The Jos Electricity Distribution has created an additional four regions and promoted 1,600 staff of the establishment to reposition and enhance efficient services.
In a statement signed by the company Head, Corporate Communications, Dr Friday Elijah, the Managing Director, Engr. Abdu Bello Mohammed said more staff have been recruited to beef up the existing gap stressing that the Management was doing all within its wisdom to boost the economic fortune of the company.
He explained that the management decided to promote or advance virtually all the staff that had stagnated since the inception of the company in 2013.
According to the Managing Director, “We realized after painstaking research that a lot of staffers were demotivated due to lack of promotion or advancement”.
He explained further that, so many staff were denied promotion for upward of eight years stressing that the situation had contributed negatively to the performance of the company.
“It was obvious that staff were disenchanted with the situation and therefore exhibited a high premium of lackadaisical attitude to the revenue collection of the company by refusing to take ownership of their job roles”, he said.
Engr Mohammed was optimistic that with the elevation, the company’s fortune would improve tremendously.
He said that when things began to improve, all the critical stakeholders including the staff would have reasons to smile and be proud of working with the Jos Electricity Distribution.
The Managing Director also disclosed that four new regions have been created to bring the services of the company nearer to the customers. This brings to the fore a total of 12 regions.
The newly created regions are Yelwa from Bauchi, Tudun Wada from Bukuru, Doma from Gombe and West of Mines from Jos Metro.
Meanwhile, Engr Patrick Dalahol has been appointed as the Acting Head of Regional Operations following the redesignation of Engr John Emeruwa as the Chief Consultant of the company.
