Nah!! I'm just realistic. The Ghanians faced the same, now they are better for it.

The rates changed because of the exchange rate..

Are you really a Nigerian

Please let them increase it. We have to face reality, if the sector is not economically viable, we cant decent electricity.

Electricity is not viable at less than 11cents per kW hour.

I beg Nigerians to accept this hike.

CarlosTheJackal:
I don't pay them again. I just give them 1k every month as bribe

Of course, all the Discos would be reluctant to supply prepaid meters because they know that their estimated billing system is a huge fraud. My dad has been trying to get prepaid meters for all the flats in his building in Lagos but the EKEDC guys keep giving aimless excuse after aimless excuse do they can continue sending people bills of over 50-100k per month. And we think it's only the public sector that's corrupt. Even the "footsoldiers" that come with ladder to cut light don't want you to get prepaid meters cause they they know the bribes they would get from when they come disconnect would be gone.

And you fail to dwell on the fact that average Americans where cent originated from won't accept estimated billing at the expense of provision of pre paid metres.... Not to talk of collecting money for the same meter and fail to provide them..... No one is afraid of energy charge increases but I should be able to control my usage and the only way to do such is solely provision of meters and not discretionary billing

That's only in Enugu. Igbo's are famous in extortion. In Kaduna, it is still N24/kw. I just bought mine and we have 20 to 22 hours light every day.
Stop generalizing.

jossy4joseph:
BEDC has since increased their own. You can't even recharge your prepared meter for 1k again it is now 2k upward

timilehing:
BEDC charges N34+kobo per unit for prepaid since January

just4Christ:


are you really saying this. you tink the industry is not viable...dont be deceived this is one of the most viable sector in the Nigeria economy aside from oil. if not the case why the fight during privatization. this people are milking us in this country...and the poor masses will always be at d receiving end. imagine, if this sector is a priority for this government why use a lawyer and a SAN as the ministrial head...what does he know about wiring, electrical components, mega watt generation and the rest. Does it mean we dont have competent hands...i recall the den minister during Jonathan first stunt...Prof Barth Nnaji. this man recorded some improvement, if not for the cabal that pushed him out...we may possibly have gone further than where we are today. seriously speaking, the crop of leaders we have now are just interested in their pockets...they are too self centered to help this country.

easyzworld:
No now you can't compare Nigeria with the western world now. You must take basic salary into consideration and that's if you have a job and moreover we don't see light but we always see bills at the end of every month.

petkoffdrake2:
Here in my place, the phcn officials came to reset our metre card to move very fast! If within 6months we'll consume a 5k card, now its within 2months... So pathetically annoying. But we don't av light here at all though... Tomorrow is our off day(black out) its turn by turn in my area... We're really suffering here... Heat unbearable and no light. Last two yrs we beg phcn to take light sef but since last yr it has been DIRECTLY the opposite.
