Dear @EKEDP
I am a band A customer as duly confirmed by your office (see screenshot below)
Since your company did not waste time to implement the new N225/kWh, I have taken it upon myself to monitor your supply uptime and downtime hours from 12:00am 4th of April to 11:59pm 4th of April 2024.
In that 24 hours, you supplied my BAND A area with 12hour,4mins of electricity while downtime hours amounted to 11hours,55mins.
It is pertinent to note that you have charged me and others in our area who bought units after the implementation at the new rate based on the fact that we are on Band and are expected to have nothing less than 20hours of electricity supply in 24hours.
We have been charged upfront for a supposed premium service while your company has failed to honor your own part of the bargain.
The question I have which I am sure that many Nigerians you serve also have is, who pays for hours of downtime?
Am I and other Nigerians in these shoes supposed to continue to pay N225/kWh while we are getting the service expected of a Band C customer (up to 12hours uptime) ?
Your swift response will be highly appreciated before this issue is escalated to the appropriate quarters.
Here are some key points to note about Human Pappiloma Virus (HPV) and cervical cancer.

It was truly an honour to have Her Excellency Lady Valerie Fubara unveil and open the first six Integrated Management of Acute Malnutrition (IMAM) sites in Rivers State. Her role as #1 State Nutrition Champion will be critical to addressing U5 malnutrition. #Health4AllRivers
It's #CervicalCancerAwarenessMonth & it is critical to emphasize that while cervical cancer ranks as the second most common cancer among women aged 15 to 44 in Nigeria if diagnosed early & managed effectively, it is one of the most successfully treatable forms of cancer.
