NEDCo advises public to avoid using middlemen when acquiring meters

Mr John Anim Peprah, the Dormaa Area Head, Northern Electricity Distribution Company (NEDCo), has advised the public to deal directly with NEDCo officials for meter acquisition and other services without involving middlemen.

Mr Peprah gave the advice in an interview with the media at Dormaa-Ahenkro in the Dormaa Central Municipality of the Bono Region as part of NEDCo’s day three mass revenue mobilisation exercise.

He said it was rather significant for applicants to use approved channels for meter acquisition to ensure transparency and efficiency in the process.

Mr Peprah expressed satisfaction with the progress of the exercise, saying during the first and second days, NEDCo mobilised GH¢91,000.00 and GH¢92,000.00 respectively.

Giving an account of the exercise on the third day, he said some locally operated institutions and companies showed commitment in settling their indebtedness.

The Presbyterian Nursing Training School settled its debt of GH¢12,000.00 while the Dormaa Presbyterian Hospital paid GH¢20,000.00 out of its GH¢2.8 million debt, Mr Peprah said.

The rest were St Charles Farms, which paid GH¢30,000.00 out of the GH¢88,000.00 debt, Kusi Farms, GH¢20,000.00 out of GH¢40,000.00, and Gyamfi Poultry Farms cleared its entire debt of GH¢85,000.00.

The Adama Musah Dry Mill also paid its total debt of GH¢19,000.00, whereas power supply to a residential home at Kumikrom, near Dormaa-Ahenkro, amounting to GH¢2000.00 was also paid.
