From Ibrahim Sidi Muh’d, Gusau
The management of Kaduna Electric has engaged traditional rulers and Islamic Scholars under Gusau emirate through its Regional and Gusau area offices in its bid to improve payments of energy consumed by the teeming customers across the 14 local government areas of Zamfara State.
The request for traditional rulers and Islamic Scholars participate in both the exercises of bills distribution to customers and facilitation of satisfied payments of charges for consumed energy, was conveyed by the Regional Manager in charge of Zamfara, Sokoto and Kebbi, Comrade Abdurashed Muhammad.
Comrade Muhammad notified the meeting that, Kaduna Electricity is distributing energy worth over N500 million to the teeming consumers on monthly basis but, only about N140-50 million could be generated, the development which pictured the company running at a loss in the business.
He further lamented that, the larger percentage of customers in the state are defaulters while another threatening percent is illegally consuming, the situation which knocked down all possible chances for the company to move forward in that respect.
