Electricity bills: AEDC urges customers to apply for prepaid meters

The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) has urged customers to apply for meters through the company’s streamlined application process to benefit from accurate and fair billing.

Victor Ojelabi, the acting chief executive officer, AEDC, stated this during a meeting with journalists in Abuja. According to him, the company was facilitating the distribution of meters to unmetered customers, as part of the Federal Government’s mass metering initiative.

He explained that AEDC was prioritising the clearance of outstanding bills to optimise service delivery and ensure operational efficiency. “This strategic move is designed to enhance our financial health, enabling us to provide more robust and reliable electricity distribution services. We appeal to all our valued customers with outstanding bills to settle them promptly.

“This is crucial in maintaining uninterrupted service delivery and ensuring that we provide reliable electricity to every household and business in our service areas,” he said.

Ojelabi said that the company has introduced key initiatives including Token Identifier (TID) Rollover, Operationalisation of vending platforms, among others to bolster service delivery and customer satisfaction.
