He said the focus of the training should be in the areas of, “installation of meters, revenue protection, training of linesmen as well as the technical subsect of the company”.

Bakori explained that the energy sector was having serious issues of generational gaps as the “experienced linesmen that know all safety protocols and procedures have overtime left the system.”
