The House of Representatives Committee on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has summoned electricity distribution companies (DISCOs) and the generation companies (GENCOs) over failure to perform their corporate social responsibility commitments in host communities.

The House of Representatives Committee on Corporate Social Responsibility has summoned electricity distribution companies and the generation companies over failure to perform their corporate social responsibility commitments in host communities. The committee expressed displeasure over the failure of the chief executive officers of DISCOs and GENCOs to honour its invitations, NAN reports.

She also frowned at their failure to submit their five-year audited accounts and detailed information on the corporate social responsibility activities carried out within their host communities. Orogbu ordered the Clerk of the committee, Mr Emmanuel Chukwu, to send another summons to the DiSCOs and GENCOs to appear at a date in June. She stated that failure to honour the invitation would compel the committee to take appropriate measures to force them to appear before it.
