Update: 2025-09-04
Description
For more than two weeks, a community in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has been thrown into darkness by the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC).
The company decided to cut off electricity supply to an entire neighbourhood because a few residents were allegedly involved in an assault on its officials.
This action, which is commonly practiced by DisCos,, has sparked outrage, raising a critical question: Is it justifiable for a company to punish an entire community for the actions of a few individuals?
