The Kwara State House of Assembly has summoned the management of Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IEDC) to appear before its Committee on Energy, Works and Transport to explain measures aimed at curbing alleged sharp practices in the power sector.

This followed a motion on arbitrary billing system and sharp practices by the IEDC in the state raised by a member representing Owode/Onire Constituency, AbdulRasheed Taiwo Abdullahi.

Reading the resolution of the House, the Speaker, Dr. Ali Ahmed, said the appearance of the management of IEDC, was necessary to give the distribution company fair hearing. The Speaker said members of the public would be expecting the management of the company to give reasons for overbilling consumers, delay in providing prepaid metres to consumers, procuring prepaid metres out of the country when they are being produced locally, among other things.
