Oduntan made this disclosure in an interview with Arise TV on Sunday, adding that the government needs to play its part to provide an enabling environment for energy distributors in the country.  

According to the executive director, the total debt owed by the Ministry, Agency and Departments (MDAs) is N100 billion.  

Oduntan pointed out that the recent payment of debts by the presidential villa to the Abuja electricity distribution company could have been avoided had the government been timely in settling its electricity bills.
