Dear Editor,
I’m sharing this issue publicly, as a last resort, out of desperation!
The property at 32 Third St., Alberttown has been plagued with electricity/ voltage fluctuations for some months now (incidentally, a neighbour was overheard making the same complaints). An electrician was called in, and after numerous checks, he concluded that this was/is a Guyana Power and Light (GPL) issue!
We called GPL, and to their credit, they responded promptly. After careful examination, they found that there was an undersized supply line connecting several houses, and this needed to be rectified! Nothing was done, so GPL was called again. They came again and made some checks…but nothing was done! Then we heard via the grapevine that GPL has no wire! Really? What are we supposed to do now? Are they waiting for a fire alarm (God forbid)!
I sincerely hope that this problem can be rectified soonest!
