The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has attributed the intermittent power supply and prolonged outages experienced across its franchise areas to a reduction in electricity allocation from the national grid.
In a public notice issued on Tuesday, the company said customers in Oyo, Kwara, Ogun, Osun and parts of Ibadan have been affected, apologising for the inconvenience caused.
According to IBEDC, the reduced allocation has limited the volume of electricity available for distribution, necessitating operational adjustments to manage supply across its network.
The company said it is engaging the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) and the Nigeria Independent System Operator (NISO) to improve supply stability and service reliability.
“Pending improvement, available load is being strategically allocated and equitably distributed across feeders and service bands to ensure fairness and operational efficiency,” the statement said.
IBEDC assured customers that it remains committed to keeping them informed as the situation evolves and thanked them for their patience and understanding.
