Does NEPA Have Right To Go With Disconnected Wires? See me see problem by Peter532: 4:06pm On Aug 16, 2022 |
Just this year alone we've replace the wires connected to the meter close to 4 times in the compound I live in. It's not as if I don't pay my normal #1000 every month...but each time I come back home in the evening on such occasions I find out compound electricity disconnected and to make matter worst the 3 sets of wires rolled up and taken away by them. According to them, they saying we not meeting up with the bills that has accumulated years ago by previous tenants so whenever they come they always have a reason to cut the light even if we pay for that month or not... Disconnecting it is okay, but why do they always take the wire along. The only luck they have is am not always around, the day I catch them... they must to give me a valid explanation...if they are the ones that purchased those wires. |

For them to carry wire means una gbese don pass Nigeria own. There was a time they seized some peoples wire. It took a whole year before those people could retrieve their wire back. Their bill was so high. They hardly cease cable but if they do, it sure means your bill is too much. 2 Likes |

They don't have that right. Those cables used to connect the changeover switches to PHCH poles are bought by you the client and therefore what they are entitled to is disconnection of your cable from their poles, as stated in their notices. That aside, I went to court to get an affidavit and they ask me to pay 1300. I am wondering if lawyers in the house can confirm the correctness of that. |

It is so wrong to expect present tennants to clear the debts of former tennants. 2 Likes |

Mindlog: i am trying to find the exact documentation, because it is something i have come across repeatedly in the past effectively before a facility can be reconnected to utility supply, all outstanding bills must be paid. so if i have say leased a space as an eatery, then leave without paying full bills and someone else moves into the same property , all outstanding bills must be paid before the site can be reconnected https://nerc.gov.ng/ it is somewhere in this website, or at least it was some years back. I was looking for guidelines on metering and i came across it. i have been trying to find the exact page, but it may have been superseded now there is just a bland advise https://nerc.gov.ng/index.php/home/consumers/consumer-rights-obligations 11. Notify the DisCo serving you of any outstanding electricity bill before moving into new premises. very last line. with reflection, NERC has failed to enforce proper billing practice on the discos - Bills are always in the name of the first resident of a premises and never changed. so the bill is actually to the site and not the individual. if you google there are multiple articles "NERC Bars Landlords from Imposing Outstanding Bills on New Tenants" - which sidesteps the actual issue - rather than DISCOcsvoid outstanding bills, they are simply transferred. |
