The Management of Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO) says the company met and resolved all 13-point issues raised by the two in-house unions.
This was contained in a statement signed by Head of Corporate Communications, Ibrahim Sani Shawai.
According to the Management, the speedy resolution of issues raised was as a result of the willingness from all parties to work together in the interest of the company and workers’ welfare.
“We are committed to the wellbeing and welfare of our staff; this is why as an organisation that believes in dialogue, we invited the unions and found a common ground to improve performance as well as smoothen relations with the unions”. Shawai said
He added that “We are using this medium to reassure all KEDCO staff that we would continue to look after their welfare as well as motivate them to impact on their jobs towards the satisfaction of our numerous customers”
Yesterday, Senior Staff Association of Electricity and Allied Company (SSAEAC) and National Union of Electricity Employees (NUEE) protested over non payment of their allowances for more than a year.
