Electricity consumers in the Southeast region, under the aegis of the South East Electricity Consumers Association (SEECA), have threatened to embark on a one-month warning strike if electricity distribution companies fail to provide prepaid meters to all their customers in the zone.
They have, therefore, set June 15, 2024, for the commencement of the strike if their demand is not met.
The customers stated that they are concerned about the distribution companies’ practice of issuing high and outrageous estimated bills.
The group made this decision at the SEECA Consultative Assembly, SCA Summit held in Enugu, expressing frustration over both epileptic power supply and estimated billing.
