Residents Cry Out - 'Help... Ajah Electricity Distribution Is Over Billing Us'!

Residents of 'Orile - Maroko', Lekki Scheme 2 axis, of Lekki - Lagos, woke up to yet another over billing, from the Eko electricity distribution company, Ajah office.

It was gathered that they have been paying these obnoxious bills, even after complains, hoping that things will improve. 

The January bills which arrive Monday morning, February 9, however did not go down well with residents, as they complained of having been without electricity supplies for the past three weeks. "when the lights came three days ago, we suspected they were about to share the bills, as usual". An affected resident disclosed.

And they were not disappointed, as again, the 'bill distribution' officer came with another 'over estimated bill'. 

These questions are on the lips of concerned and affected residents:

• On what barometer  are these bills estimated?

• Who approves them?

• Where does these 'over payed bills' go to?

• Are they used in maintaining the electricity facilities? otherwise, why are the transformers breaking down on weekly basis? 

• Why does it take over three months for someone to get a 'pre-paid meter, after having made payments?

We are hereby calling on the authorities in charge to investigate this  allegation and rescue these residents from this un-whole -some practice.
