Buying the meter is akin to leasing it. That's the more reason it should be free.

Government can't keep paying subsidies on your electricity and electricity meter prices for ever. Even in the UK, dozens of energy companies have declared bankruptcy and returned their licences.
This ungodly subsidy for the haves enjoying in the cities and towns is a human right abuse of the economic right of the 'have not' citizens in the villages.

Poor folks in the villages without roads, hospitals, ambulances, pipe borne water and electricity are the ones they are cheating for as long as only Nigerians in the cities benefit from these multibillion naira electricity subsidies. Government should scrap all these subsidies or give equivalents of the subsidies to those poor folks in the villages without roads and electricity.

Are u telling me that it's because of electricity subsidy that makes govt not to have money to provide "roads, hospitals, ambulances, pipe borne water and electricity" for rural dwellers?

All you wrote would have made sense if this government is performing well in it's core functions of providing security, making the right economic policies and providing infrastructures. But , this is a government that has abdicated all it's duties yet some people are making justifications for this maladministration

Electricity meters are a property of electricity companies. They are to meter you to measure your consumption, and you are to pay for what you consume, not for their meters, cables, poles etc
Here, people even pay for transformers

Why not just leave importation or manufature of meters to anyone interested? I trust my blodas will sell meters for 10k.
What is the big deal sef, go to aliexpress and see meters for $10-15.
Imagine if you are improving 10,000 units how the price will drop from the chinese factories.
Everything here is a scam sha.

Smh. Go and ask people in the UK who recieved 'Free' installed prepaid meter in their residences the hell they are going through. To remove that 'Free' prepaid meter costs £90! how is it free ? No country in the world should keep our kind of ungodly subsidy system skewed against the larger proportion of the citizens living in the villages. It's unfair! If you want to keep enjoying your free subsidies, give the villagers their own equivalent of subsidies!
