Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) says it has lost over N260 million to the activities of vandals across Kano, Katsina and Jigawa States in three months.
According to the Management, there have been rampant cases of transformers and transformer oil vandalism and theft which is worrisome across its franchise areas.
This was contained in a statement issued by KEDCO Head, Corporate Communications, Ibrahim Sani Shawai and sent to Solacebase on Friday.
‘’We are working tirelessly to secure our network through massive infrastructural investment as well as maintenance, in order to serve our numerous customers better, but vandals are sabotaging these efforts,’’ said the statement.

‘’This has been responsible for the recent lack of supply in some locations and we won’t take that anymore. In this regard, we are calling for communal vigilance to help protect KEDCO’s installations against these economic saboteurs.’’
The statement said, ’’We are making the appeal to the general public because the vandals are taking advantage of the weather to commit these economic crimes and that’s why we are calling on the public to help us serve them better by protecting and reporting suspected attempts to security personnel.’’
‘’In this light, we wish to issue a stern warning to anyone still vandalizing our transformers and stealing the oil to desist from it as KEDCO will no longer tolerate such lawless acts as anyone caught will be prosecuted accordingly.’’
