EEDC to embark on massive revenue drive, disconnect debtors
The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) says it will be embarking on a massive revenue drive and disconnection of indebted electricity customers in the South-East.
This is contained in a statement issued by EEDC’s head of corporate communications, Emeka Ezeh, on Saturday in Enugu.
Mr Ezeh said, “EEDC wishes to inform its customers of its plan to embark on a revenue drive across its district offices in the South-East this Saturday, July 29 and Sunday, July 30 and maybe beyond.
“As a result of this development, our customers will be seeing the staff of EEDC in their neighbourhoods this weekend (Saturday and Sunday), carrying out disconnection of customers that are yet to pay their energy bills.”
He urged electricity consumers to pay current and outstanding bills to avoid being disconnected.
The EEDC spokesman noted that the company could only improve its operations and deliver efficient services when customers promptly pay their bills.
