IBEDC

The Osun State governor, Ademola Adeleke, has tasked the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company, IBEDC, to resolve the epileptic power supply in the state. According to a statement by the spokesperson to the governor, Olawale Rasheed, this was made known when Adeleke met the managing director of IBEDC in Ibadan, Oyo State Capital.

Adeleke described Osun as a critical stakeholder in the Nigerian power sector, with Osogbo hosting the National Transmission Control Centre. He said it is unacceptable that the state will have an epileptic power supply, which the governor stressed has been affecting the local economy and businesses badly. He added that Osun State will soon set up its own regulatory agency to address the power sector's challenges.

In his reaction, the Managing Director of IBEDC, Mr Kingsley Achiefe, lauded Governor Adeleke for the interaction, noting that the firm is also ready to collaborate with the Osun State Government to serve their customers better. According to him, the epileptic power supply in Osun State was caused by the drop in power generation.
