Epileptic power: Fashola appeals for understanding

Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, yesterday appealed to the public to exercise patience in their bid to enjoy dividends of power sector reforms.


Fashola made the appeal in Lagos at the closing ceremony of the 7th Lagos Economic Summit, tagged: “Ehingbeti,’’

According to him, the privatisation of the power sector will not be successful without the cooperation of investors and consumers.

He urged the public to develop energy conservation culture and manage existing power infrastructure adequately.

“We should desist from illegal connections of electricity and ensure that our bills are paid appropriately. Electricity poles should not be used as speed breakers by reckless drivers; we should all protect the infrastructure from being damaged,’’ he said.
