In a significant development, the Zamfara State Government has settled a debt of over N1 billion owed to the Kaduna Electric Distribution Company (KEDCO). This move demonstrates the government’s commitment to clearing its financial obligations and ensuring a stable power supply for its citizens.
The debt settlement is a welcome relief for the people of Zamfara State, who have likely faced challenges due to the outstanding payment. By clearing the debt, the government has taken a crucial step towards improving the state’s relationship with KEDCO and ensuring a reliable power supply.
This development is particularly notable when compared to the struggles of Kaduna State, which is served by the same electricity distribution company. Kaduna State has faced challenges in paying its electricity bills, with Kaduna Electric recently cutting power supply to the State Government House due to an outstanding debt of N2.9 billion.
The Zamfara State Government’s decision to settle its debt highlights its dedication to serving its citizens and promoting economic growth. A stable power supply is essential for businesses, industries, and households, and this development is expected to have a positive impact on the state’s economy.
By prioritizing debt settlement and maintaining a good relationship with KEDCO, the Zamfara State Government is working towards creating a more favorable environment for its citizens. This move is a testament to the government’s commitment to responsible governance and its focus on delivering essential services to the people.
