In related news, Legit.ng had previously reported that the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, had urged the Benin Electricity Distribution Company (BEDC) to publicly disclose the names of individuals or entities who owe the company debts.
This directive was issued during a meeting between the minister and the BEDC management while inspecting power projects in Benin, the state capital.
Adelabu stated that disclosing the names of the company's debtors is justified since electricity supply comes at a cost and is not provided for free.
