ikorodureporta:

How can I be paying for what I'm not using.
If they give us 24/7 supply, & I no dey house for 4days /wk, so I go still pay the useless scam bill??

zurielsam:


You don't know what you are talking about.
Where i live they use to bring a bill of almost 10k monthly despite the fact that we hardly stay at home, we go out early in the morning and come back at night. Last year we go prepaid meter, and we recharged 3k in January,we are still using that 3k till now with all the lock down that we are at home. now tell me which one is sweet

Made my research and found out that it's actually more expensive living in Ghana (93.6%) than in Nigeria and less expensive in benin and South Africa (24%) but that they (Ghana) are OK with whatever they are given doesn't mean we too should zuzu and take anything they give us

EbukaHades10:
Omo!! Be like say dem bypass una meter. 3k since January

Litmus:


LOL

But we need a wider and official one from the Office of National Statistics not your empirical one. For example you take workers across Africa in similar occupations, let’s say Uba taxi drivers or similar working in Lagos, Nairobi, Cairo, Addis Ababa, living in similar accommodations, rented or owned; take average pay and tot-up common sense expenses such as monthly cost of food shopping in Supermarkets or informal markets, if they were to buy a pair of trousers, shirt and shoes in that month in addition; utility bills, making allowances as appropriate for power cut, dry tap etc; cost of fuel and local vehicle taxes; loses due to bureaucracy and infrastructure, that sort of thing.

Anyway, thanks for the points you made.

Where did you see this picture �

agukings:
Your company is exploiting us . I use prepaid meter and i bought credit on the 28/09/2020 and was charged #50.85 per KWA.

Philipxxxx0:
If you have prepaid meter, dont suffer yourself, bypassing it by 6pm until 6am is sure everyday, by doing that you can use only 1000 naria per month, in the morning off your fridge or heater, do it for one year, come and thanks me later.

alizma:
I think there should be a protest for prepaid metre to be installed in houses

Overthemoonman:

The following is going to enrage some of you but here goes: you Nigerians have been living too free in Nigeria and have grown spoiled and entitled. Majority of you are ignorant of true state of the world. Government has been thin on the ground. In spite of SARS, Nigerians live lawlessly and have done for too long. You people barley pay taxes. You drive cars without going to driving schools, meaning majority of your driving license are forgery. You guys with vehicles don’t pay insurance. You people don’t pay for road maintenance. You people build homes illegally. Erect buildings and structure where you want. You piss and shit where you like, without police harassment, when even if facilities are absent you could still ease yourselves with a little consideration for others and your environment. When you own business you often sell unlawful stuff in an unregulated market. Regulated markets are taxed. Nigerians go into the bush and hunt animals many of them animals on the endangered list that are unlawful to kill. Chemists sell outdated meds, without penalty from the law. Majority of you are not even Nigerians for you have no evidence such as birth certificates indicating where you were born. You pay virtually nothing for fuel. The list is endless. You all owe Nigeria a great deal but this truth is drowned out in the general rabbleous and ignorant noises you make about some mystical oppression, when your true oppressors is the limit ignorance has placed on some of you minds, depriving you of the ability to see opportunities that abound everywhere in that country Although, how one is oppressed in a nation that is effectively without functioning police, judiciary or tax system – the very definition of the perfect Free State – is beyond me.

One day you people will work yourself up into a lather of such rage, you will destroy Nigeria and then you people will go and live in other nations and pay bills at a higher rate than ever dreamt of in Nigeria.

My own question is how did they arrive at the questionable rate of N23-N53/kwh for some areas
It is still the same and same, all geared towards ensuring we pay the astronomic old estimated bill rate one way or the other. Let us say currently, I am using a post-paid meter and the monthly usage rate thet bring as bill is >700kwh. If in actual sense I use this amount of power which is questionable, by the time I am given my prepaid meter; 1 thousand unit will equate to N53,000 every month thereby making it a win win situation for them. Are the other West African countries we are allegedly supplying power paying so much for a unit of energy
