Protests erupt in Lagos over poor power supply, high bills

Lagos residents on Tuesday besieged the premises of Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company, Orile Agege District over poor power supply and incessant hike in electricity tariff.

The protesters, most of whom are residents of Oko-Oba community at Agege area of the state, said they opposed the "politicization of electricity supply" to the area.

While chanting various Anti-corruption songs, they called on the state government & the electricity regulatory authourities to intervene urgently and save their source of livelihoods.
