Lagos To Start Electricity Metre Production

Lagos State government has concluded plans to set up a
metre manufacturing line works.
Making the disclosure during the disclosure during the
inauguration of the newly built 10.4MW Alausa Power
Plant located within the state secretariat, Ikeja,
Governor Babatunde Fashola said the proposed meter
assembly line was part of the ongoing efforts by the
state government to address all the problems associated
with efficient power supply to the residents of the state.
Fashola said the meter assembly had become necessary
in order to alleviate the hardship residents faced in the
process of acquiring electricity meters while adding that
continued production and conservation were very
critical factors to ensure the people get basic utilities
like water and electricity optimally.
"We already have a transformer manufacturing plant
(El-Sewedy Electric in Badagry) and so we are going
ahead to ensure that when the power is ultimately here
the components to bring it to peoples' homes will be
available," he said.
