The federal government is ready to meet another major requirement of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) by addressing electricity theft.
The Power Division has instructed all electricity distribution companies (Discos) to obtain affidavits from their officers and staff confirming no electricity theft.
A circular issued by the Power Division warns that Disco officials and staff could face dismissal if electricity theft is proven in their areas.
Officials from the Power Division stated that the IMF has requested strict measures to combat power theft.
