Transcorp Power Approved as Preferred Bidder for Abuja Electricity DisCo | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Transcorp Power has been approved as the preferred bidder for the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC).

The approval was given by the National Council on Privatisation (NCP).

It was revealed that the development was a significant breakthrough in the country’s power sector, which has been lacking private sector finance.

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo made the announcement on Tuesday.

He said:

“A major breakthrough of our privatisation process, which of course, as you know, started in 2005-2006, was and has been inadequate of private investments and real cash injections.

“From the time we started, an indigenous firm such as Transcorp Power and Heirs Holding have been making significant investments such as this 100 percent acquisition of installed capacity Afam Power Plc and Afam Three Fast Power Limited, jointly referred to as Afam GenCo. The acquisition cost, I am sure you have heard already, is N105.3 trillion.

“Only yesterday, the national council on privatisation (NCP) formally delisted Transcorp Power Plc, formerly known as Ughelli Power Plc, from routine monitoring and evaluation by the BPE, indicating yet another successful power investment.

“I can say the last few days belong to Transcorp Power because at the meeting of the national council on privatisation (NCP), the council approved Transcorp Power Consortium as the preferred bidder of the acquisition of the Abuja Distribution Company.”

In December 2021, United Bank of Africa (UBA) took over Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC) due to the inability of its major stakeholder, Kann Consortium, to service the one hundred and twenty-two million dollars ($122) debt owed to the bank.

Consortium had secured a loan from UBA to acquire AEDC in 2013, making it hold a 60 percent stake in the DisCo.

Unfortunately, in April 2023, the bank announced that it would sell AEDC to recover the pending debt.
