Two workers of Ikeja Electric Company, Bassey Iboro and Femi Abodurin narrowly escaped death when they attempted to disconnect the service wires of some residents owing electricity bills. They were allegedly brutally attacked by the angry residents who claimed that they kept bringing bills without giving them light and yet wanted to disconnect them.

The incident happened at Aina Street in Orisumbare area of Shasha, Lagos, where the victims went to disconnect the residents over electricity bills. It was gathered that the victims visited the area with their ladders and attempted to climb the electric poles to disconnect wires before the residents mobilised and attacked them before they narrowly escaped.

He however, pleaded not guilty.

The Presiding Magistrate, Mr. K.J. Layeni granted Adetoye bail in the sum of N100,000 with one surety in like sum.

It was revealed that there had been epileptic supply of electricity in the area, yet outrageous bills were being sent to the residents to pay every month.
