Due to a gas shortage that has hindered generation since January, many electricity distribution companies have been finding it difficult to provide Band A customers with 20 hours of electricity. https://punchng.com/discos-struggle-to-satisfy-band-a-customers-over-gas-shortage/ 2 Likes

Lol... Always putting the cart before the wheel!! They don't make plans before taking decisions!!! Now, they are struggling to satisfy 20hrs light for band A, but were quick to increase their tariffs.. So from now till they balance the aforementioned required minimum hours of light, the band a customer will be paying for high tarris abi Very very poor management... 107 Likes 11 Shares |

The basic problem is the 1.7trillion naira or more in debt the discos owe the gas companies. And the fact that the debt was caused by the discos not being able to charge a cost reflective tarrif. Yes discos earned a profit, but that debt to the gas companies dwarfs the profit. And gas man and woman have gotten tired of selling gas on credit Modified Anyone quoting me to abuse or troll me should answer these questions 1.Would you let government set your prices to help the poor? 2..Would you operate at a loss to help the poor? Thank you. Modified Thanks for the likes. I would also like to say that my views on the power sector are not because I support APC or PDP or LP or anyone...but the result of trying to, in May 2013, understand what the whole privatisation process was all about, and why despite all the money spent, no light. What I write here is the result of my (still ongoing) research. The sad thing is, it is going to cost a lot of money to give us light 24/7. It is a painful truth. I appreciate most of us are poor, and suffering, and also that my comment means I am sounding insensitive. Unfortunately, the cost of things does not always listen to our wallets. One hard lesson I learned during the good old days of SAP as a child. Power supply is darn expensive. We can all pretend it is due to corruption, and yes, corruption is a big issue, but it is not the main cause...it is the ultimate result of the problem of a lack of cost reflective tarrifs. KInd of sad that some nairalanders think that offering a view means that people will somehow be affected. I ain't a god. I can't change things. 93 Likes |

The way our light improved in the last two days makes me to suspect that we have been added to band A and that will be very unfair because my area is occupied by common men. 8 Likes |

Many Nigerians don't even know the extent this Band of a thing is going to affect us. The government has prioritized a particular set of people (rich people) and decided to give them close to 24hrs light but electricity generation hasn't increased by even 1mw See enh, if you no dey band A, na band Z you dey o. Government no send you. My area now na band B we dey and we suppose get 16 hrs light per day but if we see 8hrs na God do am. So, yeah that's the deep stuff we've gotten into as a country. 16 Likes |

To whom much is given, much is expected. It doesn't end with increasing tariff, can you meet up with the challenges that come with it? Many individuals will definitely go down with this charade... 3 Likes |
