The officials of the BEDC affected by this notice are Manager Consumer Services, Mrs. Martha Williams, and Auditor Billy Afolabi.
In 2018, the court presided over by Mrs. M. Iluobe directed the defendants/respondents to restore electricity supply to four flats of an applicant at 19 Ugiayugbo Street, off Akenzua Street in Benin City
Mr. Portly Osagie had taken BEDC to court for disconnecting electricity to flats without notice in 2016.
The court made clear that unless BEDC and its officials obeyed the directive contained in their order, they would be guilty of contempt of court and face prosecution.
