Residents of the Itire-Ikate/Ijesha, Lagos State, comprising over 20 streets, had mobilised to the Marina, Lagos Island head office of the company to protest insensitivity of the Mushin Business District to their plight.
They lamented that members of staff were in the habit of extorting money from them before rendering any form of assistance.
They also complained of poor services, estimated billings and general poor attitude of the company staff to their customers.
