The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission has shut the Ikeja Electric business office in Lagos over a reported 30‑month power outage affecting 19 customers who were still being billed. FCCPC officials sealed the premises after investigations suggested prolonged service failure and possible unfair billing practices.
The commission demanded immediate remediation for affected consumers and warned other distribution companies against similar behaviour. The action highlights growing regulatory pressure on power firms to improve service quality, billing transparency and complaint resolution in a sector that directly affects business competitiveness and household welfare.
