The Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) has reportedly terminated the employment of over 800 staff members, marking one of the biggest workforce reductions in Nigeria’s power sector this year.
The mass layoff is said to be part of a restructuring exercise aimed at improving efficiency and cutting operational costs amid ongoing financial challenges.
Sources within the company revealed that affected workers were from various departments, including operations, technical, and customer service units.
The development has sparked mixed reactions among employees and industry observers, raising concerns about the future of job security in the energy sector.
