No fewer than 43,400 workers of Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) are eligible for severance benefit, the Ministry of Power has said.

The Special Assistant on Media and Communication to the Minister of Power, Kande Daniel disclosed this on Sunday.


She said, “The committee, headed by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Power, Amb. Godknows Igali, has cleared over 43,400 workers for the payment of the benefits.”

She said that this figure constituted nearly 93 per cent of total workforce of PHCN.

Ms Daniel said that the committee was still working on the records of the remaining workers to clarify various issues.

The special assistant said that the committee commended the workers for their patience and cooperation.

“The Implementation Committee for the Settlement of Entitlements of Workers of PHCN has commended the high level of cooperation of the workers.

“Their records have passed biometrics test and have been issued benefit statements showing their expected terminal benefits.

“They are to make necessary correction and return the statements to the committee within one week,’’ Ms Daniel said.

She said that the committee members embarked on sensitisation tour in the different geographical zones to enable the workers understand the process of computation.

The special assistant said that the sensitisation tour had been very useful and had produced feed backs.

The members of the committee comprise representatives of unions in the electricity industry and those of the Federal Government.

On the government team are representatives of the Minister of Labour, the Accountant-General and Auditor-General of the Federation, while Mr Igali is the Chairman of the committee.

The Minister of Power, Chinedu Nebo, had earlier said that payment of severance benefits to the workers would begin on June 17 after the completion of the verification processes.

PHCN staff will soon turn to beggars, coz whatever u sow shall be reap.
Their life will be as that of NITEL workers except those that work according to ethics.

Over 43,000 people who were promptly paid for years and yet Nigerians can't boast of constant electricity. Same thing with NITEL....Anyway, lesson well learned. The difference between the British NHS and NEPA or NITEL or any other government service is that in the latter, the concept of meritocracy doesn't exist.

They should pay these people and hand over to investors. It is taking too long already.

43,000 people working to generate less that 3000 MW of electicity ?

Imagine how much of their budget goes to official cars , house rent, etc of these people?

When GEJ is done with NEPA, he should move into NNPC, I am sure those ones will be more than 100,000

Easy now! Some of us have family members and friends working with PHCN.
Some of the policies that led to the system not working weren't made by them
Re: 43,400 PHCN Workers Cleared For Payment Of Severance Entitlement by Nobody: 1:07pm On Jun 25, 2013
So how much longer do i have to wait for the investors to take over? I applied for a prepaid meter, this's the 8th month and have not seen one. I went to complain about their irrational assumption that i consume 420kw per month and they said there's nothing i can do about it and that it's the same for all households whose consumptions are not metered. I showed the paper evidence of meter application and was told no more supply of meter until the investors take over. So in the meantime, i'll continue to pay a fixed rate. This guys are trying to rip us up before they leave.
