The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) has sternly warned 86 government agencies and departments, including the Presidential Villa, CBN Governor, EFCC, FIRS, FAAN, and various ministries, to settle outstanding electricity bills totaling N47.1 billion within the next ten days.
Failure to comply will result in disconnection effective Wednesday, 28th February, 2024, as stated in the notice issued on Monday by AEDC.
“The Abuja Electricity Distribution PLC is constrained to do this publication with the details of Government, Ministries, Departments and Agencies with long outstanding unpaid bills for services rendered to them through the provision of electricity supply in that our previous attempts to make them honour their obligations have not achieved the desired results.
“The relevant MDAs are hereby given notice that the AEDC shall after the expiration of 10 days from the date of this publication, that is, after Wednesday, 28th February, 2024, embark on the disconnection of my our services to them until they discharge their obligations to us by paying their debts,” the notice read.
