She stated that arrangements had reached advanced stage and that the three communities would have their power supply restored on or before December 15.
The meeting which also had in attendance top officials of the Ekiti State Electricity Board, was called to work out an arrangement for improved power supply across the state.
Government is also working out an arrangement with BEDC for a more efficient power supply to enable it power the street lights for about 10 hours a day as against the present situation where street lights are on for just about three hours daily.
