PRESS STATEMENT
 
WHAT NEC DISCUSSED REGARDING DISCOS
 
We have read some misleading media reports regarding the deliberations of the National Economic Council on the issue of the ownership of electricity Distribution Companies, DisCos, at its meeting yesterday. Some of the erroneous reports was a headline that said: “FG May Take Over DisCos.”
 
For the purposes of clarity and accurate records, the ONLY issue which came up for discussions at NEC yesterday was about the quantum of State governments’ interests, if any, in the 40% shares retained by the Nigerian Government in each of the DisCos at the point of privatization. A Committee was then constituted to review historical records and advise the Council accordingly.

It would interest you to know that iKEDC have stopped monthly reading of meter for billings

They doubled the charges four months ago and from then on they have given consumers the same amount four the past four months

They no longer deliver the bills physically as it is now done through message
