Geregu Power, a leading power generation company (GenCo) in Nigeria, is the first electricity company to be listed on the NGX Main Board, a listing segment for well-established companies with demonstrable records of accomplishments.

The listing of Geregu’s shares has added N250 billion to the market  capitalisation of NGX, further boosting liquidity in the Nigerian capital market and providing opportunities  for wealth creation.

However, amid high investors’ demand, Geregu Power’s stock gained 10 per cent which amounts to N10 on its first trading day on the NGX to close at N110 per share from N100 per share it was listed by introduction.

The gain pushed its market capitalisation to N275 billion from the N250 billiion it was listed.
