The Kaduna Electric Distribution Company

renewed bid to shore up power supply to its
390,000 customers in Sokoto, Kebbi, Kaduna and
Zamfara States.
The Managing Director of the firm, Mr Garba
Haruna, disclosed this to the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN), in Sokoto on Monday on the
sideline of a two-day Induction of 1,020 of the
new employees.
Haruna, represented by the Director, Engineering
and Technical Services of the company, Mr Bello
Musa, added that ``such a boost of power supply
is expected to create 15,000 indirect jobs in the
four states.''
According to him, the new members of staff
have qualifications ranging from diplomas to
degrees and would be in charge of all the
activities of the firm.
``The company is wholly private sector driven
and anything short of hard work, dedication and
commitment would not be condoned.
``The new workers must imbibe the company's
agenda of providing efficient, adequate and
quality services to the customers.
``We will not rest on our oars to add value to our
activities and eventually boost power supply to
the customers in the areas’’, he added.
Haruna further stated that the company would
provide over 100,000 pre-payment meters to its
customers annually.
