The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company has attributed the power outage being experienced in its franchise areas to the Nigeria Labour Congress two-day warning strike.
The management of the Electricity distribution Company made this known in a statement it issued in Abuja on Tuesday.
It said: “We are aware of the general power outage being experienced across our franchise, this is due to enforcement of the two-day warning strike embarked upon by the labour union.
“We apologise for any inconvenience you may be experiencing as a result of this, as we continue our engagement with key stakeholders toward minimising the impact of the strike on our customers.”
The AEDC urge their customers to take necessary precautions to manage the outage effectively.
The company advised its customer to unplug sensitive electronic devices and appliances from power sources pending the restoration of power.
