N3.7bn Electricity Projects May Be Abandoned

There are fears that power projects worth N3.7billion may be abandoned in Kaduna State.
Managing Director of the Kaduna Electricity Distribution Company (KEDC), Alhaji Idris Mohammed, who expressed the fears saturday said electricity projects under the Kaduna Electricity Distribution Company worth N3.7billion may be abandoned if the federal government fails to complete them before the eventual sale of the company to private investors.
Mohammed made the disclosure when the Minister of Power, Prof Chinedu Nebo, paid a working visit to the company. He  said lack of budgetary provision for  the projects in the  2013 budget may stall the completion of the projects.
