The Acting Zonal Director of the Enugu Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Aisha Abubakar, Esq., has commended Mainpower Electricity Distribution Limited (MEDL) for its improved service quality in Enugu and prompt response to fault clearing.

 

Mainpower, a subsidiary of the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company PLC (EEDC), oversees electricity distribution within Enugu State.

 

The commendation came during a courtesy visit by the Managing Director of Mainpower, Dr. Ernest Mupwaya, who led his management team to the EFCC’s Enugu Command to strengthen collaboration and build strategic partnerships with key stakeholders.

 

Dr. Mupwaya applauded the EFCC for its relentless efforts in combating economic crimes. He also drew attention to challenges confronting the company, including habitual non-payment of electricity bills, energy theft, meter bypass, illegal connections, and vandalism, issues he described as acts of economic sabotage.
