The management of the University of Benin, Edo State has alerted students that it will be unable to provide electricity to them due to the high cost of diesel.
This was made known in a circular signed by the Dean of Student Affairs, Professor Clement Atewe Ighodaro on Saturday stating that the Benin Electricity Distribution Company, BEDC, will disrupt power from 13th November 2023 to 7th January 2024.
It warned that the management may not be able to provide alternative power supply throughout the period.
Recall that diesel is over a thousand naira per liter, a situation which has caused a lot of hardship to companies and corporations.
