The Energy Fiji Limited’s infrastructure has suffered damages especially in the Western Division and some parts of the Central Division.

EFL Chief Executive, Hasmukh Patel says this was caused by the continuous heavy rain and floods brought about by TD03F which later developed into Tropical Cyclone Cody.

Patel says some fallen power lines are still down and Fijians are urged to stay away from it and alert EFL as soon as possible.
