On Tuesday, the management of Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) entered into a partnership with iRecharge Technology to block payment leakages and facilitate electricity bill payments.

KEDCO boss Abubakar Yusuf expressed delight over the partnership, urging customers to embrace the initiative. He described the iRecharge payment platform as a positive milestone deployed to allow customers to pay their bills with convenience.

According to the KEDCO boss, the initiative marks the beginning of a new era for the electricity distribution firm as it embarks on a strategic partnership with iRecharge Tech.

“Today, KEDCO is adding a new dimension to its digital solutions by embarking on a promising and exciting journey that will ultimately reposition our company’s revenue drive. It will also support our efforts towards the reduction of commercial and collection losses.

“Our collaboration with iRecharge Technology signifies our commitment to leveraging technology for enhanced service delivery, plugging revenue leakages, and ultimately providing better payment solutions’’ he said.

He was hopeful that the partnership would not only streamline the company’s operation and improve collections but also enhance customer satisfaction.

Abubakar Mohammed, the chief growth officer of iRecharge, demonstrated the payment solution, explaining that the iRecharge payment platform is the easiest and smartest way to pay electricity bills.
