The Managing Director of EastLand Electricity Distribution Limited (EEDL), Engr. Nnamdi Chuka-Nwosu, has reaffirmed the company’s commitment to delivering improved services to customers in Ebonyi State.

Chuka-Nwosu gave the assurance in Abakaliki over the weekend, noting that the company has developed a comprehensive network enhancement plan aimed at improving service quality and reliability across the state.

He appealed for continued understanding and cooperation of customers as these improvements are implemented.

He further disclosed that efforts are underway to ensure the timely completion of the ongoing Meter Acquisition Fund (MAF) “Tranche B” metering initiative, designed to close the metering gap within Band “A” feeders.

The EEDL helmsman also highlighted the recent installation and commissioning of a brand new 500KVA transformer at Ukwuachi, following the failure of the old one.

“The transformer is serving Idembia Ishieke and environs, an area with high concentration of students of Ebonyi State University (EBSU) and this will definitely impact the wellbeing of the students positively," he said.

He called on the customers to protect the installation to ensure it is not attacked by vandals.

He frowned at the increasing cases of vandalism in the state and called for the cooperation of customers as there is no way the company can succeed without the support of its customers.

EastLand Electricity Distribution Limited is a subsidiary of the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company PLC (EEDC) responsible for electricity distribution within Ebonyi State.
