The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company, AEDC, has vowed to take a tough stance against energy theft and illegal connections amid a surge in the menace in Nigeria’s power sector industry.
The acting Managing Director of AEDC, Victor Ojelabi, disclosed this in a recent interactive section with journalists in Abuja.
In a statement outlining its recent initiatives, the disco reiterates its commitment to tackling challenges affecting effective electricity supply in Nigeria.
“AEDC is taking a strong stance against energy theft through increased vigilance and “night raids” to identify and address illegal connections. This will ensure fairer billing for all customers and reduce system losses,” the disco said.
This comes as the firm noted that it will continue to facilitate the Federal Government of Nigeria’s mass metering programme.
The company further said: “We are facilitating the distribution of meters to unmetered customers. I encourage our customers to apply for meters through AEDC’s streamlined application process to benefit from accurate and fair billing.”
According to AEDC, its Token Identifier (TID) rollover is ongoing to enhance the integrity and functionality of prepaid meters.
“This initiative is crucial for accurate billing and updating the meter software security. The global termination date for the TID rollover is 30th November 2024. However, our target is to ensure all customers are rolled over by July 31, 2024,” the company stated.
