The Sokoto State chapter of National Union of Electricity Employee (NUEE) has threatened to withdraw its members from all PHCN’s formations, which might cause a total blackout across the state till further notice. This followed the alleged beating up of one of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) Business Managers in Sokoto State.
The PHCN authority in the state, Daily Sun gathered, had also continued a mass disconnection of power supply to all state government institutions, including state hospitals and other establishments across the state over payment default, apparently a retaliatory move against the state government. In a statement signed by the union chairman and secretary, Abubakar Sani and Yusuf Abdulkarim respectively, the union stated that the decision to withdraw its staff followed the recent alleged harassment of PHCN officials by the state governor and his security aides.
According to the statement, “Report reaching us from Sokoto Business Unit revealed that on October 20, 2012, the state Governor, Alhaji Aliyu Wamakko invited the two Business Managers of Marina and Gwiwa with other two PHCN staff to his house in respect of the Wamakko township 2.5MVA transformer.”
“Thereafter, the governor personally assaulted the Business Manager and two other staff who were mercilessly beaten and finally handed over to his personal security for further assault and torture.” All PHCN staff in the state are under intimidation and are no longer secure in carrying out their legitimate duties.
“In view of the above, the state executive council of NUEE resolved to withdraw our staff from PHCN formations and to cause a total blackout across the state till further notice,” But how can a Governor act like this? Power truly intoxicates
