The Nigerian Electricity Management Services Agency (NEMSA) has strengthened relationship with the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN) as part of significant stride towards enhancing public awareness on electrical safety and enforcement of technical standard and regulations compliance.
Led by its Managing Director and Chief Electrical Inspector of the Federation, Engineer Aliyu Tukur Tahir to the Radio House in Abuja, NEMSA said the visit was to strengthen the Agency’s existing partnership with Radio Nigeria while advocating for broader public sensitization on the safe use of electricity.
The NEMSA chief commended the long-standing support NEMSA has received through Radio Nigeria’s platforms, especially the agency’s flagship awareness program, Service and Safety Half Hour, which has been running successfully for eight years.
He expressed appreciation for the visibility the collaboration has brought to NEMSA’s mandate which include the enforcement of technical standards, certification of meters and installations as well as protection of lives and property in Nigeria’s electricity sector.
Outlining the agency’s achievements such as the modernization of inherited assets, establishment of new field offices and meter testing laboratories, and attainment of ISO certifications, Engineer Tukur Tahir emphasised the need for deeper collaboration.
The Director General, FRCN, Dr Mohammed Bulama, while acknowledging the critical role NEMSA plays in ensuring the safety and integrity of Nigeria’s power systems, expressed Radio Nigeria’s willingness to strengthen its collaboration with NEMSA.
Dr Bulama said as a media organisation reliant on stable electricity, Radio Nigeria is directly impacted by the quality of electrical installations and infrastructure pledging stronger support for NEMSA’s mission and proposed a joint committee to explore expanded collaborations including training, local language programming and outreach across FRCN’s 45 FM stations nationwide.
