The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has confirmed a reduction in power supply across its coverage areas due to a decline in allocation from the national grid. The company disclosed that the drop in supply has affected electricity distribution to customers, leading to longer outages and reduced availability.
IBEDC explained that the situation stems from challenges within the national grid, which has struggled to maintain stable generation and transmission levels. The company assured customers that efforts are ongoing to stabilize supply and minimize disruptions, while urging patience as the sector works to resolve underlying issues.
This development highlights the persistent challenges facing Nigeria’s power sector, including inadequate generation capacity, transmission bottlenecks, and rising demand from households and businesses.
