Electricity Billing Crisis: 108 Meter Providers, Installers Indicate Interest – Fashola

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has stated that in response to government’s call for private sector participation in the provision and installation of smart prepaid electricity meters as a way out of the crisis arising from estimated billing in the country, 108 meter suppliers and installers had indicated interest.

Fashola made this known while responding to questions bordering on electricity supply and the estimated billing system during an interactive section at the Abuja town hall meeting of the All Progressives Congress (APC) recently held courtesy of the Buhari/Osinbajo Next Level Taskforce.

“As for electricity billing, we are as well working on it. In fact, there is a bill now that seeks to make estimated billing an offence.

“Let me also tell you that some of the policies that President Buhari has approved have allowed us to now have 108 meter suppliers and installers.

“We are going through the process with them at the moment, and we are working with the distribution companies (DisCos) to ensure success,” he said, stressing that there was no going back to the era when people were being defrauded on the alter of a programme tagged: CAPMI then.

About electricity supply, the minister said, “Work is in progress. We are very much aware that as it stands now, in some places they are getting stable power supply, while in others they are not getting enough.”
