The Yola Electricity Distribution Company (YEDC) has started distributing 1,880 prepaid meters to its Band A customers as part of the Meter Asset Funds (MAF) Scheme.
This initiative follows the removal of electricity subsidies for Band A customers in April and aims to ensure fair billing and enhance customer service.
Under the scheme, YEDC will install 1,500 single-phase and 380 three-phase meters at no cost to the customers.
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission has approved the project, which will take place from November 18 to November 30, 2024.
The installation will be carried out by approved vendors.
The MAF project, part of the broader Presidential Metering Initiative launched earlier in 2024, is designed to speed up the nationwide rollout of meters.
YEDC encouraged all Band A customers to cooperate with the installers to ensure a smooth process.
The company remains committed to providing transparent, reliable electricity services to all its customers.
