Press Release By University of Lagos Management On Power Situation On Campus.
The Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) notified the university, through the director of works and physical planning, that power generation has reduced considerably due to the ongoing nationwide strike by workers of Nigerian Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG) and Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN). The situation has resulted in massive load shedding across the network covered by EKEDC.
The university relies on its generator which is capable of carrying only 30% of the campus load. Pending the time the strike is called off and normalcy restored, efforts are in place to ensure proper rationing and equitable distribution of available power across the entire university.
The management thanks the entire university community for its continued cooperation.
