Ikeja Disco and seven others to be sanctioned by NERC

 
 
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) said yesterday, that as a result of their dissatisfaction with the level of implementation of the Credited Advance Payment for Metering Implementation (CAPMI), it would begin sanction of the eight Electricity Distribution Companies (discos) including Ikeja disco, which have been found wanting.
This is coming under the auspices of complains and protest by consumers who are not pleased by the consistent inaccurate metering of electricity consumed.
The NERC Head of Public Affairs,Dr. Usman Arabi, said the agency has issued the discos a seven-day ultimatum to show cause why they would not be sanctioned over non-compliance.
The agency said its decision is based on the fact that the discos have violated the terms and conditions of their licenses.
Listing the defaulters as Port Harcourt, Abuja, Yola, Enugu, Ibadan, Ikeja, Eko and Benin discos.
