The Eko Electricity Distribution Company (Eko Disco) has confirmed Rekhiat Momoh as its new Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer.
In March 2024, the Board of EKEDC announced the appointment of Momoh as Acting Chief Executive Officer, effective March 26, 2024. The appointment followed the redeployment of the former MD/CEO, Tinuade Sanda, back to WPG Ltd, the core investor that had seconded her to Eko Disco.
According to a statement by the company, Momoh, who hails from Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State, brings nearly three decades of experience in Nigeria’s power industry, having served across the National Electric Power Authority (NEPA), the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN), and Eko Disco.
Her extensive background spans commercial operations, marketing, distribution management, and customer service, earning her a reputation as a results-driven executive with deep institutional knowledge.
She has held several key roles within Eko Disco, including General Manager (Commercial), Assistant General Manager (Marketing), and District Manager for Orile, Mushin, and Apapa business units positions where she oversaw operational, financial, and commercial activities. Under her supervision, the company achieved a notable reduction in Aggregate Technical, Commercial, and Collection (ATC&C) losses, dropping from 32.78% in 2017 to 26.82% in 2019.
Momoh earned her OND in Business Administration and HND in Marketing from Auchi Polytechnic in 1991, followed by an MBA in Marketing from Lagos State University. She is a Fellow of both the National Institute of Marketing of Nigeria (NIMN) and the Nigerian Institute of Management (NIM), recognised in 2019 and 2020, respectively.
