The Youth Wing of Dopemu Agege, on Thursday 15th of October, 2020, carried out a Peaceful Protest against extortion and exorbitant electricity charges by the IKEDC, Dopemu Branch.
The Youths numbering over 70, carried placards and peaceful protested the constant increase in electricity tariff at the branch office of Ikeja Electricity Distro in Dopemu, Lagos State.
The Youths made it clear that the protest was aimed at “liberating Dopemu residents from monthly Electricity extortion.’
AgegePulse learnt that IKEDC kept increasing their monthly estimated bills from N3, 000 up to as much as 80,000 for apartments & Shop owners who reside in a low income Community.
"We all have family financial responsibilities and cannot afford to be billed so exorbitantly each month.
It is either they reduce the Electricity Charges or they disconnect their light," Concluded by the Youths.
The Youths said the electricity bill kept increasing more than a 100 per cent every month.
"I believe that if they give us prepaid meter it will be best for us, but as long as they give us estimated billing, they will continue to exploit us",
IKEDC is using us to enrich their pockets, that is why they have refused to give us prepaid meters upon several requests by some Residents.
Dopemu Agege Youth Wing took the Peaceful Protest to Oshodi Abeokuta Express way to Express their displeasure with IKEDC Dopemu branch for extorting innocent Nigerians of their hard earned money
