the importance of engaging with the community and its leaders before making such significant decisions”, he stated
