The Nation Newspaper Residents, business owners decry continuous power outage in FCT

Some residents and business owners in Bwari Area Council of the FCT, have decried the continuous power outage in the area by the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company on Thursday in Abuja, said that the situation was not only causing discomfort but crippling economic activities in the area.

Johnathan, therefore, urged the Federal Government to look into the epileptic power supply in Abuja, the nation at large and find a lasting solution to the issue. “If I have to buy fuel to power my generator, I may have to increase the price of drinks and people may not buy much because not many can afford it.

Similarly, Mr Matthew Onoja, another resident and business man, also said that government needed to put more effort into providing better power supply, especially with the incessant hike in power tariff. “The government should do something about this, it is not about increasing tariff every time; at least let us see what we are paying for, and then we will not grumble if it increases again.In another development, residents of Masaka in Nasarawa State have also called on the government and relevant authorities to rectify issues surrounding the over one month power outage in the area.

“How do we remain in business if we don’t bring the price up? We want those concerned to come and help us as we cannot continue depending on diesel for businesses.” Joseph, while appealing for speedy solution to the unfortunate situation, urged government to improve on the power system and ensure that policies meant to improve on service delivery to consumers were achieved.
