The organised labour in Ekiti state has the alarm over the outrageous billing to residents of the state by the Benin Electricity Distribution Company(BEDC), saying people of the state can’t continue to be paying for incessant epileptic power supply. There were court judgements that had affirmed these, but BEDC didn’t care to abide by it. We are tired of all these.”Also speaking, TUC boss, Adigun added that a lot of injustices were being perpetrated by BEDC in Ekiti, which he said must be stopped. It was sad that despite court judgements concerning how billings should be done, but the BEDC is treating our courts as nothing,” Adigun said. In his response, the BEDC Human Resources Manager, Mr Patrick Akindele apologised for all the perceived mistakes in the BEDC operations in Ekiti, assuring that there would be an improvement.
