Former PHCN Staff Yet to Know Fate

Staff of the defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) are yet to know their fate with the new owners, as they are yet to receive their severance letters to officially terminate their contracts with the company.
The Chairman of Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) Dr. Sam Amadi, made this known at the second general meeting of industry operators held in Abuja recently. He said as a consequence, these workers who have not yet been legitimately been engaged by the new owners have been forced to linger on in this uncertainty.
Unresolved staffing issues, he said, remain an impediment to the operations of recently privatized electricity generation and distribution companies.
Dr. Amadi, however assured operators that the commission will meet with the Bureau of Public Enterprises to provide necessary interventions for speedy resolution of the legacy staffing issues,
among others.
