The Management of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) in Osun region has debunked an online report that the company intentionally load-shed its customers in some areas in Osogbo.
According to the Public Relations Officer of the IBEDC in Osun, Mrs Kikelomo Owoeye, the company would not load-shed its customers because of some people who are engaging in illegal connection or energy theft as claimed in the report.
