Yesterday native doctors, civil society,  and other electricity consumers took to the street of Benin city,  Edo state to protest against the supposed plan of the electricity company to renew it operational licence. 

Public relations Officer of Edo state Civil Society Organizations (EDOSCO), Osaze Edigin said the peaceful demonstration which will last for 3 days is to draw the attention to the incompetence of the distribution company.
He further said  the performance agreement the company entered with the Federal government would elapse on the 31st of October, 2018 and not the proposed extension to December 2019 by BPP. 

BEDC operational licence must not be renewed BPP and and NERC cannot be compromised.  

The protesters said, "Today we are in collaboration with other interest groups and stake holders, reaffirming our stand that the operators of the BEDC do not deserve an extension or renewal of operational licence of even a day after the supposed expiry date. 
"we vehemently object to it and sue the BPP and NERC to pursue the happiness of the people whom they swore to serve".
"The BPP and NERC should not display the posture that suggests that they have been compromised by the DISCO's as Nigerians in Edo, Delta, Ondo and Ekiti are seriously expectant of the non extension and renewal of the licence of Vigeo Holdings Limited, the operators of the operators of the Benin electricity distribution company BEDC".
