Sanda: Activist Cautions Against Smear Campaign

A rights activist, Segun Peter, has warned against smear campaigns to tarnish the reputation of the former managing director of Eko Electricity Distribution Company (Eko DisCos), Dr Tinuade Sanda and divert attention from her achievements.

In a chat with journalists, Peter said in a tenure marked by transformative leadership, Sanda has steered the Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC) to unprecedented heights, capturing the attention of stakeholders across Nigeria.

According to him, “Her impact is not only recognized by the Federal Government but also celebrated through accolades from prestigious organizations such as VANGUARD and AFRISAFE, to mention a few.

“Her strategic reforms, including the reduction of ATC AND C to 1%, have not only curbed electricity leakages but also boosted operational efficiency for EKEDC.”

The activist however decried recent media attacks on Dr Sanda’s integrity and achievements, describing it as a desperate attempt by some faceless bullies to tarnish her reputation and distract the public from her remarkable achievements, including the fraud she uncovered involving ghost workers, which she reported accordingly.

He said the attacks, including baseless claims about her qualifications and fake certificates, are devoid of truth but aimed at undermining her integrity and credibility.
