Kaduna Electric announced that it had since started refunding customers who bought meters under the Meter Asset Provider (MAP) scheme.

The company disclosed this in a statement issued in Kaduna and signed by its spokesman, Abdulazeez Abdullahi.

“Management is delighted to inform its esteemed customers that it has since commenced the repayment of the cost of meters to customers who purchased their meters through the MAP Scheme,” said the statement.

The statement said the repayment for the cost of the meters was in instalments through energy tokens when a customer purchased in line with the directives of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC).

It added that the repayment would be completed in 36 months from the commencement date of the first instalment.

Earlier this month, NERC reviewed the costs of single-phase and three-phase meters to N88,123 and N154,622 (VAT inclusive).

With the new development, Kaduna Electric advised customers to purchase their meters through its MAP vendors.
