Discos silent on independent metering

Okechukwu Nnodim and ‘Femi Asu

The Federal Government has said that it will not oppose the wishes of electricity consumers that are willing to pay for meters from their distribution companies based on agreement between both parties as endorsed by the power sector regulator.

But in April last year, the Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, had directed the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission to immediately wind down its alternative metering scheme, the Credited Advance Payment for Metering Initiative, which allowed customers to pay for electricity meters from their respective Discos.
He said, “Please recall that government had in the past attempted to intervene in meter supply through CAPMI, which ultimately I decided we should wind down because of the distrust and disaffection it was creating between consumers and Discos with government caught in the middle with numerous petitions by customers who paid for meters that were not delivered
within the approved time.

Confused honourable minister of darkness, these are the kind of incompetence you experience when you wasted six months to appoint a lawyer with no technical background to head three core technical ministries of a complex nation like Nigeria, all of a sudden, meter distribution has become rocket science . Rubbish

Even those that paid, them never still gree give us meter!!!
