Following the
demand by Hoteliers in Port Harcourt to be disconnected from the service of the
Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company, PHED, over what they described
as over estimated billing, PHED says it does not disconnect customers' based on
request.
The Corporate
Communications Manager of PHED, Mr. Jonah Ibomah who made this known in an
interview said what they could do was to help
hotels manage their energy consumption which PHED had communicated to them in
writing.
On the issue of power outage in most
parts of the State, Mr. Ibomah said presently, the amount of power allocated to PHED from the national grid has dropped
to zero from the 30megawatts it was on Saturday.
He
said it was a national issue and that only areas powered by gas turbine would
have electricity supply.
The PHED Corporate
Communications Manager said the situation will change as soon as the national
grid improves.
