RESIDENTS of Mosogar community, Ethiope West Local Government Area, Delta State, who have lived without electricity in the last seven years, have cried out that they were tired of frequently contributing money to officials of Benin Electricity Distribution Company, BEDC, to buy transformer, poles and cable wires, and yet no power.
Thousands of Mosogar inhabitants had in December, last year, in a protest against BEDC, laid siege to the busy Benin-Warri highway, causing massive gridlock to draw attention to their plight.
They said besides raising almost N20 million, including payment for outstanding bills with the 95 per cent of the bills, estimated bills, the community was still in darkness.
