Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Juba Electricity Distribution Company (JEDCO) on Saturday started the disconnection and relocation of electricity power lines wired in close proximity to a shopping center under construction in Juba.<\/p>\n

This comes after a Facebook post by Eye Radio narrated the incident, which prompted members of the public to voice concerns regarding the transformer and electric poles around the building in Jebel Market.<\/p>\n

JEDCO said in a statement Saturday that the transformer and the distribution line connections were done in 2018 during the reconstruction and rehabilitation of the power network.<\/p>\n

The electricity distributer said the site where it is evacuating the power lines, was empty then and of no threat to public safety when it started installing the distribution lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is to inform the public that we have already met with the contractors and agreed for the network to be relocated and our team will finish the relocation by Saturday 16th December 2023,\u201d JEDCO said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe explore this opportunity to urge the public that any construction or work near to the power lines should be communicated and done in coordination with JEDCO team to assure safety of human lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs well, we thank the public, especially Eye Radio and other media outlets for notifying us of any unsafe activities in our neighborhood.\u201d<\/p>\n
