The Management of the Electricity Distribution and Supply Authority (EDSA) has updated the public on the attack on its 161 Substation in Kingtom, Freetown.
The network infrastructure of EDSA at 161 Station was recently attacked by unknown prople leading to the destruction of some accessories attached to its transformer two which resulted to a reduced supply capacity.
The Authority has informed through a release that the maintenance and repair works of the damages have been completed.
The Authority said in order to ensure the smooth and stable operation of the affected transformer, it is technically essential for them to ensure that the repaired transformer is filled with 15,000 liters of purified oil and is allowed to go through the purification process in order to drive efficiency in operation and to avoid breakdowns.
The Authority therefore informed that purification process has commenced, and it is estimated that the process will be completed within a day or two.
The Authority concluded by pleading with customers to show patience and understanding during this challenging moment while it promises to restore normal supply with additional 27 Megawatts upon completion of the purification process.
God will punish all those people that damage the substation
These are just mere absolete execuses, EDSA is not ready to say the truth. The same execuses over the years. Does these stations have no security personnel?
Good morning my people, and merry christmas to us all. OMG, attacked on electricity supply by some sierra leoneans. Those people have dark hearts. They don’t really need to exist in our country. May almighty God destroy such people from sierra leone, those with such dark hearts. I am a sierra leonean, and I have the right to pray for my country. God bless SL.
It’s really obvious that they have nothing to tell us, because this is what we’ve been going through out the year, beside does the these stations have no security personnel?
Absolutely, some of you criticisers don’t fit to be a sierra leonean. How can ESDA burn transformers from Makeni region, Bo region ,western region, and they will go again trying to get another one. Absolutely stupidity behavours. Guess what, God is seeing everyone that is doing that. Same thing, blaming the president of setting up the coup. Even the Israelites did some things like that, and God killed them all, may God’s anger swallows all of you up, amen. I am a sierra leonean, and have the right to defend my countru. May God bless SL.
