West Power & Gas Limited (WPG), the majority shareholder of Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC), has terminated the employment of former managing director, Tinuade Sanda.
In a letter dated April 17, 2024, signed by WPG Chairman Charles Momoh, Sanda was informed that her services were no longer required, effective immediately.
WPG cited clause 10.2 of Sanda’s employment contract, which states that her employment can be terminated without notice. As compensation, Sanda will receive three months’ salary, which has already been deposited into her account.
Sanda is expected to return all company property, including that belonging to both WPG and EKEDC, in her possession.
This dismissal follows Sanda’s previous removal from her position as EKEDC MD/CEO on March 26, 2024, upon directive from the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC). Controversies arose over her initial termination, with some claiming a misunderstanding of NERC’s notification.
After leaving EKEDC, Sanda returned to WPG. However, she has now been dismissed once again. Rekhiat Momoh was appointed as her successor at EKEDC effective March 26, 2024. CONTINUE READING
