learnt from some of the affected landlords, tenants and business operators in the community that since April, bills had increased geometrically.
“Do we have a bakery or a cement factory here? I have applied for a prepaid meter, but these people did not give us one. A trader, Omotunde Mariam, who owns a grocery store around Journalist Estate, said her bill increased from N25,000 to N37,000, yet power supply to the community was not constant. A landlord on Pure Water Street, Yusuf Sulaimon, claimed that the company was trying to milk residents dry.Sulaimon said, “In my house, they sent a bill of N56,000 to us as if we run an industry here. But before, we were getting N20,000 or N26,000 depending on how constant they give us power.
He said, “Ikeja Electric has made it possible for customers to monitor what they consume. And look at it, we want accountability, hence Ikeja Electric’s push for prepaid meters. “I will advise those concerned to apply for prepaid meters because if they have them, we will not be talking of overbilling. At least, they will see what they use.
