According to Newspaper report NEPA is seeking govt. approval to raise its tariffs by 60%.
Why for God seek?
Despite their inefficiency, we are being asked to pay more.
What do u think?

I think we should go on strike(like that of NLC O!! not like that of the nigerian police)We should have a week black out Nigeria or something. Can you imagine paying 10-16k per month from the normal 4k-6K per month? They are better than nepa less power higher bill. To be serious i heard their boss on radio this morning. He did insinuate the increase by saying the current billing system is not acceptable. I think we should come up with alternative to PCHN!! Simple! Inverter,solar, genverter (like I read on Nairaland) or go back to the days without them or something. |

Perhaps they are asking for money so they can actually afford to build new installations? The biggest problem they probably have at the momment is people not actually paying anything  |

Do you know that people(which includes me!!) paying are no getting any relevant power, what about that? |

Yes but people not paying for electricity is a big problem I can gather (tapping into the powerlines themselves)

if they want more money,then we've got to see better services.because i think they are worst than nepa- have been experiencing lowcurrent intermittently since they came on board.   |

how can they offer better services if they can't afford to build any new stuff?

If PHCN get paid upfront they sure will still will have issues and reasons why we can't have reliable electricity.
The system need more than money.The people are its problem.If PHCN is run like a proper biz and by forward thinking people things will different.
