Outstanding Bills: KEDCO Advises New Tenants on Conduct of Electricity Background Check

By Jabiru Hassan, Kano.

The Management of Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) has advised new tenants in Kano franchise to make electricity bills status part of their background checks before agreeing to any tenancy terms.

According to the Management, in a press statement signed and issues to our correspondent by the company’s head of corporate communications Ibrahim Sani Shawna, part of the background checks is to find out if such property (ies) they are about to move into is duly approved by KEDCO to be debt-free.

The statements added that “Not carrying out such electricity bills background check will mean any outstanding debt on the property will be borne by the new tenants and may results to disconnection if outstanding bills are not settled”.

The advice is imperative based on the prevalence of cases of outstanding bills being heaped on new tenants which is not ideal and
In this regard, intending tenants are strongly advised to visit any KEDCO offices for proper guidance to avoid any embarrassing visits upon renting any properties.

Similarly, KEDCO further urged landlords to ensure outgoing tenants settle their outstanding electricity bills before moving out of their property so that new tenants are not made to pay for services they didn’t enjoy.
