The management of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) Plc has felicitated with its esteemed customers and all Muslim faithful on the celebration of Eid-el- Kabir.
In a goodwill message, the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the energy company, Engr. John Ayodele, said his organisation will ensure that its services are not disrupted by the celebration.
According to him, the technical crew members are available to rectify any faults that may arise during this period, saying “customers can reach us via our customers care lines, 0700123999, or email [email protected] through the holidays to make enquiries or report faults.”
He stated that the Eid-el-Kabir offers the opportunity for a sober reflection on the virtues of sacrifice and loyalty, emphasising that “these virtues should remain our guiding principles throughout the festival and beyond for a better Nigeria.
Engr. Ayodele further appealed to customers and Nigerians, in general, to strictly observe the COVID-19 precautionary measures as recommended by the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) of wearing face masks in public places, regular hand washing or use of sanitizers and physical distancing during the Sallah celebration and beyond; because only a collective effort can help to overcome the Coronavirus scourge.
He advised motorists to avoid driving under the influence of alcohol and observe traffic rules to prevent collision with electric poles and other forms of accidents.
The energy expert also implored customers to take advantage of the company’s hassle-free payment platforms; Fetswallet, Quick teller, etransact, Payarena, ATM, Jumia and USSD to pay their electricity bills promptly and vend to ensure uninterrupted power supply during the public holidays.
