The Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) has appealed to its customers to report anyone caught sabotaging the company’s infrastructure. 

“Customers should report cases of illegal connections, meter bypass, vandalism and other forms of sabotage, as doing this will enable us to strengthen electricity supply, improve our services and gladden the hearts of our customers as the year comes to an end.”

Spokesperson for KEDCO, Ibrahim Sani Shawai, in a statement on Tuesday warned against ativities that can threaten the current improvement in supply power being experienced across Kano state.

“For the past one week, there has been constant electricity supply with a minimum of between 14, 18 and 24 hours of supply.

“We appeal to customers to always pay their electricity bills as and when due,” Mr Shawai said, adding that KEDCO was working to improve service delivery.
