Onuimo Lawmaker Slams EEDC for Neglecting Communities

The member representing Onuimo State Constituency in the Imo State House of Assembly, Hon. James Esile, has strongly criticized the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) for neglecting several communities under his constituency for an extended period.

During a recent House session, Esile expressed his concerns about the lack of electricity in many areas within his constituency, stating that the EEDC has not provided adequate power supply for some time now.

The lawmaker emphasized the importance of electricity in the daily lives of the people and the negative impact the power outage has had on their well-being and economic activities.

“It is unacceptable that our people have to endure such prolonged periods of darkness due to the negligence of the EEDC,” said Esile.

“We demand that the EEDC take immediate action to restore power to our communities and ensure that this issue is not repeated in the future.”

The Onuimo State Constituency has been facing severe power shortages, with some areas not having electricity for weeks or even months.

This has led to disruptions in the daily lives of residents and has also affected businesses and other economic activities in the region.

Esile’s call for action has garnered support from other members of the House, who have also expressed their concern about the situation.

They have urged the EEDC to address the issue promptly and ensure that the affected communities receive the electricity they are entitled to.

As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how the EEDC will respond to the concerns raised by the Onuimo State Constituency and whether they will take the necessary steps to resolve the issue.

The people of Onuimo are hopeful that their voices will be heard and that their power supply will be restored in the near future.
