MONROVIA – The House of Representatives has requested the leadership of the Liberia Electricity Corporation- LEC to appear before its leadership on Monday to address the prolonged electricity outage in River Gee County. 

Since February, the county has been without power, leaving businesses, schools, healthcare facilities, and residents struggling with the consequences of the blackout.

This lack of electricity has raised concerns about equity and development, particularly as neighboring counties such as Maryland and Grand Gedeh continue to receive uninterrupted power supply. 

A Representative of River Gee, Isaac B. Choloplay Wuo, has formally petitioned the House, urging the LEC management to provide explanations for the power disruption and to present a concrete plan for restoring electricity to the county.

Representative Wuo’s request underscores the pressing need to resolve the issue, emphasizing the hardships faced by residents and the impact on essential services. 

The upcoming appearance of LEC leadership is expected to shed light on the reasons behind the outage and provide clarity on immediate solutions.

Lawmakers will seek assurances that the county’s electricity supply will be restored without further delays. 

The situation remains a significant concern for River Gee residents, who anticipate a resolution that prioritizes their well-being and economic stability. Monday’s gathering will be crucial in determining the next steps toward addressing the county’s prolonged power crisis.
