According to the KEDCO boss, the initiative marks the beginning of a new era for the electricity distribution firm as it embarks on a strategic partnership with iRecharge Tech.
“Today, KEDCO is adding a new dimension to its digital solutions by embarking on a promising and exciting journey that will ultimately reposition our company’s revenue drive. It will also support our efforts towards the reduction of commercial and collection losses.
“Our collaboration with iRecharge Technology signifies our commitment to leveraging technology for enhanced service delivery, plugging revenue leakages, and ultimately providing better payment solutions’’ he said.
