Politics / Power Firms Demand 200% Increase In Tariff by abdrazak: 12:31pm On Oct 23, 2016
There may be a fresh increase of over 200 per cent in electricity tariff being paid by residential consumers if a proposal by power distribution companies to raise the average energy charge to N105 per kilowatt-hour from the current rate of 22.8KWH is approved. This is coming less than eight months after about 45 per cent increase in tariff was imposed on electricity consumers nationwide.
The power firms attributed their latest push for tariff increase to high inflation rate in the country, scarcity of foreign exchange, devaluation of the naira and the huge debts being owed them. Already, the Discos said they had hinted the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission about the proposal but no action had been taken on it yet.
The Chief Executive Officer, Association of Nigerian Electricity Distributors, an umbrella body for the Discos, Mr. Azu Obiaya, confirmed the latest agitation for tariff increase, in an interview with our correspondent, stressing that it was important to raise the tariff in order to remain in business and serve the people well. Azu said, “To review the tariff, we will be looking at an average rate of N70 per kilowatt-hour for residential consumers. But some Discos will like to have the rate as high as N105/kWh.” Each Disco has a fixed energy charge payable by its customers. The highest charge, according to documents obtained by our correspondent from NERC for the year 2016, is N32.26/KWH and this is payable by R2 consumers under the Jos Electricity Distribution Company. The lowest energy charge of N15.83/KWH is payable by R2 customers who get power from Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company. A further analysis shows that the average energy charge for all the 11 Discos is N22.8/KWH. But the Discos were said not to be comfortable with the current rate, as they argued that it was not cost reflective and was hampering the required expansion of infrastructure as well as the smooth flow of operations.
Azu, who spoke to our correspondent on the sidelines of a power dialogue in Abuja on Thursday, said the debts owed power distribution companies by private homes, businesses and government ministries, departments and agencies post-privatisation amounted to N568bn. He also stated that one reason many Discos had not metered their customers was due to the huge debts owed them, as well as the tariff issue. This, he said, had hampered the operations of the different Discos, a development that had made it difficult for the companies to meet the funds remittances required of them by the Market Operator. Obiaya said, “Discos are experiencing revenue shortfall on a monthly basis of N38bn. As of June 2016, the MDAs owed the Discos N53bn post- privatisation. “The books of the Discos are so bad that they have no chance anymore to access finance. These books do not reflect the cash flow that is necessary for them to be taken seriously by any lender.”
A senior official at NERC told our correspondent that although the Discos had been calling for an upward review in tariff, the regulator had not considered their demand. “The minor review of tariff is ongoing at present but NERC has yet to consider their plea for such increase in tariff, although the economic fundamentals in Nigeria have seriously changed and are now so high,” the official said. When contacted, the National Secretary, National Electricity Consumers Advocacy Network, Mr. Obong Eko, stated that NECAN would never support such move. He described the move as the peak of insensitivity to the flight of Nigerian masses. He said, “They’ve been flying the kite for some time now because the last time tariff review was done was when the exchange rate for one United States dollar was about N190. But now, one dollar is close to N500; and the price of gas in the international market has gone up too.
“Despite all these, it will still be so unreasonable to come out to announce an increase in tariff now that Nigerians are going through severe suffering. Are they aware that people are dying of hunger? We can never support such move and we will resist it.”

Education / Oyo Assembly Moves To Take Over LAUTECH by abdrazak: 7:35pm On Sep 22, 2016
The Oyo State House of Assembly has summoned
the state Ministry of Justice and its education
counterpart to appear on September 27 over
ownership status of Ladoke Akintola University of
Technology, Ogbomoso.
The summon followed a motion by Mrs Olawunmi
Oladeji (Ogbomoso North/LP) and co-sponsored
by nine other lawmakers at the plenary session on
Thursday.
The motion was entitled: “Reviewing the Joint
Ownership of Ladoke Akintola University of
Technology: A Step toward Sole Ownership by Oyo
State Government.”
Oladeji said the move would address the critical
issues and crisis bedevilling the institution after
Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun, co-owner,
failed to fulfil his state’s financial responsibility to
the institution.
She said, “Osun State Government has defaulted,
particularly in the payment of salaries of the
institution’s members of staff for about 15
months.
“This has made it difficult for the smooth-running
of LAUTECH.”
She said that such action has threatened the joint
ownership of the institution.
She said, “The Internally Generated Revenue of the
institution, which is meant for the payment of
gratuity, pension of retirees, as well as other
developmental projects within the university, has
been depleted.
“This is due to the fact that the money is being
used for the payment of workers’ salaries.
“This calls for the total hand-off of Osun
Government from running of the university, and
allows the Oyo State Government to take charge of
sole and full ownership.”
In his contribution, Adesina (Ibadan South-East I/
Accord), said that there was need to resolve the
issue of joint ownership of LAUTECH since Osun
has established its university and no longer ready
to fund LAUTECH.
The Chairman, House Committee on
Parliamentary Matters, Mr Olusegun Ajanaku
(Ibadan South-West II/APC), said that the issue of
LAUTECH was a national matter.
He said it was an issue that requires more work
between the two parties involved.
The lawmaker urged people of Ogbomoso to be
patient and allow amicable resolution of the issue
between the two parties.
The cosponsors include, the Deputy Speaker, Mr
Musah Abdulwasi (Saki West/APC); the majority
leader, Mr Kehinde Subair (Ibadan South-West I/
APC); Mr Peter Oyetunji (Surulere/Ogo-Oluwa/LP);
Mr Akeem Oladipo (Ibadan North West/APC) and
Mr Jimoh Akintunde (Ibarapa North & Central/
APC).
Other are, Mr Afeez Adeleke (Iseyin/Itesiwaju/
APC), Mr Fatai Adesina, Ibadan South East I/
Accord) and Mr Lukman Balogun (Oorelope/LP).

sidnazious:


My brother, which money do you want GMB to use in creating employment, improve infrastructure and security? Nigeria is dead broke.... No foreign reserves, crude sales have plummeted, even the price is nothing to write home about.

In light of this there are three ways to go about this..... Either they borrow more money and mortgage our ailing future more, increase taxes astronomically thereby suffering the citizens or they recover stolen funds which are lying fallow somewhere and meant for the country initially.

Calling in investors to develop our other resources is not an immediate solution as it will take some years to develop, build plants and so on. This action has been delayed for too long by a powerful few. Do you know that some of our resources are been mined illegally?

If you were in charge what will you do? Think critically about it before you judge.

Just my 2cents.

So because shell BP is shutting down their production due to unfavorable economic condition and the present administration`s lack of direction, and you are here spewing up blackmail. Guess, Buhari should realize that any case against shell will not be decided by his pocketed Nigerian judiciary. You guys should tell this govt to be focus oooo
By now every sensible Nigerian has come to the realization that there is something more dangerous than "corruption", "incompetence"is more dangerous than corruption...... A Man can be corrupt and still be profitable but an Incompetent man makes you lose all you are worth and jeopardize your future.....

Buhari has shown himself incompetent in all ramifications ....... The money we have lost by the crash of the Naira alone in the eight month administration of Buhari should equal and exceed all the monies that can ever be stolen by the Jonathan administration ..... Our economy has slowed down and its growth rate is now less than the 10th in Africa. The contracting nature of our economy means we have lost all the economic gains by Jonathan to such a docile government
what are the economic gain that you benefited from the last regime?

You are talking about naira losing its value. Did you know what past regime did? Sharing worth of dollars to traditional rulers to entice them. Where are those dollars? Naira is losing its value is what everyone is talking about.

When the present government is doing her best to re-structure the economy and way of living, you are spewing trash here.

Lets support this administration and rehabilitate Nigeria from its dieing stage.

13 triangles.

This is how it goes:

1. There are 9 triangles encircled into a larger triangle. i.e. 9 + 1 = 10

2. Half of the triangle + the diagonals when view from left and right. i.e. 1 + 2 = 3

3. Entire triangles = 10 + 3 = 13
