ADDIS ABABA- The restoration of power lines that pass through Humera, Welkait and Shiraro are underway, Ethiopian Electric Power (EEP) disclosed.

EEP Communication Director Moges Mekonnen told Ethiopian Press Agency (EPA) that the war- ravaged power lines that used to transmit high and low voltage are being repaired in a bid to restore power soon.

“Around 200 EEP workers are now deployed to fix the power interruption via exerting utmost efforts in Humera and Shiraro.”

As Welkait’s high voltage generator or distributor is one of the highly damaged lines, EEP workers are right now doing their level best to regain the services.

Moges indicated that every necessary preparation has been made to complete the restoration in shortest time possible.

The local community is also active in the maintaining of the restoration works, it was learnt.

He also thanked various institutions, the experts, the security personnel and the people that are working hand in glove with EEP to restore electric service in various areas.
