Residents of Diobu have cried out against management of Portharcourt Electric Distribution, PHED, for the company’s inability to provide the area with electricity.
The angry residents who spoke to a TPCN correspondent, stated that the area has not had electricity for two weeks.
The residents said that the inhumane treatment by the power distribution company has made life in the area unbearable and has affected businesses.
However, a representative of the power distribution company said that the company does not generate power but only distribute amounts allocated to it.
He maintained that the waves of protests against the company in Portharcourt is unnecessary as it is a national problem stating that the company has begun rationing power so that it will get to every household.
The residents threatened to protest to PHED office at D-Line if the company does not provide the area with electricity.
