FCCPC Seals Ikeja Electric HQ Over Consumer Rights Violations

The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) sealed the headquarters of Ikeja Electric Distribution Company due to alleged violations of consumer rights. The company failed to comply with regulatory directives from the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), leading to a lack of power supply for affected residential units for over two years.

Social media users criticized Ikeja Electric's customer service approach. Ikeja Electric's corporate communications head, Kingsley Okoti, expressed surprise at the FCCPC's action, stating ongoing discussions with the regulatory body.
