MainPower Electricity Distribution Limited (MEDL) has restored power supply to parts of Enugu metropolis, which witnessed darkness.
NewsBits recalls that some parts of Enugu metropolis, under the Band A tariff regime, during the weekend witnessed three consecutive days of power failure. MainPower, which is a subsidiary of the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC), is in charge of electricity distribution in Enugu State, NewsBits reports.
The Head, Communications of MainPower, Mr Emeka Ezeh, made this known in a press release he issued on Tuesday in Enugu. He said in the press release that “MainPower wishes to inform its esteemed customers that power supply to the Gariki Injection Substation was successfully restored on Monday, July 20, at about 8:30p.m.”
According to him, “This is following the successful resolution of a major fault involving the indoor 11kV breaker at the station. “The fault, which occurred on Friday, July 17, affected electricity supply to customers served by the Army and Gariki 11kV feeders.”
Ezeh, however, said that consequently, normal electricity supply has now been restored to all affected areas. He appreciated residents and customers for “their patience, understanding and cooperation throughout the outage.”
He noted that the company remained committed to delivering safe, reliable, and improved electricity services to its customers and residents of the state, Ezeh also said in the press release.
