The Managing Director appealed to customers to refrain from engaging in energy theft, saying that such acts contradict the Eid-el-Kabir spirit of honesty and sacrifice. He emphasised that energy theft is a criminal offence that undermines the quality of service for all customers.

He urged customers to report any issues or complaints to IBEDC offices or call the customer care line instead of resorting to illegal activities.

Mr Agoha also warned against tampering with electrical installations, highlighting the dangers of such actions, which can lead to severe electrical accidents. He advised customers to ensure proper earthing of their premises as a safety measure.

He encouraged customers to utilise IBEDC’s hassle-free payment channels for bill settlements and vending to avoid disconnection.
