IBEDC opens compensation portal for Band A customers, lists 20 eligible feeders
By Aboki Forex —
Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has opened a special compensation scheme for Band A feeder customers who experienced supply shortfalls in February and March 2026. The company said eligible customers can check by visiting ibedc.com/compensationtokens and entering their Meter or Account Number.
How to check eligibility
IBEDC said the scheme is being administered under the Special Compensation Directive. Customers on Band A feeders are expected to receive a guaranteed minimum of 20 hours of electricity supply daily. The compensation covers periods when that standard was not met.
Affected customers should visit the portal and input their Meter or Account Number to confirm whether their feeder is on the eligible list and proceed with a claim. IBEDC published a full list of 20 feeders across Kwara, Ogun, Osun, and Oyo states.
The 20 eligible feeders
The list includes six feeders in Kwara: Challenge Industrial 33KV Feeder (Challenge Hub), Harmony 33KV Feeder (Baboko Hub), Agba/Shoprite 11KV Feeder (Challenge Hub), Asa 11KV Feeder (Challenge Hub), Poly 11KV Feeder (Baboko Hub), and Yidi 11KV Feeder (Challenge Hub).
In Ogun, 11 feeders are eligible: Sagamu 33KV, Ikenne 33KV, Remo 33KV, and Quantum Steel (Real) 33KV, all under Sagamu Hub; Joju 33KV and Water Works (Papalanto) 33KV under Sango Hub; NNPC 33KV under Akanran Hub; Eleweran 33KV under Ijeun Hub; Ibafo 33KV under Mowe-Ibafo Hub; and Idowa 33KV and Rite Food Quarters 11KV under Ijebu-Ode Hub.
Osun has two eligible feeders: Ikire Wasinmi 33KV under Ile-Ife Hub, and Orile-Owu 33KV. Oyo has one: Moniya Railway 33KV under Ile-Ife Hub.
Customers whose feeders do not appear on the 20-feeder list are not covered under this particular directive for the February and March 2026 period.
What it means for consumers
The compensation comes as the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) reviews electricity tariffs across all customer bands due to rising operational costs. That has raised concerns among consumers already dealing with inflation and epileptic power supply.
