The Cause of the Outage
According to a public notice released by AEDC, the power disruption is directly linked to road construction work currently underway between Soje and the Kpakungu Round-about. This construction has interfered with the feeders supplying electricity to these locations, resulting in a temporary blackout.
️ Restoration in Progress
AEDC assures residents that their technical team is on-site and working around the clock to restore electricity as quickly as possible. While no specific restoration timeline was given, the company appreciates the public’s patience and understanding during this period.
