It is deeply frustrating and unfair that we, the Umuokpu indigenes of Awka, have been subjected to prolonged power outage .
Since December 2025, during the Christmas period, up till this very moment, we have not enjoyed stable electricity. At first, you would give us light for just a few minutes and take it away. Now, you no longer supply electricity to our community at all.
This situation is unacceptable.
We are law-abiding citizens who still receive and are expected to pay electricity bills, yet we live in total darkness. Our businesses are suffering, our daily lives are disrupted, and our comfort has been taken away. Electricity is not a luxury — it is a basic necessity.
We, the people of Umuokpu, demand an immediate explanation and urgent action. We deserve reliable power supply like every other community. Silence and neglect are not solutions.
We call on EEDC to do the needful and restore stable electricity to our area. Enough is enough.
