The allegation has intensified public concern over accountability within state bodies as the state-owned power utility expands its campaign to combat electricity theft and improve revenue collection across Liberia. LEC officials alleged that the illegal hookup enabled the institution to consume electricity for several months without making required payments. Critics insist the administration’s credibility in fighting utility theft depends on whether the law is applied equally to public institutions, private businesses, and residential consumers alike. However, the corporation clarified that those disconnections were not linked to power theft. Furthermore, the corporation emphasized that the nationwide migration is part of a broader strategy to eliminate electricity theft, dismantle illegal connections, and reduce financial losses that have long plagued the sector.
