The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has confirmed that customers across its franchise areas in Oyo, Kwara, Ogun, Ibadan and Osun states will continue to experience intermittent power supply and prolonged outages.

In a statement issued by its management, the company apologised for the inconvenience caused to residents and businesses affected by the situation.

IBEDC explained that the disruptions are due to a reduction in load allocation from the national grid, which has significantly limited the volume of electricity available for distribution within its coverage area.

The company noted that it is currently engaging the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) and the Nigeria Independent System Operator (NISO) in efforts to improve supply stability.

“IBEDC is actively working with TCN and NISO to enhance supply reliability. In the meantime, the available load is being strategically and equitably distributed across feeders and service bands to ensure fairness and operational efficiency,” the statement said.

IBEDC thanked customers for their patience and understanding, assuring them of its commitment to keeping the public informed as the situation develops.
