Commission, Civil Defence Corps Partner On Kogi Electricity Facilities

Kogi State Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) has called for continued partnership and collaboration with the state command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in safeguarding facilities at the state’s electricity sector against vandalism.

Head of  public affairs at KERC, Alhaji Ali Atabor, said the appeal was made on Thursday in Lokoja during a courtesy visit by KERC’s chairman/CEO, Engr. Ibrahim S. Abdwaaris, to the new NSCDC state commandant, Mr. Olumide Aletan.

Abdwaaris urged the NSCDC to sustain the support and cooperation it had provided, saying  such collaboration was key to achieving one of the core mandates.

He described the NSCDC as a “worthy partner” and credited its proactive engagement particularly the special task force team on electricity theft and other related offences as part of the successes recorded by the commission in building hope for energy security and investment drive.
