Kingsley Okotie, the spokesperson for the Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company (IKEDC), has confirmed an early morning invasion by more than 12 personnel from the Air Force base at Sam Ethnan Barracks in Ikeja, Lagos.
According to Okotie, who spoke to Vanguard on the phone, over 12 personnel stormed the IKEDC office with their truck and began flogging the company’s staff. He said, “They came in with their truck, beating the staff of our company. They even took my laptop, and now most staff can’t find their phones since they left. They came in around 8 a.m. this morning, Thursday, March 6th, 2025.”
Explaining the reason for their invasion, Okotie added, “We disconnected their electricity 10 days ago because they are owing us over N4 billion; they were disconnected, and this is what we got.
“They molested and assaulted our staff. They went away with about 16 of our vehicles with our drivers driving them at one point; they destroyed all our offices, stole laptops and phones, and destroyed all our IT infrastructure, blinding all the cameras and CCTV”.
