EEDC cancels planned 10 days power outage in Enugu

The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company, EEDC, has announced the cancellation of the planned 10-day power outage earlier scheduled to affect parts of Enugu State.

The company said the outage, which was initially fixed to run from Wednesday, October 22, to Friday, October 31, 2025, between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. daily, has been suspended due to unforeseen technical constraints.

The planned outage was to affect several 33KV feeders on a rotational basis, including Kingsway Lines 1 and 2, Emene Industrial Lines 1 and 2, Thinkers Corner, Trans-Ekulu, Ugwuogo, and Ituku Ozalla.

Ezeh added that a new schedule for the maintenance exercise will be announced once confirmed, while apologising to customers for any inconvenience caused by the change.
